John 6:28-29, “Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.”

To many, we are living in confusing times.

Contrary to popular opinion, we are living in the last days as the Bible described. The love many has turned cold. There has been a falling away even in the body of Christ. COVID-19 opened a door that made it normal to stay away from church attendance. But even now, when restrictions have been lifted, many still choose not to attend.

But God has not changed. Hebrews 13:8, Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever. He still requires his people to gather together to Worship and serve him (Hebrews 10:25). For it is in being together that we gain strength and experience, that allows us to go out into the world and work the work of God.

We are bombarded with voices and opinions of people that are contrary to the word of God. So much so that these influences will have you turn from the truth that is God’s word, and his will.

If a person is not firmly grounded in the word of God (for this is our solid foundation ), that persons can be fooled into going against God’s word. Psalms 119:11, “for they words have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against thee.”

We must do what the word says. Read the word, meditate on the word day and night – hide the word in your heart. By doing this, if any voice rises up and speaks contrary to that word, you recognize it immediately.

It is a simple thing really- believe on him who God has sent. Take what the Bible says above all – above every voice. By doing this simple action, we protect ourselves. We keep ourselves from falling into sin. We keep ourselves from the seducing voices that are in the world. Whose intent is to turn you away from truth and have you believe a lie.

So keep things simple- believe what God said in his word, and do it.

God has always had a standard of holiness. Because God does not change, his holy standard does not change either. Just because the year is 2021, does not mean the way we approach life or how we deal with any situation should change. Our methods my have evolved with the times, but even in this our actions should always come from an attitude of love and holiness. Hebrews 12:14, “follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”

If you have questions and need clarification or a deeper understanding – Ask God! He will reveal his word unto you. But do it in faith and from a sincere heart. God is faithful, he will reveal it to you. Talk to your Pastor or Minister – Attending Bible study and Sunday School are perfect settings to ask questions. Many times God will use them to provide the answer you need. Regardless, when your answer comes, you will know it.

Keep fighting the good fight of faith.

Have a blessed day!
