Don't ever give up

Episode 387

Angus Buchan

Reading from Genesis 32:24 - 28 Angus encourages us that even if it seems like there is no end to a problem or if you have been waiting for an answer from the Lord, don’t give up because you don’t know how close you are to the victory. So if you feel like giving up remember what happened to Jacob who wouldn’t give up until he received the blessing, and keep going.

The way home

Isaiah 42:6–7, Isaiah 49:6, Acts 13:47

People are lost, they don't know what to do or where to go. You and I have a responsibility to tell the world that Jesus is the only way. Isaiah 42:6-7. People everywhere on this earth are sitting in spiritual darkness and prison. Isaiah 49:6. Acts 13:47. God has given us an order, to show people the way home. Jesus is the Light of the world.

John 1:1. 1 John 5:7. Jesus Christ is the Word of God. Zephaniah 3:10. Acts 8:27.

Personal testimony

Hebrews 13:8. There is nothing more powerful than a personal testimony. Acts 6:10, 15. Steven became the first martyr as he testified about the power of God. People are not interested in what we have to say, they are interested in what He, Jesus Christ, the Word of God has to say. Colossians 1:27. When they looked at Stephen they they thought that they were looking at an angel, because they could see Christ in him. When Jesus speaks, we need to listen up.
