The journey of faith is a marathon, not a sprint. There will be moments of extreme fatigue, disappointment, and temptation to just quit.
There’d be times the enemy whispers, “It’s not worth it,” or “Nothing is changing, You are finished,, It’s all over, You are not going to make it, get better, or prosper.” But giving up is never the answer.
The Bible is filled with stories of people who wanted to quit but didn’t, and they received the promise. Galatians 6:9 gives us this vital command: “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Your harvest is coming, but you must stay in the race and in faith to receive it.
Beloved, I want you to think of your life as a story God is writing. If you give up in the middle of a difficult chapter, you will never get to see the redemption, the victory, and the purpose He had planned.
Your current struggle is building in you a strength, a character, and a testimony that will later encourage others. 2 Corinthians 4:17 reminds us, “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” What you are going through is temporary, but the glory it produces is eternal.
Finally, remember who you are representing. When you stand firm in faith despite the pressure to give in, you are showing the world that Jesus is worth more than any comfort or temporary relief.
You are proving that His grace is sufficient for you (2 Corinthians 12:9). Your perseverance is a powerful testimony to both men and angels. So, take one more step. Pray one more prayer. Hold on for one more day.
