On October 12th I posted how I believe that God had answered my question of why no-one had made a profession of Christ's saving and keeping power in their lives.
God, as you can read on the post, gave me something to think about as regards the fact that His ways and timings are not always what we want in our haste.
I thank God as the seed was sown that one young man the following week trusted the Lord Jesus Christ as His own and personal Saviour.
What a joy it is to know that God is still in the unchanging position of plucking brands out of the fire.
The old devil seeks to keep the Gospel hid:
2 Corinthians 4:3-4
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: (4) In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Satan continues to try and keep the gospel away from those who are at one with their sinful ways.
Why?
Because he knows that it will release them them from the curse of sin and that they will have peace with God.
Praise God for the Gospel.
