very nice podcast, well put together, great vids- we don't have snow so it sure looks cold!
It is so important to endure to the end, and to do so we need to remember what God has done for us in the past, and what he has done for all his faithful people over the previous six thousand years.
Israel lacked faith to go into the promised land because they did not remember how he had delivered them from Egypt. Yet not all forgot. Joshua and Caleb did go in for they were the spies that gave a good report. Yet they had to endure 38 more years wandering in the wilderness because of rest of Israel's lack of faith!
Their faith, which was strong, was certainly tested during this 38 years, and they grew in faith and continued to trust him.
We who are called and chosen by God to understand his truth, and respond with faith, are in the same situation. We have to endure to the end and God will show us into the promised land as well.
Hi, Martin. Thank you so much for listening! I like your point about endurance. We must be mindful of all he has done for us; otherwise, we could take the Lord for granted and sink into entitlement, especially when things aren't going the way we think they should. Admittedly, I have found myself in the desert like the Israelites, impatiently wondering how God would get me out of trouble I caused myself😊! When you are in desert situations, what helps you get through? You mention, "We who are called and chosen by God to understand his truth, and respond with faith, are in the same situation . . ." Amen, well-said! Thanks, again!
Thank you for another article of the encouraging truths of our Heavenly father to refresh and restore us in Him.
Thank you so much for reading. I appreciate your support!
