Hold on

Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you,25 except to hold on to what you have until I come.’~Revelation 2:24-25

Verse 25 tells us to hold on to what we have until He comes.  Hold on to your faith.  Hold on to your hope and belief in the One who saves.  Hold on to God with everything you have.  This verse reminds me of an old song that says “hold on and pray on just a little while longer and everything will be alright.”

The world would have us compromise the truth for a lie.  But we must hold on to the truth of God.  We must not give in, but stand up and apart with integrity.  It’s not always easy, but He has told us to hold on to what we have.  We have Jesus and He is the difference.

When I think about this verse I sometimes think I don’t have much, but my little faith means a whole lot to God and He stretches it to go a long way.  So hold on.  Don’t loose hope.  God is with You and He is coming back.   It won’t always be this way.  A  better day is coming so i will keep holding on and cling to my faith.

Father, I don’t have much but I know You to be a multiplier.  So help me to hold on until your return.  Let me run this race until the end.  In Jesus name.  Amen
