"A steadfast person is one who has made choice after choice to just ... keep ... doing ... the ... right things. Over and over do what is right. Do what feeds the right things in your life. Do what the Word of God tells you to do. Do what strengthens your relationship with Jesus. And then, do it again, no matter the opposition you experience." day 5 |
"Steadfast, at the root of the word, (we see 'stead' ,or 'stede' "place" + fast "firmly fixed") meaning to be loyal. Committed. Devoted.Solid. Constant"Hannah Brencher, "How to be steadfast"{I added the part in parentheses}
For me, before I get into this week's study of Daniel, and being steadfast, I'd like to give thanks to God because in my humble opinion, Jesus is the Rockand the best example of being steadyor being steadfastis inJesus
Daniel knew God as a rock and the Rock(2 Samuel 22:2-3)(Deuteronomy 32:3-4)(Psalms 24:8; 65:6)(Psalms 18:31)(Daniel 2:44-45)
God/ Jesusis theRock of our Salvation
and
that's a pretty solid foundation
Trustingin thePromises of Godproduces confidence inGod's power, protection, & provision
Our lives are anchored to aSolid, Unshakeablefoundation inJesus ChristOur RockThe Rock of all ages
Our salvation, likewise, cannot be taken or shakenbecause it's secure in Jesus Christ, who died once & for all for our sons & rosevictoriously
Now that'sResurrection Power!
