James 1:2
Consider it wholly joyful, my brethren, whenever you are enveloped in or encounter trials of any sort or fall into various temptations. AMP
The purpose of tests and trials is for your greater good at the end. Trials will deal with your pride and help you to be humble. It proves you, helps you to know who you really are. (Psalm 105:19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.KJV) Whatever you are going through did not happen by chance, God has a purpose for the trials you are going through. The Lord has resources He wants to bestow on those that have been proven faithful to the end. God will not announce the faith that has not been tested. Overcoming means confrontation and conquest. The only way to know if you’re qualified for what God has for you is when you go through that trial and still come out strong.
Friends, the question I ask myself today is, what is my response when I encounter all sorts of trials and challenges? How do you react to problems? Do you complain and murmur, or do you praise God for all things? Let us praise God in response to trials because something good will always come out of it.
Prayer: Dear Lord, help me to praise You in whatever situation I find myself today, and if my pride ever grows bigger than the love I have for you Lord, please remind me it’s your air that I breathe, Amen.
Otuokon, Ubokudom
