Life is full of ups and downs. In times of difficulties, you are left with a few or no choices. But good Christians can turn to the scriptures to gain strength and hope from Bible verses about not giving up.
Have you ever thought of giving up in life? That is a normal feeling or an experience everyone goes through once in a while. The tidal waves of life are real but a good Christian must always be steadfast in the Lord. Reading Bible verses about not giving up in life can inspire you to face your challenges with hope. Because Jesus Christ is bigger, stronger and higher than the highs and lows.
Even the apostles such as Paul with all the great anointing faced a lot of life challenges (hunger, financial constraints, rejection, insults, imprisonment, persecution etc)
But remember that, the Lord is ever ready to help His children. When all hope is gone, remember that God will never leave you alone. It’s a matter of building up your faith. Because faith in Christ Jesus moves any mountain of obstruction.
In this post, I have listed a number of encouraging Bible verses about not giving up. The Spirit of God Who is our Comforter will strengthen you and give you hope while you read through these scriptures.
