Bein' Consistent In Your Faith

Cousin Horace played football in high school. He was really good bein' he caught tha ball, ran tha ball, 'n made touchdowns. Cousin Horace led Tha Frog Holler Jumpers football team ta a championship in 1971. So, bein' consistent is important. Livin' in our changin' world taday, we need consistency in our faith. What does that mean exactly?

Christians need ta be more consistant - unwavering, constant in their relationship with Jesus! Renew every day with Him! Stand firm!

Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Christians aren't consistent enough in their faith.

So, how can ya be consistent, 'Steadfast' in your faith?

1. Live and work for Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15:58  Therefore, my beloved bretheren, be steadfst, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

2. Put God first. Psalms 16:8  I have set the Lord always before me; because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.

3. Trust in God in all things. Psalms 26:1  Judge me, O Lord; for I have walked in my integrity; I have trusted also in the Lord, I shall not slip.

4. Hold on for God is faithful. Hebrews 10:23  Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for He is faithful that promised.

5. Continue to hope and hang on to your faith.  1 Corinthians 16:13  Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.

6. Maintain your relationship through constant prayer. God wants ta know what's on your heart! Pour it out ta Him! 1 Thessalonians 5:17  Pray without ceasing.

You will have consistent victory in your life! Victory over your fears. Victory over depression. Victory over bitterness. Victory over anythin' that gets ya down.

Things Ta Think 'Bout:
1. Are ya consistent, steadfast, in your faith?

2. What are some things ya need ta work on?

Lord, may we be more consistent, steadfast in our relationship with you. In our faith, Lord, give us strength ta be strong, ta stand firm! Givin' you tha glory, in Jesus name, amen.

  1. Hello Janet,

    God was smart, He gave us the choice of believing in Him or not, and He gave us the intelligence to create zillions of distractions to forget about Him. And, most importantly, He made us weak so that temptation is not easy to resist.

  3. Without that hope in God, the troubles in life are worse, but I have friends who have had stressful situations of all kinds for years. It's so much easier to be strong when troubles are few or far between or of just one kind. How do we find strength in multiple troubles that last years and years?

  4. I could never waiver far, cause if it wasn't for the Lord I would not be here this morning. When I see consistent all I can think of is steadfast! By the Grace of God are we saved through our faith...Thank God for his saving Grace. I Praise Him Daily!
