“God, No One Compare To You, You Complete Me”

Philippians 1:6

Compare is defined as to examine in order to note similarities and differences: Complete is defined as 

lacking nothing; whole; entire; full. 

Our perseverance is really God’s preservation. God is responsible for our “ability” to persevere in the faith. We run, but He empowers. We fight, but He wins the battle. We serve but God provides the results. Whatever God starts in you, He will complete. You will make every effort (perseverance), but God is the One who is the actual reason for success (preservation). We must make every effort to serve God and be faithful realizing that we cannot do it, but God will. We can persevere when we understand that we cannot fail because of God’s preservation. God can NOT be guilty of starting something and not seeing it through to a perfect finish, salvation being the last thing He could leave undone for someone who is truly saved. This is the irrefutable principle that gives the Christian security knowing that any person in whom God has begun the authentic work of salvation in response to the Believer’s obedience and faith in the Good News of Jesus Christ, can be assured beyond doubt that God will finish that work in them.

I come by this late evening to say I thank God for completing us and there is no comparison of what He can do in and through us. In James 1:22 it says; “In But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” Be bless and I love you!!! JE
