Times of hardness are inevitable!
It’s true that we’ve been redeemed from the curse.
And there’s nothing Satan can do to reverse that.

But-
– he is going to challenge you on that!
So don’t be surprised when things get tough!

Times will come when you have to stand strictly by faith-
– when you’ll have to speak and act as though what God says is true even when you can’t feel it or see it happening around you.

There will be times when everything looks terrible.
That’s when you must endure hardness as a good soldier.

So many people hear the word of faith and they say, “Hey! I’m going to try that.”
Then when the hard times come, they give up and cave in!

Living by faith is not something you try!
It’s a lifestyle.

You do it when it’s hard.
You do it when it’s easy.

You do it all the time because you’re not doing it just to get in on the benefits.
You’re doing it because you know that faith pleases God (Heb. 11:6).

Things may get a little rough at times.
But-
You’ll always come out on top if you endure hardness as a good soldier!
If you refuse to faint and fall away, you will have the victory.

The only defeated Christian is the one who quits!
