They returned, … strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying, We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God.
Acts 14:22

Spiritual support
Paul and Barnabas preached the gospel of grace in various cities on their missionary journey. As a result, people came to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. These then possessed forgiveness of sins and were saved for heaven.

On the return journey, the Lord’s servants visited these new converts and tried to help them on their journey of faith:

They strengthened the souls of the disciples. This inner fortification happens through sound instruction in the Word of God. The better we know the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus, the more our assurance of salvation is strengthened. That is why it is important that we regularly read the Bible and listen to the preaching of the Word. Let us accept the teaching of Christians whom the Lord has enabled to explain biblical truth simply!
They exhorted the disciples to continue or persevere in the faith. The faith relationship with the Lord Jesus must be cultivated daily so that we remain close to Him and count on His help. How important personal prayer is! Christians who have been following the Lord for a long time can support us in this by being an example to us in their trust in the Lord.
As disciples of the Lord, we experience tribulations and difficulties on the journey of faith. If we are rooted in the Word of God and maintain a living relationship with the Lord Jesus, we will not be discouraged by such temptations.

Today’s reading: 1 Samuel 28:15-25 · Colossians 1:12-23
