STRONG CONVICTION

Daniel 3:17- 18 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve can save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn’t, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.”

Conviction does not end when the help of God comes through only. The strength of your conviction is tested even in times when you are not experiencing the help of God and yet believe Him anyway. Times of adversity are the test of your convictions. Proverbs 24:10 If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small. When God comes through for you or not you must not change your stance.

The reason Jesus said the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than the greatest man born of a woman - John the Baptist is that John the Baptist moved into doubt when Jesus Christ did not show up for him in the prison. Matthew 11:2-6 And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples and said to Him, “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?”

Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see. And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.” John the Baptist was like I prepared the way for you, baptized you, introduced you to the world; apart from that, we are family. Jesus at least visit me in prison and do something about my situation.

Jesus never visited John the Baptist till he was beheaded; he did not even attend his burial service; when he heard about John's death, he moved to another town. Yet John the Baptist died believing just like the Apostles of God. Beloved to have strong convictions is ready to die for what you believe. Jesus died to save you, but must keep believing till death.

Prayer: Holy Spirit give me boldness to hold on to my convictions even in the face of adversity. Give me Grace to believe still death in Jesus' name. Amen!
