“But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.” 1. Peter 5:10
Everyone has troubles,Obstacles, Challenges and Problems. We face very often problems, affliction, suffering, and hardship. Life seems to be filled with a never-ending sequence of them, Whether it is physical financial, material, health, family, work, etc all of these hamper our success and happiness.
Life's problems have no boundaries. Rich or poor, old or young, educated or uneducated, we all experience the trials and tribulations of daily life. The fact that you're a Christian, does not mean that you are problem-free. Bible clearly tells us,
“….. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”John 16:33.
It is a affirmative promise about the life with Christ in this world.
On the contrary, as Christians we have some unique challenges that others may not have .“However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.” 1Peter4:16
The Bible teaches us that “in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us” Romans 8:37.
Whenever we are faced with impossibilities and overwhelming condition in life, it is always the smart to turn to God, We need strength, endurance, and patience to overpower the situation. we have a strong promise to cling on and claim it in your prayer. The devil will flee from you.
- “.the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 John4:4
- "My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. John 17:16
Praise the Lord
GOD BLESS
