Choosing to follow Jesus Christ is a lifelong and eternal commitment. Once you belong to Him, there is no turning back. Believers face three constant enemies: the sinful nature, the temptations of the world, and the attacks of the devil. These challenges can leave some feeling worn down and ready to give up.

But giving up only worsens the struggle. Instead, Christians are called to stand firmly on the truth of God’s Word and hold on to their identity as His children. Through Christ’s presence within, they can resist despair and rely on God’s strength.

God’s care, love, and promises surround every believer. He has already provided the tools needed to endure spiritual battles. By trusting Him and holding their ground, Christians can walk forward with confidence, knowing they are never alone.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.

Some people believe that becoming a Christian will make life easier, but Scripture shows that is not always the case. There will be times when challenges and hardship arise, even for those who follow Christ. These difficulties are not meaningless; they are part of God’s plan to shape believers to be more like Jesus.

Christians may face mistreatment or opposition, but these struggles are part of the spiritual battle that comes with faith. Rather than expecting an easy path, believers are called to stay strong, stand firm, and endure when trials come.

Followers of Christ can face life’s challenges with courage and confidence, knowing that victory is certain because of their identity in Him.

For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters;
