Today’s Promise
August 9, 2023
Jesus is Your Anchor
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil.
Hebrews 6:19
You Need an Anchor
When you put your faith in Christ, He becomes an anchor that holds you steady when the winds and waves of life come.
There is no question that you will face some rough seas at some point.
Sometimes you may feel like you are about to sink. The world presses in from every side, and you aren’t sure what your next step should be. You feel like you are being pushed along by the currents of the storm.
When the winds blow, and the waves crash over your life, you have a strong anchor to keep you safe and grounded.
Your Anchor is Jesus
Your sure anchor is Jesus Christ. Your faith in Him gives hope for the future and security for today. As you trust in Him, He keeps you safe and secure in the storm.
With Christ as your anchor, you have an assurance of salvation, hope for all eternity, and a relationship with the living God.
When Christ is your anchor, He keeps you from drifting into dangerous waters. You won’t be dragged around by the lies of the world around you.
With Christ as your anchor, He holds you firm and stable while the world around you drifts toward destruction.
No matter what you are facing today, Jesus is your secure anchor. Rest in Him and draw on His strength. You can lean on Him amid any storm and find He is the secure anchor you need.
Look at that promise again.
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil. – Hebrews 6:19
Make these confessions
- Jesus is my sure anchor.
- He keeps me safe and secure.
- When the winds blow and the storm rises, He is my anchor.
- Jesus is my eternal security and my hope for all eternity.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
When you put your faith in Christ, He becomes an anchor that holds strong no matter how the wind blows or waves rise.
