“That in everything ye are enriched by him in
all utterance…who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless
in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Cor 1:5; 8
By
these two truths the greatness and worth of man consists, the indwelling of the
Holy Spirit to impart in us the character of Christ, and the joy of recognizing
His presence that encourages us to share it with others. One is our salvation: the other is our
assurance. A soul that longs for assurance needs to look no further than the
word of God, there is no greater assurance. Many look at the assurance of sense
to be their comfort, yet the assurance of faith is the surest of assurance; for
what man holds in himself he can lose the benefit and comfort of; but what man
has in bond upon the promise of God, is the greatest of security and assurance. When you are unable to find the joy in the
assurance of your faith, then chose to live by faith in adherence; the latter
will bring back your joy of assurance. With the cost of the Cross, God has
invested too much for you to be less than what He desires for you; don’t seek assurance
by looking elsewhere for insurance.
The
benefit of assurance is the privilege of knowing you are saved.
