HOLD ON FIRMLY

“Be very careful to obey all the commands and instructions that Moses gave to you. Love the Lord your God, walk in His ways, obey His commands, hold firmly to Him, and serve Him with all your heart and with all of your soul.” Joshua 22:5

What Joshua told the eastern tribes still holds true today. We will surely succeed if we (1) love God; (2) walk in His ways; (3) keep His commandments; (4) hold fast to Him; and (5) serve Him wholeheartedly.

In order for us to complete these tasks we must be able to totally understand the ways of our God. We must be able to better understand the way He works and just how He thinks. Jesus is our shining star. If we look at how Jesus lived His life in this world we can see the true nature of our God in heaven. We can see that He loves us unconditionally and that if we hold up our end of the bargain, He will never leave us. When Jesus left this world, He sent us the Holy Spirit to live within those who believe and accept Him. He was sent to be God’s continued presence here on earth, fulfilling promises to teach, remind us of Jesus’ words, and empower believers. The Holy Spirit is our guide to an overcoming life. However, we must listen closely and be a doer of His commands. We must read the Bible and do so prayerfully. We must meditate upon it and never let it leave our presence. Our God in heaven is a loving and everlasting God. He never tires and never sleeps. He is available 24/7. Talk with Him and become a part of His family. Jesus is Lord! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
