Key Scripture:
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” – Galatians 6:9 (NIV)
Reflection:
There will be seasons when obeying God and doing good feels exhausting and unnoticed. You may pray faithfully, serve consistently, or resist temptation repeatedly and still see little visible fruit. In those moments, Scripture urges you not to grow weary in doing good, because in due time you will reap if you do not give up.
Weariness is understandable, but it becomes dangerous when it leads to quitting. The enemy would love for you to conclude that obedience does not matter, that your prayers are pointless, or that no one cares. God, however, sees every act of faithfulness, even the ones you forget, and none of them are wasted.
Perseverance is built one decision at a time: choosing to keep praying, keep forgiving, keep showing up, and keep resisting sin even when your emotions are low. As you continue, your roots go deeper into God’s character rather than into visible outcomes, and that makes you unshakeable.
Prayer:
God, You know where I feel weary. Strengthen my heart to keep doing what is right, even when I don’t see immediate results. Remind me that You are faithful and that You honour perseverance. Amen.
Today’s Action Step:
Identify one area where you were tempted to quit (prayer, serving, forgiving, resisting a sin). Decide one small, concrete step that represents “not giving up” today.
