NEVER QUIT TRYING
Use the links (ctrl+click) on the scriptures to access the bible verses.
Some wise men say that “winners do not quit”; yet others say that “quitters never win”.
One thing is to summon up the courage to act (as we discussed last week); an often neglected detail is that success does not always come at the first try. Challenges, obstacles, and failures will happen in our journeys through life, but the stubbornly persistent will eventually succeed.
TENACIOUS TRYERS ULTIMATELY TRIUMPH!
HEROES LIVE BY DOING!
Did you overcome your fear of starting a new venture, only to see your efforts flounder and yield nothing? Have you become discouraged and given up after a few setbacks? Are you contemplating quitting? Has the journey become too painful, difficult, or daunting?
God wants you to know that He sees ALL you are going through, and that He is there with you! He wants you to know that your trials are but for a short time only, and will only build a much stronger character within you: a patient, faithful, and hardworking person. Jesus wants you to trust Him and hang on; to keep pushing regardless of the resistance you encounter, and to never look back.
If you want to eventually have success in your endeavors, then you must trust God’s promises of wisdom, strength, knowledge, counsel, help, and favor. He has promised that if we trust in Him, we will never be ashamed (Romans 10:11).
Difficulties will surely arise, but we must arise and overcome them with God’s help. We must not quit; we dare not quit!
Lesson of the Week1. Pick yourself up and fight, again and again and again (Proverbs 24:16).
2. Believe that you will eventually overcome all challenges (Psalms 118:17).
I do not care how many times I fall in my bid to succeed; what matters is that I will someday reach my goal. Jesus, through His sufferings on the Cross, has made me a winner; He will carry my burdens as I rest in Him, and will surely grant me victory at the end of it all (Matthew 11:28-30).
My mountains have been levelled, and all the crooked paths in my life have been made straight. God is fighting on my side; who then can oppose me, and win?
I will embrace my challenges with confidence, knowing that the Creator of the Universe stands by me. I will not be discouraged anymore by the physical obstructions I see, but I will walk by faith. I choose this day to trust my God and King, to strive with all my strength and faith, knowing that He who delivered the shepherd boy David from the mighty hand of Goliath will do the same for me.
I will not be weary in well doing because my God has promised me a mighty breakthrough if I do not waver (Galatians 6:9 & 2 Chronicles 15:7).
I WILL NEVER QUIT TRYING! God is with me; no man can be against be!
I claim my victory and blessings this week from my Lord Jesus: He alone gives me all things!
