HANGING TOUGH!
Isa 40:29-31
29 He
giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth
strength.
30 Even
the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31 But
they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up
with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk,
and not faint.
Hanging
tough! It’s a modern term with a very old history. In every
age there have been those who have endured great trials and strength-sapping
struggles. The temptation is to yield to the pressure and walk away with a
participant’s trophy but those who hang tough sometimes win!
We win
when we know who we are! As a blood-bought child of God I am
already on the winning side. The final chapter is not yet finished although it
may be being written now. At the end of the struggle I shall stand in robes
washed white and embrace my Savior on streets of gold!
We win
when we know our enemy! He is formidable but his defeat has
already been recorded. His destiny is as sure as if it had already happened.
Soon Jesus shall crush all his enemies under his feet (1 Cor. 15:25).
We win
when we don’t quit! Victory comes to those who stubbornly
persevere. The hammer blows of great effort may require one final blow so just
keep hammering.
Gal 6:9
9 And
let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint
not.
Dear
Lord, let me hang tough through struggle and trial. AMEN
