How To Keep The Faith x Sarah Jakes Roberts
Raise your hand if you’re feeling like Jonathan this year? It’s been rough with all the doubt, despair, and watching folks fall behind. But not you. You’re the standout, still pushing through when it feels like everything’s against you. We get it—it’s tough to keep smiling when it feels like your world’s crumbling. But hey, when things get chaotic, we’re called to keep moving. If God promised it, then that’s all you need to keep running your race. Here’s your reminder to stay on track and not give up. It might be tough right now, but hang in there—the payoff is coming!

we have a responsibility to hang on to faith at a time when others are losing faith and they’re losing faith with good reason because the evidence is seemingly all around that they are experiencing destruction that they’re going to be demolished that their world is going to be turned upside down but for some reason there is this crazy Jonathan who refuses to believe what everyone else believes about the situation oh God if I do this right there are going to be some people who walk out of this room who refuse to
believe what the world is saying about the world God if I do this right there are going to be some people who refuse to believe what everyone else is willing to believe about our families about our education about our judicial system if I do this right there’s going to be about two or three and I only need two or three I’ll tell you who are going to be crazy enough to put their faith into action because we cannot afford to believe be like those who shrink back in the face of adversity we must be people
who push forward even in the midst of utter chaos if I do this right it’ll be about one maybe two of us who decide that it cannot happen on my watch if I do this right God says that it doesn’t matter how many of them you get because it doesn’t matter whether God Saves by many or by few it could be just one of us who are willing to say God I refuse to believe what everyone else is willing to believe I’m trying to protect not I’m trying to protect Jonathan must have made a decision that I will protect what I
believe I’m sorry that felt good to me because it’s a lot of people trying to give up but I made a decision even earlier this year I got to reup my decision every now I got to renew my mind every now and then every now and then I got to remind my spirit that I have made a decision to not believe what the world believes I have made a decision that I will not give up I have made a decision that if the sink is shipping I’mma hold my breath cuz I don’t abandon when things get hard I’ve made a decision
I don’t abandon ship I’mma stay where God planted me I’mma believe what God said I’m supposed to believe if God didn’t switch up I’m not switching up either if God said stay planted I’m 10 toes down on this day God whatever you want to do in the earth Jonathan I made a decision that it doesn’t matter how much oppression it looks like I’m under it doesn’t matter how much systemic racism I may be under I’ve made a decision that if God says that there will be Deliverance for my family if God says
there will be Deliverance for my people if God said his kingdom will come and his will will be done I will not give up on what God said I don’t care who falls off a th000 on my right side 10,000 on my left side I will stay planted
