Being in life threatening circumstances is usually a rare occasion in our lives.  Having our plans and dreams threatened is so much more  common.  We are promised the desires of our hearts.  Often the ways we think the desires of our hearts are to be met turns out not to be in God’s plan.  we can rest assured that all if His plans will succeed even his plans and purpose in us.  If you are reading this it is certain He is not done with you yet and these obstacles in front of you are no more than learning and strengthening opportunities.  How joyous it is to run a race you know you will win.  take courage you are never alone. Be sensitive to the Spirits promptings to share Chist, give of your abundance weather money or time and pray for those on the frontlines of this pure and Good fight of Faith.  Peace be with you, always.

Faith’s Check Book, Daily Entry

C. H. Spurgeon

Preserved to Work’s End

The Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome. (Acts 23:11)

Are you a witness for the Lord, and are you just now in danger? Then remember that you are immortal till your work is done. If the Lord has more witness for you to bear, you will live to bear it. Who is he that can break the vessel which the Lord intends again to use?

If there is no more work for you to do for your Master, it cannot distress you that He is about to take you home and put you where you will be beyond the reach of adversaries. Your witness-bearing for Jesus is your chief concern, and you cannot be stopped in it till it is finished: therefore, be at peace. Cruel slander, wicked misrepresentation, desertion of friends, betrayal by the most trusted one, and whatever else may come cannot hinder the Lord’s purpose concerning you. The Lord stands by you in the night of your sorrow, and He says, “Thou must yet bear witness for me.” Be calm; be filled with joy in the Lord.

If you do not need this promise just now, you may very soon. Treasure it up. Remember also to pray for missionaries and all persecuted ones, that the Lord would preserve them even to the completion of their lifework.
