Daily Devotion:

"Consistent Faith"

2 Corinthians 4:8-9

New International Version

8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.

There is something trulyremarkable about a person whose faith is consistent. The Bible says there willbe troubles, we will be perplexed, and even knocked down. But God is alwayswith us, protecting us from being crushed, driven to despair, and destroyed. Wecan stay strong in the face of trials because of the promise that God willnever abandon us. With God on our side, we can withstand and persevere in allcircumstances, and we will grow in faith, trust, and endurance. We are calledto be brave when we’re discouraged and display a consistent faith because ourGod is consistently faithful.
