Topic: You Will Never Be Put To Shame!
Text: Romans 10: 11- 12
11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame. 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile–the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on Him. Amen
The demands of the faith can sometimes be a great challenge to all believers; especially those who may be going through one difficult situation or another. These challenges may, with time, take a very complicated twist than we expected; challenging our faith in Christ for any kind of redemption.
It is here that some of us give up the faith and chase after anyone or everyone who promises us some kind of relief or solution. We are often tempted to do the above just to save ourselves the “embarrassment” of holding on to God’s Word and being disgraced in the end because things didn’t happen the way and time we thought they would.
But beloved, God loves us so dearly; and His Word is so true that those who trust in Him are never put to shame. Yes, the vision may tarry, your patience to wait may also be tested, friends may look down on you, your past may stare glaringly at you; producing the greatest guilt and lack of confidence in the presence of God. However, none of those can ever render the Word of God inactive.
His Word is ‘yea and Amen’ (2 Corinthians 1: 20). It is alive and active; sharper than any double-edged sword (Hebrews 4: 12). This Word, once out, does not return to God empty, but accomplishes whatever God desires, and achieves the purpose for which He sent it (Isaiah 55: 11).
Therefore, don’t let circumstances push you away from God’s eternal Word. He doesn’t discriminate nor show partiality. He is the Lord of all, and richly blesses all who call on Him. He is the DEPENDABLE ONE WHO NEVER PUTS TO SHAME.
Begin to pray now that your faith does not fail. Ask the Lord to help you trust in His Word, even when the odds are against you. As for your fears that trusting God’s Word will make you look “foolish or ashamed” before men if it doesn’t come to pass the way you thought it would, forget it!
God will never put you to shame if you trust His Word and call upon Him in prayer. Your own testimony everyday shall be greater than any of the struggles you have ever been through. For He has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Hebrews 13:5) Kindly click, watch and be blessed: https://youtu.be/ZwoyRtFO-EQ
