~PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU HAVE QUIT, OR YOU ARE THINKING OF QUITTING!!~FROM DAVE HART~ Don’t Quit! It is very sad to see people who began the walk with God, but then stop. Some walk in the paths of righteousness for many years, then for some reason they quit. Others may be on the verge of quitting. Usually this is seen in a slow decline in attendance and participation in the work of the church until the person is seen no more. Those who quit have given up the home in heaven and the blessing of salvation. Don’t quit! The Lord gives hope to the wicked man who turns from his wickedness. He says he will not remember that wickedness and will reward the man who turns to righteousness. But at the same time, the Lord warns the righteous person that if they turn from their righteousness and do that which is wicked, then that man will answer for his wickedness (see Ezekiel 18, 33). All through our lives we have the opportunity to change. Do not turn from God to live wickedly! The last state will become worse than the first (2 Peter 2:20-22). Remember that Satan is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). You can withstand him in your faith (1 Peter 5:9), but it takes effort. He will use every tool in his arsenal to cause you to quit. Be diligent to know what God says, and follow it. If a situation is before you and you are not certain it is right - stop! Look carefully and do what you know is pleasing to God. By doing this you are actively resisting the devil. When you resist him, he will flee from you (James 4:7). Walk with God. Live a life of righteousness. Do Not Quit!
