Faint Not!

No matter the struggles and/or adversity, know that all things work for the benefit of those who love the Lord and are the called according to His purpose. Those whom He has called, He has justified, those He has justified, He has glorified. Therefore, as things are working out for your good, God knows the place in your life whether it be the fork in the road and/or a stumbling block to your destiny, He knows you. He created you for the perfect praise of His glory, therefore, He made you uniqiue and set you apart for Himself. Jeremiah tells us: "before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart;... As God knew Jeremiah, He knows us and set us apart before we were formed in the womb. He has a specific plan developed for each of our lives, irregardless of how we stray from the path of God, He will be glorified. He chose us in Him before creation to be holy and blameless in His sight, that we might be conformed to the image of His Son. Christ will be exalted above all as the Firstborn of many brethren. As you are conformed into the image of Christ, allow God's will to be done, by allowing yourself to be bent, broken, shaped and molded into the splitting image of Christ, that you too may glorify God, in all that you do. As Christ is exalted in your life, the more you become submissive to His will, the more He can use you as an instrument for His glory that others might come to know Him, by your testimony. Therefore, my brothers and sisters, Isaiah tells us "Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints, nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable, He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. (Is. 40:28-31 NKJV) My brothers and sisters never faint in times of adversity, because you serve a God who is at work in your life, and He has a perfect plan for you. The more you yeild yourselves to Him, the more you succeed in becoming more like Christ, His plan is going to succeed. IN HIS HOLY PRESENCE!!
