All in Help
How is it that we are saved? How is it that the sin which rules our flesh is ever overcome? When I realized that without Jesus Christ in my life each and every day, I would naturally revert back to the creature I once was, my faith began to change at once within me. I came to understand that temptation and sin did not go away when I first believed, but instead must be held at bay, and I am allowed a moment by moment victory over it through Jesus.
Has God asked you to do something hard? Did you answer “Yes Father”, and now you find yourself at that place where He has called? You are close now, and are facing the reality, and terror of it. This is the moment of fear, and this is the time when we must pray as though we were in Gethsemane. When God reveals the fullness of what He has asked of us, and suddenly we find that the nobleness of saying “Yeah” has worn off, we must ultimately face our fear and doubt. It is in this moment that we realize we cannot face this alone, but that even so, it must be done.
