HOLD FIRMLY TO HIM!

“LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD, WALK IN HIS WAYS, OBEY HIS COMMANDS, HOLD FIRMLY TO HIM, AND SERVE HIM WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART AND YOUR SOUL.” JOSHUA 22:5

Scripture tells us that we are to hold firmly to our Lord. If we were falling from a cliff and we had a grasp of the hand of a friend, we would not want to let go. We would press harder and harder to never let go of the hand. Our friend’s reaching hand is our survival tool. If we were to let go, we would fall to our death below. Many of us are on the edge of that cliff. Jesus is standing with his outreached hand to save us. We need to listen to his voice and do as he tells us. We need to live our lives with strong faith and a great trust in him. If we don’t, then we will never reach his hand. We will not be able to hold firmly because we don’t believe. His hand is always reaching out. We also need to reach out and take a firm grip of his hand. We must hold to it and not let go. He is our Lord, Savior, Healer and Forgiver! With Jesus in our presence, we will be able to climb up that cliff to the safe arms of the Lord. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
