Psalm 94:17-19 NIV
Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death. When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
Romans 11:1-2 NKJV
I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew.
Hebrews 13:5 NKJV
Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

God Will Not Forsake Us (Part 1)
Isaiah 62:11-12 NKJV
Indeed the LORD has proclaimed
To the end of the world:
“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Surely your salvation is coming;
Behold, His reward is with Him,
And His work before Him.’”
And they shall call them The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the LORD;
And you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
Psalm 94:14 NIV
For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.
Psalm 94:17-19 NIV
Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death. When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.

Engage The World In Faith
If we claim to have Christ within us and represent Him then we must engage the world. The world must not be allowed to engage us so as to stain our relationship to our Heavenly Father. We must truly believe that He is greater in us than he that is in the world. So, we need to step out, project ourselves onto and from the stage of life: be salt and light to a dying world. It begins with each one of us personally before it can occur corporately. It is a very personal call of our faith. We must touch others in love and allow the opportunity for them to experience the Savior. – JSS
1 John 5:4-5 NKJV
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
We need to be transformed from thermometers to thermostats. The thermometer merely registers the temperature of its surroundings; the thermostat changes the temperature.
