Good Monday Morning.  Here’s Today’s Nugget to chew on:

“Fully Persuaded”

2 Timothy 1:11-12 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

11 For [the proclaiming of] this [Gospel] I was appointed a herald (preacher) and an apostle (special messenger) and a teacher of the Gentiles.

12 And this is why I am suffering as I do. Still I am not ashamed, for I know (perceive, have knowledge of, and am acquainted with) Him Whom I have believed (adhered to and trusted in and relied on), and I am [positively] persuaded that He is able to guard and keep that which has been entrusted to me and which I have committed [to Him] until that day.

Further Thought: The Apostle Paul was writing today’s passage from a prison cell. He said he was suffering because he preached the gospel of the Kingdom. However, suffering for Christ was no issue to Paul because he knew who he was; he had a relationship with the Lord and had committed his life to Him. When we discover who we are in Christ and begin to walk in the power and authority made available, we also will come to the place of being fully persuaded. So, regardless of what the report of man says, let me encourage you to believe God [His Word] over all other reports. Isaiah 26:3 reminds us that when we choose to believe and trust Him, he has promised to keep us in perfect peace.  Now, as we begin a new week, let’s rest in absolute confidence that whatever we commit to God, He will not only guard it but keep it. Remember, our part is to commit it unto Him [career, family, health, financial, relational…]

Have a great day, and keep chewing on God’s Word.
