5 Assurances

Do you or someone you know feel overwhelmed by everything going on in the world? As Christ-followers we have the hope and confidence in Him to guide us through this maze, but often it's scary and confusing anyway. Imagine what someone who doesn't know Christ must feel. (Although I know plenty of people who just turn a blind eye to the whole thing.) During good times and bad, we have the assurance of Christ to see us through. 
     I happened upon the "5 assurances" last night as I was writing something else. More correctly, God led me to find them. They are:
Assurance of Salvation
Assurance of Answered Prayer
Assurance of Victory
Assurance of Forgiveness
Assurance of Guidance
We'll cover each of them this week. 

Know this:
The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
Romans 8:16 ESV

And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 
And because lawlessness will be increased, 
the love of many will grow cold. 
But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
Matthew 24:11-13 ESV

*********
Please join me this week in praying for the unsaved that they may come to know the hope and assurance of a loving and merciful Father, of Christ Jesus who bore our sins on the cross that we may have eternal life. Pray for those who are fearful and anxious, that they may find peace and joy in Jesus. Pray for the lost that the Good Shepherd will call them to Him. And finally, pray for the opportunity, and then the words and encouragement to share our testimonies, our assurances as followers of Christ Jesus.
