John 10:28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

It is through God’s mercy and grace that we get eternal life. It is not anything we can do but the free gift from Jesus Christ our Saviour!

The eternal life that He gives to us is not going to stop. Once it has been given it is ours to keep, just as a non-perishable gift is.

It is not like a money bag when there are pick-pockets around. This gift is given to us and nobody is going to take it away from us. It is ours to keep.

Isaiah 43:11 I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no saviour.

The Lord declared to us through the prophet Isaiah that we are His witnesses; we are here to tell others about Him because we know Him and we love Him.

His love for us is far greater, but our love for Him must be put on show for others to see and desire for themselves.

We should not fret about this because He was, is and forever will be the one and only true God for us.

It is Christ alone who has died for us and Christ alone who is our Saviour. The is no other!

Hosea 4:16 The Israelites are stubborn, like a stubborn heifer. How then can the Lord pasture them like lambs in a meadow?

We can be very stubborn when we want our own ways. We get upset when people say we are wrong and sometimes reject what they say without thinking things through.

Just as Israel went through many times of being stubborn, we too will be stubborn in our own ways.

Let us never forget that God is trying to teach us the righteous path we should be taking. Let us listen for His instruction and obey it, even if we want to do our own thing!

God is good and wants to feed us properly, but we need to listen!
