1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Being steadfast to the end is God's desire for all of us. In fact, nothing is worth doing if we won't do it to the end. To remain faithful to the end implies being committed to a course till the time of reward, for every race is due for reward at the finishing line. Brethren, we are to abound in the work of God, not because life is easy with us, people are applauding us or we are gaining recognition from our leaders, but because we love God. We should learn to serve God in love even if He doesn't show up immediately in the midst of our storms.
The Almighty God can never stop rewarding those that are steadfast till the end. Thus, our labour in Christ shall not be in vain. Let us strive to attain the height set before us in Christ and not be discouraged by the activities of the wicked around us. Let us be personal in this fight of faith and not be distracted by unfaithful brethren. Let us focus on the reward and disregard the obstacles on the way. Life is beautiful when we focus on Jesus. Our season to smile is already here.
Let's pray together.
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for upholding us in this perilous times. Please help us to continue with you in steadfastness till the end, in Jesus name. Amen.
