Hebrews 10:23 "Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised.") We look for a promise.
1Peter 5:7 "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." This is the promise.
O my friends. Many of us are in what appears a hopeless situation with no end insight. Take courage my friend, who ever the Holy Spirit thru me is addressing, Jesus is the answer. Lets consider the what God wants for you today.
Suffering as a Christian
1Peter 4:12 "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy."
O my suffering friends. I believe that Jesus, thru me, wants to send a message of hope to all who are suffering various trials and trouble that crush your being without mercy, it seems.
Sometimes things can get so difficult that even the most serious believers look heavenward with serious questions about whether or not God is involved in their affairs anymore. Even Jesus Himself cried out on the cross, “My God, why have you forsaken me?”
Sometimes it seems like God is so engaged with others that He has not recognized my pain and discouragement that I've been hurting for so long. I have suffered from various physical trials starting at Bible College in 1975 up to today. It does seem cruel at times, that I have had to suffer for sooo long, but I don't know just what my Lord has in mind, I just know it has to be good.
There are times when strong believers in Christ Jesus even question whether they are a child of God. Why would He (Elohim) even allow such pain in their lives....to this I'd like to present some hope today.
My friend's, all of us, when things go rather smooth in our Christian lives, we take for granted living in the blessings that are ours in being a child of God. Wouldn't it be wonderful if those times would last until we go home to be with Jesus.
I have studied, of late, the passion of our Lord Jesus Christ. Passion? what a strange word. It means, vengeance thru suffering. O my friends, I weep when I read about the beating and the cross suffering of Jesus our Redeemer.
We are not asked by our Abba Father to die for the sins of even one person. Jesus died to make it possible for the whole world to become children of God. It is God's will for us to occasionally go thru times of suffering in our flesh to remind us of the price that was paid by the Son of God as He represented us as the Son of man.
When all hell breaks loose around us, the enemy of our souls is after us to abandon this God that is supposed to love and care for us. Don't give that a second thought!! Remember what Peter said....1Peter 5:7 "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." Go ahead, cast or hurl that trouble that you're facing right now & trust Jesus to get you thru it, AND HE WILL!! Just give Him time....Someone has said that, "The truth is that the difficulty you are facing is a spiritual refining process."
Be blessed my friends, don't give up, and trust, trust & trust. TRUST is the greatest gift that a born again Believer in Christ Jesus can give back to Jesus for saving your soul from the Lake Of Fire!!
