Leading The Way - Week of January 5Monday, January 05, 2009
Week of Jan. 5
Finding the Strength to Stay Faithful Ephesians 1:4 clearly states, “He chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” What an amazing realization we gain when we accept Christ’s calling!
Not only are we chosen by God, but also we are called “faithful.” However, being called faithful does not mean that we are. We are faithful when we spend time praying and reading God’s Word. We are faithful when we share our faith with others, and when we gather with other believers to worship Him.
We are faithful when our behavior reflects Christ. We are faithful when we forgive others for the hurts they have caused us, just as Christ has forgiven us. We are faithful when we give back a portion to the Lord of what He has given us. Are you faithful—in your business, relationships, morals, and finances?
Charles Spurgeon writes, “Seek, O believer, that every good thing you have may be an abiding thing. May your character not be a writing upon the sand, but an inscription upon the rock! May your faith be no ‘baseless fabric of a vision,’ but may it be built of material able to endure that awful fire which shall consume the wood, hay, and stubble of the hypocrite.
“May you be rooted and grounded in love. May your convictions be deep, your love real, your desire earnest. May your whole life be so firm and strong, that all the blasts of hell and the storms of earth shall never be able to remove you.”
You may feel insufficient in being called the chosen and faithful of God. Only the Lord can give you the strength and ability to remain faithful.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer (Romans 12:12).

Leading The Way Through Daniel
Today, we live in a culture that is increasingly hostile to biblical values. It takes great courage and faith to live as a follower of Christ in a world characterized by moral depravity, injustice, idolatry, and more…but it is possible!
Dr. Michael Youssef invites you to take a walk through the book of Daniel with him. In Leading The Way Through Daniel, the first volume of the Leading The Way Through the Bible commentary series, you will discover how a man of God lived a godly life in a godless culture.
Like Daniel, we are living by faith in a faithless culture. Leading The Way Through Daniel equips you to stand for God’s truth despite great opposition. This timely devotional book is ideal for personal or group use.
