Enlarge Your Borders

We will not make it by trusting in our own reason, intellect, and abilities. We are commanded by God to continue applying, doing, and believing what He has taught us as truth. God will not do for us, nor overlook what we refused to be diligent about. Eternal salvation is keeping our minds fixed on what leads to life; our borders are enlarged by looking straight ahead, but they will not be enlarged if as far we can see is ourselves. We must go beyond ourselves! We must go beyond our level of comfort. Only steady, unhindered progress keeps our way secure. Paul knew that God was able to keep what he had committed until that day! Hold fast! Keep the good things committed to you by the Holy Spirit that dwells within us. This is how each believer expands their borders; by trusting and moving through life trusting in God. We must do our best and trust in God for what we are unable to do ourselves. We must depart from iniquity and be diligent to present ourselves approved to God.
