“COMMIT YOUR AFFLICTION TO GOD & LET HIM TURN IT AROUND FOR DIVINE INTERVENTION”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“For our light and transient troubles are achieving for us an everlasting glory whose weight is beyond description” (2 Corinthians 4:17).

For our light and momentary affliction and this slight distress of the passing hour is ever more and more abundantly preparing and producing and achieving for us an everlasting weight of glory beyond all measure. Excessively surpassing all comparisons and all calculations, a vast and transcendent glory and blessedness never to cease!.

Joseph was sold to merchants by his own brothers who were jealous. Later, he was falsely accused and thrown into prison.
The chief butler, for whom he interpreted a dream, did not remember him for two years.
But God did not forget Joseph.

However deep the crisis you are in, you are not forgotten, for the Bible says that the Lord is acquainted with all our ways (Psalms 139:3).

Promotion came for Joseph. Out of prison, only in the throne was Pharaoh greater than Joseph, for he was made ruler over all the land of Egypt (Genesis 41:40).

David suffered. An object of jealousy of his own father-in-law, king Saul. David had to run for his life. Some of the most encouraging Psalms were written during those times, and since then, many generations continue to find strength and encouragement, identifying themselves in similar situations.

What have you done during this time of suffering? Does your situation stand as a testimony to the goodness and faithfulness of God, or has it become an opportunity of anger and seeking self-pity?

Have you sought to praise the Lord and thank Him for this time of suffering in your life as a time of blessing? Have you noticed that you have been remembering the Lord more now, in these sufferings than you would at other times? “

Before I was afflicted, I went astray, but now Your word do I keep hearing, receiving, loving and obeying it You are good, kind and do good; teach me Your statutes (Psalms 119:67-68).

Everybody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!”

Shalom and good morning.
