Bible Verse for January 31st.

Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is
blown and tossed by the wind.
James 1:6
NLT Bible

This verse cautions us to refrain from wavering and compares it to a wave that is blown
to and fro by the wind. Sometimes, as children of God we behave in a similar way. We
trust God, and believe that He will work in our situation, but when things get tough and
there's no change, we begin to doubt and waver in our faith. We wonder if God has
forgotten us, negative thoughts fill our minds, we become impatient, and instead of
keeping our focus on Jesus, we turn to friends for advice and lose sight of the goodness
and faithfulness of Almighty God.

We all waver at times and when we do, we become discouraged and lose our hope and
peace. We make wrong decisions, take things into our own hands and ultimately miss out
on what God has in store for us.

We need to place our confidence and trust in God alone. He is the only one who will see
us through to victory. As we spend time in fellowship with Him, through prayer and
reading the Word, our faith will increase and when trials and difficulties come our way
again, we can face them with an unwavering faith and trust in Jesus, knowing that He will
work things out for our good.

Thank you Lord Jesus for Your faithfulness. Help me to stand firm on Your promises, to
never waver or doubt. I place all my trust and hope in You, Lord Jesus and know that
You will work everything out for me. I love you Jesus. Amen!

Be Blessed!
