When the Christian faith is under siege, what does a Christian have to do? Some would say hold on to it. Fight off the temptation and continue evangelizing the Word. Others would have to meditate to gain an answer. Climb a prayer mountain, do fasting or simply read through verses just to have a convincing. But there would be some that will admit that this is a hard question to answer particularly in the present.
Even if we read the Bible often and spread the Word of God if we do not follow through, it is useless. Despite the trials, we should completely trust His unconditional love and live a happy disposition throughout the storm. This is hard to do for someone who is undergoing pain but if we are real followers of Christ we will be able to survive the trials.
Prayers can do wonders for the challenged Christians. If we are moved to temptation, close your eyes and talk to God. Doing occasional fasting can help strengthen our faith. One must be objective in completing the process. One must be steadfast in maintaining a happy disposition even if your stomach is begging for food.
Learn to apply what you preach. Many Christians fail to do this. They evangelize the words but fail to put in action. They make use of the verses but do not completely understand them. This sad fact is affecting the perception of others leading their critics to sin unconsciously.
Keeping a happy disposition while under siege is indeed hard. However reading through the book of Job we come to realize that sometimes we have to undergo a time of ruin to build a better relationship with Him. If we have not gone through it will we ever seek him?
God never abandons us in our darkest hours, so why should we? We should be steadfast in following His words. He spoke of the truth and the truth always sets as free. It gives us strength and rejuvenates our hope. Applying faith into those words will ensure a peaceful and prosperous life.
If the Lord sacrificed His only son for us, what is our right to not give everything up for the faith? A religion is just a group if it fails to show its faith. Do not claim anything until you can show it action. It is like looking in a mirror and forgetting how you look afterwards. Live the faith and earn its rewards.
