“ADONAI YAHWEH WILL DELIVER YOU FROM YOUR DIFFICULT SITUATION FOR HIS GLORY”
Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:
“The righteous person suffers many evils, but Adonai rescues him out of them all. He protects all his bones; not one of them gets broken.” (Psalms 34:19-20)
Even when bad things happen to the good and godly ones, the Lord will save them and not let them be defeated by what they face. God will be your bodyguard to protect you when trouble is near. Not one bone will be broken.
WHY THE RIGHTEOUS SUFFER
Suffering can sometimes be a design for learning. A believer’s suffering can be a means for repentance. Out of suffering come the strongest souls. God’s wounded often make His best soldiers.
Therefore, let us not be the troop that kills its wounded. Saints of God, pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
Many are the sufferings that you go through, but for sure, the Lord will see you through. You go through many trials, but the Lord is your strength. You are attacked by the devil, but the Lord is your shield.
You are wearied, still the Lord is your helper. You are cast down but not crushed at all. You are afflicted by the devil, but the Lord is your healer. You are pushed so hard, but the Lord is your fortress.
Saints of God heed to this truth:
Faithfulness to God does not secure or assure believers’ liberty, deliverance or freedom from trouble, pain and suffering in their lives because these could be your test of faith.
As believers, we must expect and anticipate trouble, pain, and suffering in this world (John 16:1-4, 33). The Holy Bible is filled with godly and righteous people who experience great amounts of suffering for a variety of reasons.
Some Biblical Examples Of Individual Sufferings:
Joseph (Genesis 37) suffered in his brothers’ hands. He was sold to Egypt and suffered in the hands of Potiphar’s wife (Genesis 39). He was imprisoned for no just reasons (Genesis 40).
David suffered in the hand of King Saul for no just reasons also (1 Samuel 18 / 19).
Job suffered tremendously in the hand of Satan for his uprightness and blamelessness (Job 1 / 2).
Jeremiah suffered conspiracies and condemnation in the hands of the Israelites for his stand for God in godliness, righteousness, and blamelessness (Jeremiah 18:18-20 / 20).
Daniel, Abednego, Meshach, and Shadrach also suffered for their belief in God Almighty (Daniel 3:15-20 / 6:15-17).
Paul the Apostle suffered many things due to the conspiracies of the Jews (Acts 23 / 24).
The Early Church also suffered a lot for their faith too.
YOUR TESTS AND TRIALS WILL BRING ABOUT YOUR TESTIMONY AND TRIUMPH!
Everybody shout, “AMEN HALLELUJAH!”
Shalom and good morning.
