"Persistence!"

 

"The Results!"

 

Romans 2:7-9 (Amplified Bible)

To those who by patient persistence in well-doing [springing from piety] seek [unseen but sure] glory and honor and [the eternal blessedness of] immortality, He will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and self-willed and disobedient to the Truth but responsive to wickedness, there will be indignation and wrath. [And] there will be tribulation and anguish and calamity and constraint for every soul of man who [habitually] does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek (Gentile).

Are we truly saddened by the very fact that so many Persist in rebellion and mockery of God and HIS proclaimed response of wrath towards it?

If self-seeking and self-willed were in any way part of TRUTH and Righteousness, then would there have been any need for Christ to have given HIS life for man's Redemption or Reconciliation?

When someone places themselves in a position of Persistent and Continual resistance to God's Will, then tribulation, anquish and calamity are the final results, which have been established and quaranteed as their reward, according to God's WORD!

It is only by conviction of their rebellion by Holy Spirit, and their response of confession, repentence and a total committment to living in Obedience and Humility, does God turn away HIS wrath and restore HIS blessing of fellowship and unity among the Faithful believers who have so Persistantly chased after HIS anointing and blessing upon their lives.

There will be Rejoicing in the Presence of the Lord, when those who for so long have misunderstood and rebelled against the spiritual authority which God has set in place over them, as they bow their face to the HOLY ONE who holds the future of their soul in HIS balance of eternal destruction and torment or a reward of eternal life in HIS courts of Glory and Honor!

 

O'Lord, may I forever seek YOUR face,
and with all humility strive to please only YOU!
YOUR Spirit guides and guards my heart each day,
as I make a persistent stand against the enemy,
who in mockery of YOU, has deceived so many!!
YOU alone have given me Power over the darkness,
that robs so many of YOUR blessing and favor!!!
I will bow down before YOU,
and at YOUR feet exalt YOU with all my praise!

 

O'Lord, YOU are the Light of my days!!!

 

Forever and Amen!!!
