Be determined to follow Jesus

“Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.” John 6:67-6

Be determined to follow Jesus, there are rewards both on earth and in heaven (mark 10:20-30). Be determined to know His person and His principles, and walk in them. Join the assembly of likeminded believers and be committed, have a spiritual mentor to guide you, study the word of God, be involved in preaching the gospel and be led by the Spirit of God. Never give up following Jesus. Don’t change church because of discipline, God disciplines those He loves (Rev 3:19)

Many things are contending with our faith today but we must be determined to follow Jesus to the end. The world hates us because we do not agree with her ways but we depend on the wisdom of God to scale through the hurdles. There are also battles within. 1 John 2:16, “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” We must conquer these battles and follow through with Jesus. In our text today, some disciples left Jesus. Don’t leave Jesus, be determined to continue with Him.

You will not fall by the way side in this noble and profitable faith in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Holy Spirit, keep me through the journey of life as a believer and disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.
