Category: Being Tested by God

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-20-21

Job 23:10-11 (NKJV) 10 But He knows the way that I take; When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold. 11 My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and not turned aside.

Yes and Amen!

We will all be tested. God says He will test the hearts and minds of the righteous. That’s us, His children.

May we come forth as Job did, like gold!

Psalm 7:9  (NKJV) 9 Oh, let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, But establish the just; For the righteous God tests the hearts and minds.

When we are tested, if we trust God by holding fast to His steps, we won’t turn aside.

Notice it doesn’t say to hold fast to our steps? That’s key right there. As we go through tests and trials, we will find that God will provide us with His steps to keep us by His side.

Keeping His steps is what brings victory in any given “testing season”.

Some may say, “well, I don’t know His steps in this season”.

We all have been there and we know that feeling. If we haven’t already, we need to shut out the noise around us and listen. That is how we will get counsel from Him and increase our learning and knowing what to do.

Proverbs 1:5 (NKJV) 5 A wise man will hear and increase learning, And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel…

Noise will only distract us from hearing and getting His wise counsel, and His very important steps at a most critical time.

Get with Him. He will bring counsel through His word. And if we do all the things He is requesting of us, we won’t be on our own. He will have our backs.

When we get to the end of our test, we will look back and be astonished at how He saved us. And we will be as Job was, like gold, enjoying the peace that comes from obedience.

God is faithful!!
