“Test all things; hold fast what is good” 1 Thessalonians 5:21, NKJV.

In this hour, there are things happening, even unawares, to cause you to let go of everything that pertains to life and godliness. The devil is sending evil spirits, distractions, and various temptations to try to pull you away from the things of God. Yet, now is not the time to let go. Now is the time to hold fast.

If God says to hold fast, or have a firm grip on what is good, that implies there is something very important that you have, and there is someone who will try to pull away, turn you away, take, deceive, or get you to concede what you have. But hold fast to Jesus. Hold fast to your pursuit of the Great Commission. Hold fast to what God has taught you. Hold on to a pure heart. Hold on to your focus. Hold on to His word. Hold on to getting up each day and spending time in God’s word and in prayer. Hold on to going to church and worship. Hold fast to the love of God. Hold fast to walking out every assignment God has specifically given you. Hold fast to it all. Don’t let go of it.

The greater One lives in you, and you have the power and authority to have a firm grip on everything good. Don’t let go, my brother. Hold fast.

Prayer. Father. I give You all the glory, honor, and praise. Thank You so much for all You have done, and are doing in my life. Sometimes, it gets hard, but help me hold fast to everything that pertains to life and godliness. Help me to hold fast to You and give no place to idols. You are first in my life. Help Your people not to be asleep in this hour. Help Your body have a firm grip on the Great Commission and advancing kingdom. No matter what the cost. I will hold fast. I was born for such a time as this, and I will hold fast. In Jesus’ name. Amen!
