Christ as their personal Saviour, they can merely walk
along in this life and the Lord will do everything else
and if things don't go right, they think God is unhappy
with them or has forgotten them. This is totally opposite
of Biblical truth. It is our responsibility to be on guard
so we can keep victory against the enemy. It is our
responsibility to seek God through prayer, study of the
Word, fellowship with other Christians, and live what
we know to be right in His eyes so that we can grow
in faith and mature in our spirit.
Heavenly Father, forgive us for being lazy Christians
and expecting You to do what You have told us we
are to do ourselves. Help us Lord to do our part so
that we will stand strong and grow in your grace.
In Jesus' name.
Read 2 Peter 3:17,18
"Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this,
be on your guard so that you may not be carried away
by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure
position. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both
now and forever! Amen." (NIV)
"Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things
before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error
of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. But grow
in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever.
Amen." (KJV)
