Stand // Isaiah 7:9

Wow! You know how sometimes a verse jumps out and snags you? Well, today’s did that to me. It reminds me of the quote oft attributed to Alexander Hamilton, “Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.” So, for what do you stand? In what, or whom, do you place your faith? As we march closer to Christmas, we celebrate how God took a stand for you and me by coming to earth in the Christ child. That stand was to deliver us from sin and to conquer death. Will you take a stand for God? Will you take the necessary risks? Will you do what it takes to point people to Him? I pray you will, and stand in the faith; for as Isaiah 7:9 tells says, “If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all.”
