“ Faint Not”

“ FAINT NOT”

Matt.15: 32Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

(1) In prayer

Luke 18: 1And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

Every Christian needs to pray

So many times we come up short because we don’t pray

Jesus says men ought to pray

To many times we faint and don’t pray

(2) In confidence

2nd Cor.4: 1Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;

God gives us mercy

We are show mercy in our ministry for the Lord

Don’t ever give up

Keep fighting

(3) In hope

2nd Cor.4: 16For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

Hope keeps on going

Our body may perish but we live on

We have to renew ourselves each day

We faint not but keep the faith

(4) In work

Gal. 6: 9And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

We are weary at times

We are well doing because God supplies all our needs.

We will reap what we sow

Don’t ever quit keep on keeping on

(5) In trusting

Eph.3: 13Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

Trust God in every thing

Trials

Test

Temptation

Suffering

(6) In well doing

2nd Thess.3: 13But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

Don’t weep and howl just believe and pray

Quit gripping

Stop whining

Start looking at what more you can do

(7) Under chastening

Heb.12: 7If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

Learn to suffer a little

He that endures will prosper

We have to be corrected for our wrong

Boy I am glad God whips us for our wrongs

No correction no saved
