Bible Verse of The Day – 1-25-18

2 Thessalonians 3:13 (NKJV) 13 But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.

Some days it can feel like doing good is impossible.

We have been commanded by God to do right by everyone, to do all things as unto Him, and to love everyone we encounter.

Most times this isn’t a problem. But then there are those times when it feels like doing good is a huge fight.

This might be because we have been fought so hard. It might be because the person we are trying to do right by is mean and wicked in their ways. Or it might just be that we are tired… worn out from trying.

But God has told us not to grow weary in doing good. So how do we do that? How do we continually do good without reaching a point where we simply want to throw our hands up in the air and walk away?

There’s only one way. We need to make sure we’re doing things by the Spirit of God, not by our own natural strength.

Let’s face it; Our flesh is weak. It will only take us just so far before it wants to give up and sit down.

But God’s spirit is strong and mighty. So we need to let God teach us how to live and move by His spirit, not by our flesh or our emotions.

This takes time, but it will happen if we put forth the effort and have the desire for it. We need to draw near to God, and as we do so, He will strengthen our spirit.

Psalm 73:28 (NKJV) 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, That I may declare all Your works.
