TESTED BY THE STORM

2Timothy 2:1

You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

We understand that as long as we live here on earth there will be times when the storm would rage. Troubles would arise in varying capacities. There will be times when things may not look as we want it to, when our faith is challenged.

We must remember that we are not alone, because just as the disciples were afraid with Jesus in the boat the same way we may become afraid thinking we are alone. He is with us.

Let us be reminded that nothing stands to be accepted as true or as what it is, till it has passed its own test.

1Peter 1:7

that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

Revelation 2:2

"I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars;

Every promotion comes after the test has been passed. Yes it might look difficult yet when it is over you get promoted.

1Peter 5:10

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.

For just as Paul recorded:

Romans 8:28

And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

You will not be in that eclipse for long, the Lord will deliver you and you come out stronger and better.

Psalms 91:14

The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name.

So the storm may test you but it can never overwhelm you, you are a conqueror.

Instead of feeling down, recall all the good things the Lord has done for you.

Glory to His name forever.

He calls us blessed.

Love
