Going Through Trials - Be Encouraged

You have a huge trial. You have many trials and they don't let up. The trial is a chronic trial and you don't see any end in sight. It seems like others don't go through as many trials as you and you question God. You feel God's punishing you with trials and you don't think He loves you. You don't have the right attitude; you see trials as enemies instead of as friends.

A trial is the testing of your faith, which is trusting God, relying on God, depending on God. True faith means that you are trusting in God's Word (John 5:24).

Trials are like exercise. Trials are a means by which we learn to let Christ live His life in us. Trials aregiven so we see it's not about us, but Christ living in us; not about our power, but the power of the Spirit; not about us, but about God getting the glory.

Pray for wisdom in your trials because God wants you to know why you are going through the trial (Psalm 119:67). God gives you a trial to humle you to show you that He is God and that you are but man; that He is your Master and that you are His servant (Numbers 12:3).

These trials have come so that your faith ma by proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 1 Peter 1:6-7
