Tough Times
Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grevious ways in me, and lead me in the way everlasting! (Psalm 139:23-24).
Have you ever noticed that those who have the most exciting, faith-inspiring testimonies are those who have been under pressure at some time in their lives?
They are the people who stayed faithful when the pressure was on.
They are the people who believed God’s promises of safety and security in the midst of desperate crisis, dangerous situations, demonic forces, debt crises or terminal illness problems.
When you get into a hard spot, that’s not the time to back out on God or blame Him.
It’s not the time to step back and reevaluate His faithfulness.
When tough times keep dragging on and the situations around you seem to refuse to get in line with the promises of God, don’t reevaluate God!
He’s not missing it and He’s not failing!
If you’re going to reevaluate anything, reevaluate yourself!
Look and see where you have failed.
If you still can’t find out what the problem is, tell God, “Lord, I don’t know what’s wrong here, and I’m asking You to show me. But one thing I know, the problem’s not with You, and I continue to be moved by Your Word and live not by my circumstances.”
Then, when He reveals something to you, be quick to make changes.
If you cannot, ask Him to help you make changes.
Stand firm with His grace and keep honoring God with your words of commitment!
Passing through tough times?
The Lord
- looks at your pressure.
- looks upon your penitence.
- listens to your prayer.
- and shall liberate you from your problems!
