Be confident

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Phillippians 1:6

You are God’s priority. God has started something great in your life…He has stirred something in you.
 The God who draws us to his word and  motivates us to continue in a life of faith is the same God who brought creation into being in the first place.

God, who has always been, creates a ‘beginning’ for the universe. God begins, God commands, God creates, and then like an artist deeply pleased with his work, an artist who says to himself: “That’s exactly what I had in my heart to create”; like an artist, God stands back and says: “IT'S GOOD!”.

So perhaps it’s a little easier to grasp and maybe a little easier to accept…that God, the One who has started a good work in your life…who has saved and helped you in your darkness moments,  and who’s promise is that we will see the coming of our  Salvation.

God will carry on that good work He has started in us to completion until the day of Christ, or the coming of Christ.
 So this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,   so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ,   filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the glory and praise of God.
