How do we react when things don’t seem to be going very well?
We all need the encouragement of God’s Word: ‘Thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumph’ (2 Corinthians 2:14).
When everything seems to be going wrong, we need to be reminded of God’s Word: ‘In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us’ (Romans 8:37).
When we feel so weak, we receive strength ‘from God’.
We are strengthened by ‘the Spirit of the living God’ (2 Corinthians 3:5,3).
We must learn to look beyond our circumstances to our Saviour.
In Him, we see ‘the surpassing glory’.
As we look upon ‘the glory of the Lord’, we are ‘changed into His likeness with ever-increasing glory’ (2 Corinthians 3:18).
In life’s many hard times, may God help us to see what He is doing in our lives and not only what we think is happening to us.
God has called us to salvation - ‘God has shone in our hearts…’ (2 Corinthians 4:6).
He has called us to service - ‘having this ministry by the mercy of God’ (2 Corinthians 4:1).
We receive salvation through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ: ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved’ (Acts 16:31).
We are not to keep our faith to ourselves.
We ‘believe’.
We are to ‘speak’.
This is God’s way of reaching ‘more and more people’ with His ‘grace’ (2 Corinthians 4:13-15).
Our experience of salvation and our empowering for service are both grounded in one great gift from God: ‘God… has given us the Spirit’ (2 Corinthians 5:5).
We fail our Lord often.
Our faith is weak.
Our witness seems so ineffective.
When you feel such a failure, remember the Spirit.
He will not fail you.
He is our ‘guarantee of heavenly and eternal glory’ (2 Corinthians 4:16-5:5).
‘The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all’ (2 Corinthians 13:14).
We have often heard these words spoken.
Here, we are reading them in the Word of God.
How often do we think about these words?
What do they mean?
These are life-changing words.
Through ‘the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ’, we become ‘rich’ - ‘blessed in Christ with every spiritual blessing’ (2 Corinthians 8:9, Ephesians 1:3).
‘In love God has destined us to be His sons through Jesus Christ’ (Ephesians 1:5).
How do these blessings become ours?
How do we become God’s children?
We hear the Word of truth, the Gospel of our salvation.
We believe in Christ.
We are sealed with the promised Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13).
Such great blessing - ‘the Spirit is poured upon us from on high (Isaiah 32:15)!
