Don’t Give Up

It is often just before the breakthrough that we feel like quitting. The night always seems darkest before the dawn, but it is in that very moment that faith must rise. Scripture reminds us, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9 NIV). The promise of a breakthrough is not in our striving, but in our perseverance.

Faith is not just about believing for a miracle; it is about holding on when nothing changes. The walls of Jericho did not fall on day one. The victory came after persistent obedience. Likewise, our spiritual breakthroughs come through daily decisions to keep walking when we would rather sit down and give up.

Your answer may be one prayer away. Don’t let weariness rob you of the reward God has promised. Stay the course.

Quote
