The Blessedness of Suffering
Series Philippians
40
May the Lord teach us not to despise any gift given to us from God, and that especially goes for the gift of suffering, because it is so difficult for us to understand when we are in the midst of suffering, heartache, pain, sorrow, or fear, how it is such a blessing. It is faith in a God who cannot lie that upholds in that that truth—certainly not sight. From our text in Philippians 1:27-30, I would have you note three truths given to Christians in the midst of their sufferings: (1) Stand as One in Suffering (Philippians 1:27); (2) Do Not Fear Your
Adversaries (Philippians 1:28); and (3) Suffering for Christ Is a Gracious Gift (Philippians 1:29-30).
