Remain There

One of the most difficult aspects of The Way, is remaining in it!
It goes without saying that we respond to the natural sight of things; not realizing we have been given an assurance to Remain There and nothing will be able to harm us nor move you!
Exodus 14:13 And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever.
Where is it that I must remain?
Acts 17:26 NKJV
26 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,
God already knows the outcome; therefore, you can rest and not worry, this current that you are dealing with, God knows about it!
He cares, so why are you? Christ Jesus gave instructions to “Power It Up” because your eye is the lamp to the body! Paul is instructing the people to remain in faith, remain in hope, remain in trust, knowing that God has promised you that He will do exactly what He said!
In Acts 17, Paul recognized that they are Religious; adhering to their customs but did not have a relationship with Christ Jesus!
Paul encouraged them to change their thinking so that they could realize how to remain in The Way even in the midst of persecution!
We all are aware of the scripture which tells us God’s Promises are “Yes and Amen” but yet we are so easily moved by circumstances and trials!
The problem is this; we look pass the promise. . . Every Word that came out of The Mouth of God is Truth! It cannot fall, nor fail - This, we must know and embed in our thought life, because trouble will come but where trouble abounds, Grace much more abounds. . .
We must understand so that we may be able to Stand Under when we cannot see The Way!
Stand under the pressure
Stand under the ridicule
Stand under the doubt
Stand under when it seems as if we won’t make it!
Just because you face difficulties or opposition, doe snot mean for you to move out of your position!
Remain There!
Paul was cast out of several regions prior to coming into Corinth; the Religious Leaders wanted so bad to quite him, but yet Paul remained focused on purpose and continued on!

Now lthe Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent;

10 mfor I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.”

11 And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

There will be times you will have to remain in difficult circumstances, but remember, no matter how much it may seem insurmountable, God is with you along with His Promises!
Psalm 16:10-11 (NKJV) 10  For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption. 11  You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
