Work Out Your Own Salvation With Fear and Trembling

Therefore my beloved, just as always you have obeyed, not only as in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.” – Philippians 2:12-13

Work Out Your Own Salvation – Pastor David Jeremiah

Matthew Henry CommentaryPhilippians 2:12-18: “We must be diligent in the use of all the means which lead to our salvation, persevering therein to the end. With great care, lest, with all our advantages, we should come short. Work out your salvation, for it is God who worketh in you. This encourages us to do our utmost, because our labour shall not be in vain: we must still depend on the grace of God. The working of God’s grace in us, is to quicken and engage our endeavours. God’s good-will to us, is the cause of his good work in us. Do your duty without murmurings. Do it, and do not find fault with it. Mind your work, and do not quarrel with it. By peaceableness; give no just occasion of offence. The children of God should differ from the sons of men. The more perverse others are, the more careful we should be to keep ourselves blameless and harmless. The doctrine and example of consistent believers will enlighten others, and direct their way to Christ and holiness, even as the light-house warns mariners to avoid rocks, and directs their course into the harbour. Let us try thus to shine. The gospel is the word of life, it makes known to us eternal life through Jesus Christ. Running, denotes earnestness and vigour, continual pressing forward; labouring, denotes constancy, and close application. It is the will of God that believers should be much in rejoicing; and those who are so happy as to have good ministers, have great reason to rejoice with them.”

David Jeremiah Preaching on Spiritual Warfare

Spiritual Warfare:”When Christians Wouldn’t Know They Were in a War”

Pastor David Jeremiah pointed out that our present culture is in spiritual crossroad. There is an increasing intensity of spiritual warfare. And how so many Christians are unaware of who the real spiritual enemy is. On this teaching, he will talk about the true nature of the enemy of Christians. He started with these verses in 1 Timothy 4:1Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons;” and Ephesians 6:12 “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,[a] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” 

Spiritual warfare,  “from a Christian perspective, is the cosmic war of good versus evil: its battles are fought daily between God and Satan; between the Christian Church and the world system ruled by our spiritual enemy; and within every child of God, between the Holy Spirit and the lusts of the carnal flesh. The clear meanings of good and evil, as defined by God rather than man, are revealed within the verses of the Holy Bible and the life of Jesus Christ.[1]

David P. Jeremiah is a conservative evangelical Christian author, televangelist, and currently the senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church, an evangelical megachurch in El Cajon, California, a suburb of San Diego.

Don’t Give place to the Devil.” – David Jeremiah

Satan cannot defeat us if we walk in the Spirit.” – David Jeremiah

We do not have to live our lives in the fear of the devil. We only to come to the spiritual center, which is Jesus Christ, and to his cross. When we bow our knees before Him, first of all to give Him our and ask for the forgiveness of our sins. He will come and fill us with the strength we need to meet every challenge of everyday.” – David Jeremiah
