He Will Not Lose Hold On Us + This Sunday!
Good morning Immanuel. Catch up on the Daily Pulse and this Sunday at Immanuel!
“I say to the Lord, You are my God; give ear to the voice of my pleas for mercy, O Lord! O Lord, my Lord, the strength of my salvation…” (Psalm 140:6-7b)
What is it that keeps you saved, that keeps you Christian? Maybe you submitted your life to Christ when you were just a little child, like I did. Maybe you were saved dramatically from a life of rebellion. Or maybe you aren’t even sure when conversion happened, you just know you love and follow Jesus. It doesn’t really matter when or how you were saved; the fact remains that it is miraculous that we stay saved!
Here is the best and most reassuring thing: we stay Christian because God is the strength of our salvation. It is not our strength or our goodness that keeps us close to Jesus–we run out of both. It is God’s immeasurable strength that holds us close. He will not lose hold on us. So when we wake up in the morning we can know he has us. And when we lie down to sleep at night we can rest in his grasp.
