The Believer's Daily Remembrancer
Cast not away therefore your confidence. - Hebrews 10:35
Every believer is confident that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the sent of God : that He is the only Saviour, and the eternal God.
He is confident that heaven is promised to all true believers, and is certain to all holy disciples. He gives credit to God’s word, which reveals the same, is fully satisfied of its truth, and finds courage and boldness to profess the same.
His confidence being produced by the Holy Spirit, and grounded on the divine word, will lead him to commit his all to the divine blessing; to surrender all to the divine will; to part with all in Christ’s quarrel: and to rest on the word and veracity of the Lord Jesus.
His confidence will often be assailed and sharply tried; but it must be maintained, for we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end. It has great recompense of reward, in the present life a hundred-fold for all it parts with for Christ; and in the world to come life everlasting.
Beloved, let us hold fast our confidence and rejoicing of hope firm unto the end.
Protect me in the dangerous hour,
And from the wily tempter’s power,
Oh, set my spirit free!
And if temptation should assail,
May mighty grace o’er all prevail
And lead my heart to Thee.
