There are times we can begin doubting who Jesus is because we’re basing our conclusions on our own experiences when things aren’t going our way. We have an unhealthy expectation of what we think Jesus should be doing for us. But as you put your faith in Him, you will experience His goodness and life-giving grace.
When God calls us to do His will, He will also equip and empower us with the means to do so. Through the life of Gideon, we see that we may be unqualified for the job, but as we walk in obedience and trust, He is the One who does the work through us.
Jesus calls us to deny ourselves, take up our cross daily, and follow Him. Though Jesus’ message is one of peace and forgiveness, it will naturally cause division between those who love Him and those who reject Him.
Jesus calls us to be godly servants who follow after His voice. Just as Jesus was persecuted, so His people will be persecuted. It may be a difficult road, but it will be one filled with blessing and seeing the lost saved through the blood of Jesus Christ.
