*Topic:* Can you keep the Faith?
*Text:* Romans 8:38-39 NKJV
[38] For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, [39] nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Glory to God for the privilege to share from His word, I ask that the Holy spirit ministers directly to our hearts in Jesus name amen.
The Topic says *_Can you keep the Faith?_* the text of reference informs us on things that shouldn't or can't separate us from the Lord.
However, some would not even go through half of this before asking God to prove His worth. Life is not a bed of roses as we may rightfully be aware of now.
Everyone is dealt a fair share of their own challenges or situations that can question their faith.
Some of these situations can breed doubt, result in lack of contentment, covetousness, losing heavenly goals and at times some may renounce their faith.
Thinking 🤔 out loud here some have not or are yet to go through tribulations and they have let go of God. Walked away from the Faith in God.
Some have even accepted Jesus will not come back, Some have traded their souls to mention a few.
My question to us (myself included) can you keep that faith.
When the world 🌍 🌎 🌍 turns upside down and it's no longer honky-dory, when things aren't as you were told it would be. When it feels like your years in church, your years of serving God you have nothing will you still hold onto Jesus?
This song by *TKeyz &SteveHills*
I’ve climbed the mountains
Crossed the seas
I’ve found no other love like this
You are the treasure that I have
In You, I’m truly satisfied
Jesus, You’re my everything
You’re the light that shines through me
You are the treasure that I have
In You, I’m truly satisfied
Oluwatosin
The Jesus that I know
Is enough for me
This Jesus that I’ve seen
Ha ha ha ha ha
This Jesus that I’ve heard
Oh oh oh oh oh
This Jesus that I know,
Eh, eh, eh, oh oh, oh, oh, o,h oh, eh
You are more than life to me
You are everything and more
You are the treasure inside of me
In You, I’m truly satisfied
Izurukeme, Izurukeme
The Jesus that I have is enough for me
Izurukeme, Chizurumkeme
The Jesus that I have is enough for me
Oluwatosin
The Jesus that I know
Is enough for me
O tó fún mi, o tó fún mi
(He’s enough for me, He’s enough for me)
Jésù tí mo mọ́, o tó fún mi
(The Jesus that I know is enough for me)
Talks about how Jesus Christ is enough. I want you to look behind the melodious voices and sounds but take a deep insight into the lyrics.
Is Jesus enough for you, will Jesus be enough for you?
Is He just enough now because your prayers are answered. when it comes to denounce your faith so you can have whatever you want, will Jesus be enough?
When the world 🌍 🌎 🌍 against you just because of your relationship with Jesus will He be enough?
When friends and family cut you off and swear never to have anything to do with you will Jesus be enough?
When what you expected tarries or never came will Jesus be enough?
What can separate you, what can separate us from the love of Christ?
We still are able to move around in some part of the world standing firm with confidence that we are Christians when it's no longer safe will Jesus still be enough and relevant to you?
This is not a post to burst your bubble or ego. This is for us to reflect, can my faith stand, can it stand the test of time, now or in the future?
Will Jesus be enough for you and I?
*Let us pray*
Heavenly father thank you for calling me your child, thank you for saving me. Thank you for being my God. Abba, help me, where I am not up to the standard to keep my faith even in the face of trials and tribulations empower me Lord. Lord remove all unworthiness from me, strengthen my faith in you and replace my weakness with your strength and my strength with your strength. At the end Lord let me make heaven. Keep far from me whatever will hinder my heavenly home in Jesus name amen.
