Hebrews 10:23 (KJV)

²³ Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

We all have doubted our faith at one point of another. Some of us have thoughts if we are truly saved. Will God truly be this merciful and is the gospel really just received by acceptance alone? Do we really get to heaven that easily? It sounds too good to be true.

God recorded these verses to combat those types of thoughts. God wants us to hold onto the faith without wavering. Since faith represents Jesus, we must believe that Jesus/God was faithful in keeping his promise. We need to remember that we can not and did not do anything for our salvation. God gave Jesus the sole responsibility in obtaining eternal salvation for us. He truly is a faithful and merciful God! Holding fast implies a steadfast commitment, even in the face of challenges, doubts, and tribulations. It’s a call to remain unwavering in our trust in God, who is always faithful to His promises.

The foundation for our unwavering faith is God’s faithfulness.

God’s promises are sure and reliable. Throughout Scripture, we see countless examples of God’s faithfulness to His people. He never fails, and His word is always true.

We can never have assurance in ourselves, we can only find it in God.

Being part of a community of faith provides strength and support. When we gather together, share our struggles, and celebrate our victories, we reinforce our commitment to hold fast to our faith. The encouragement we give and receive helps us to remain steadfast and grow in our walk with God.

God created core of the heart in order to remind us that we are all interconnected in faith. We are all here as a spiritual family. We move together, we grow together, and we all believe with one heart that God is faithful. Amen!
