John 16:22 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.

We’ve been studying for several months in our Sunday morning worship hour the book of Philippians. But I want to bring your attention to this passage in John 16:22 because I believe that it holds some of the best news we could possibly hear today—this Resurrection Sunday.

Last week we looked at the importance of standing fast by pursuing peace in our relationships with other believers. We saw the situation between two women who were not at peace with one another and realized the importance of pursuing peace with others in order to stand fast in the Lord. This morning we’ll be looking at Philippians 4:4.

Stand fast – that’s what we saw last week in verse 1 of Philippians 4. Paul says…

Philippians 4:1 Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved.

As followers of Christ we are to be steadfast. We ought to be pictures of stability to the world around us. A faithful Christian should be stable and secure and immovable by Satan and the wickedness that so easily entangles the world.

That sounds great doesn’t it? It sounds wonderful.

But in reality standing fast is one of those spiritual disciplines that’s easier preached than practiced.

Should more pastor’s blog? Pastor Tod Bolsinger thinks we should and makes a good argument for doing so. He’s been reviewing Hugh Hewitt’s book Blog which I’d like to read soon.
