YOUR STANDING UP IS FOR A FAR MORE GREATER PURPOSE

Dan 3:16-18..."Shadrach, Meshac and Abednego answered and said to the king, 'O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand O king. But if not, let it be known to you O king that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the golden image which you have set up'".

There is someone out there that need encouragement today. Your standing up and standing alone without compromising is not in vain. I bless God for your life for taking the decision, and for making a choice like the three hebrew men, Shadrach, Meshac and Abednego to stand up for the King of kings.

I want you to know, that, it is by grace that you are able to stand, and it might be for a time like this. Believe me, a lot of people are weak, hurting and pauperised. These are the people you are standing up for God for. You are standing up for the downtrodden, widows, new converts, the poor, orphans etc. Your standing up is given them strength. They are drawing strength from the choice you made to stand and be counted. You have become a yardstick for them to measure their own work and walk in faith.

You can't afford to let them down, you can't take your hand away from the plough now. When they look up and see you still standing, they also draw grace, strength and encouragement to crawl out and climb out of the misery the devil have hitherto kept them. Now, they have the Confidence that if you can stand, unwavered, they too can stand.

Are you the one am writing to today? I congratulate you because you are making history. Souls are been touched because of the grace of God upon your life to stand and be counted.

Pray it aloud; Lord, I refuse to back down, I stand up for the weak and I draw grace to still stand for God!

Shalom!
