Surround Yourself

Calvin Kochi

Scripture

38And, “But my righteous one will live by faith.And I take no pleasurein the one who shrinks back”

39But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.Hebrews 10:38-39

Observation

The Lord is looking for those who will remain faithful and not to go back to you former or old ways of living. There are those that because of the influences and struggles in their life go back to their old way of living. We are reminded surround ourselves those who are holding on to their faith and salvation.

Application

Who we surround ourselves with is so important. 24And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. We all need those who will spur us on and encourage us to keep up the fight of faith and spur us on to the work that the Lord has called is to do. We need those that will preserve with us to continue to do the will of God. As we see the days at are approaching the enemy would like nothing better that to see us fall back to our old ways of living. That is why finding those that can bring correction and encouragement in my life is so important.

Prayer

Thank you for surrounding me with Godly men of who are willing to challenge and encourage me to keep up the fight of faith. Give me the strength to persevere and not shrink back.
