GRACE FOR MOMENTS OF CONTRADICTION

MATTHEW 11:1-4

And it came to pass when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities. Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:

In our text above, John the Baptist was going through a moment of contradiction. He couldn’t understand why despite all He was going through, it seemed that Jesus was not doing anything about it. He thought of this so much that it made him start doubting if Jesus was truly the Saviour. This was the same John the Baptist who a while ago, had supernaturally recognized Jesus and boldly said “Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,” (John 1:29). He was a tough man with a very successful ministry. He prepared the way for the arrival and introduction of Jesus, (Luke 3:1-22).

Beloved, there will be times when situations of life and the way things may be going in the country will seem like a moment of contradiction, but the grace of God is upon you today. You will not lose your faith and focus on Jesus. You will be tempted to doubt in the dark, what you were told in the light. After God had called Abraham in Genesis 12, and given him His promises, in Genesis 15, Abraham was worried he had no child and he feared that one of his servants would be his heir. God reassured Abraham and Abraham’s faith was strengthened. Like Abraham, you will not stagger at the promises of God. You will remain strong in faith, giving glory to God. Against hope, you will believe in hope. You will be fully persuaded of God’s promises (Rom. 4:17-21).

PRAYER:
FATHER, PLEASE HELP TO NEVER ALLOW MY MOMENTS OF CONTRADICTIONS TO DISCOURAGE MY FAITH. HELP ME TO REMAIN STRONG IN FAITH.
