God upholds and preserves the believer through His sovereign power and grace, ensuring our endurance in faith.
The sermon asserts that God's sustaining hand is a source of strength for believers. In Psalm 63:8, 'My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me,' it is presented that God's right hand symbolizes His strength and divine protection over His people. This assurance highlights that believers are kept by the power of God, reassuring us that we cannot be lost or taken from His care. Additionally, Philippians 1:6 explains that 'He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.' Thus, the believer's preservation is rooted in God's fidelity and grace, offering confidence that we will persevere in faith as we rely on Him.
