TOPIC: Hang Tough
Scripture: And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.
Galatians 6:9 (AMPC)
Joyce Meyer Devotional 25th January 2021 Message: In Galatians 6:9, we read about ālosing heartā and āfainting,ā which refers to giving up in the mind. The Holy Spirit tells us not to give up in our mind, because if we hold on, we will eventually reap good things.
Think about Jesus. Immediately after being baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit, He was led into the wilderness to be tested and tried by the devil. He did not complain and become discouraged and depressed. He did not think or speak negatively. He did not become confused trying to figure out why this had to happen. He went through each test victoriously (see Luke 4: 1ā 13).
Can you imagine Jesus traveling around the country, talking with His disciples about how hard everything was? Can you picture Him discussing how difficult the Cross was going to be . . . or how He dreaded the things ahead . . . or how frustrating it was to have no roof over His head, no bed to sleep in at night?
Jesus drew strength from His heavenly Father and came out in victory. We have His Spirit dwelling in us and the strength available to make it through whatever we are facing. We can handle our situations the same way Jesus didāby being mentally prepared through āvictory thinkingā rather than āgive-up thinking.ā
Prayer Starter: Father, thank You for Your Word. Help me to walk in victory thinkingā¦and help me to never give up, even in my mind. In Jesusā name, amen.
