Are You Loyal to God, Country, and Your Family?

Have you ever noticed that righteousness and loyalty go together? If you are not showing your true loyalty to God, country, and your family, then you are not going to experience God's best. You should also be loyal to your friends, and even your job. Proverbs 21:21 (NASB) states, "He who pursues righteousness and loyalty finds life." This is the Christian way!

Loyal people are truly very honorable people as well. When you're loyal, you will stick in there through thick and thin, and well as in the highs and lows of any relationship. When you're loyal, you will keep your word to God, country, and your family no matter what, even if you have to cross great hurdles. Loyal people are respectful of their country and their leaders, even if they do not agree with everything that they do or say. Loyal people also honor our God, country, and family to stand up and defend them when needed.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV) says, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make straight your paths."

The secret to staying strong in your faith is truly no secret at all. You just have to live in the strength that God provides, not your own! When you feel you are at your weakest, that is when you must exercise your faith the hardest. You know that when you physically grow there are growing pains, and the same is true spiritually. As you continue to stretch and work out your faith, it will become easier. (2 Corinthians 12:10) says, "I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become."

You should always refuse to be defeated by the things around you and stay loyal, even if the odds seem insurmountable. Perhaps one definition of courage might be to stay strong always moving forward, even when most would give up and surrender their ground out of fear, because (Joshua 1:9) tells us; "Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

Are you always truly faithful in the things that you’re committed to? Can you truly be more loyal than you already are? Can you rise even higher than you already have? Do not let the distractions of every day life keep you from always pursuing and strengthening your loyalty, and, always look for ways to show your loyalty to those around you. You will also build respect and trust with others that come to know you, and keep the respect and trust of those that already know you.

When you stay truly loyal, you are the person of integrity that God intended for you to be, and truly wants you to be as one of His children. Be strong and courageous today for God, country and your family, and never allow yourself to be defeated. As you daily pursue your loyalty through the years, you will be blessed with the abundant life God has planned for you!

Loyalty for God, country and your family should transcend in all aspects of your life. Loyalty can also be incorporated into a business place.
