"great work"
“There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind that the God who started this great work in you would keep at it and bring it to a flourishing finish on the very day Christ Jesus appears.” Philippians 1:6 The Message
Do you ever doubt what God is doing in your life…?
God began a “great work” in you a long time ago. He didn’t just start something and leave it up to you to finish in your own strength. He’s finishing what he started … He’s completing what he began … He’s perfecting your life into a “flourishing finish”. Everything that God is working into your life comes through the perfecting love of Jesus. There isn’t one thing in your life .. past or present that God has wasted or overlooked. He sees your whole life complete in Christ. Over against your past life and actions is the Finishing One’s never quitting grace … never failing grace .. never giving up on you .. never running out on you … never letting you go … never–never stops loving you .. for one second of your life. He’s not just covering your past .. He’s completing you today … and guaranteeing your forever life. Jesus wants to work in all those places in you that no one sees but Him. It only takes a moment…
“For I am confident of this thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:6 NASB
