Thursday 15 June - Standing Up for Christ in Our Confusing Culture

Reading: Matthew 10:24-39.

In order to stand up for Christ, we need to ensure we are not being misled by another worldview. How we view the world influences how we see everything. There are many non-Christian worldviews that compete for our attention each day.

Having a strong Christian worldview - based on the Bible - allows us to stand as courageous believers in a sea of changing values. We can stand up for the truth of God’s Word.

As we understand more of God’s Word, we must do all we can to stand for Christ. We may be afraid of what will happen if we do that, but the answer isn’t to give into that fear. The answer is to move forward into our fear. We trust God and face the fear.

As we take each step of faith, God will show us the way forwards, one step at a time.

God is committed to you. He wants you to succeed in the purpose he has for your life. He loves you and he is for you. All you need do is focus on him, trust his Word, and stand your ground.
