Bible Verse of The Day – When God Puts Us To The Test – 1-14-18

Greetings! 

How many of us enjoy preparing for and taking tests? It’s safe to say that not many of us enjoy it much. 

But life is actually a never-ending series of tests that we have to pass if we wish to advance. And God is the test administrator! 

We just published a brand new video on this topic. It’s eye-opening, to say the least. 

Please click here to watch the video now. 

When we face a trial in our lives, God can use it to test us. Whether we pass the test or not is completely up to us.

But whether we advance in our lives is also dependent on whether we pass the test! 

Please take a few minutes to watch the video and see what God has to say about the tests we face in our lives.

Enjoy the rest of your day and be sure to seek God when trials come, so we can be sure to pass the test the first time we take it! 

Sincerely in Christ,

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-4-17

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

These are very powerful words.

Jesus spoke of the fact that in the world, we will have tribulation. But, He told us to be of good cheer. He also promised that in Him, we would have peace.

How? How can we have peace in the midst of tribulation? How can we be of good cheer while being tossed about by a storm?

By way of the fact that He has overcome the world. That’s how!

The world, as Jesus spoke of it, doesn’t just refer to the people of the world… the unbelievers or those who do evil. But He referred more to the world as a whole. The ways of the world, the evil in the world, the storms of life and the things we face each and every day.

These things can and will wear us down if we let them. They will suck the life out of us if we try to face them on our own, by our own power, strength and understanding.

Instead, Jesus reassured us that He has already overcome the world. And because of this, if our faith and trust are in Him, then we can also overcome the world, and all of the things in it.

He didn’t promise that it would be easy. He didn’t promise that it would happen instantly. He didn’t promise that we would be able to understand it all. He simply promised that, because He overcame the world, we could have peace and joy because of His victory. And because He overcame the world, we can also be overcomers in Christ.

So, as we feel the weight of the cares of this world on our shoulders, we need to pull our strength from Him, and stand up. And as we stand up, we need to speak to our storm and say “Peace, be still”!

Mark 4:39 (NKJV) 39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-6-15

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Some of us are facing some serious challenges in our lives right now.

In fact, the mountain in front of you might seem insurmountable. They loom over us like a black cloud that will suck the life out of us.

But Jesus has told us to be of good cheer. Why? Because He overcame the world. He overcame insurmountable odds Himself, for us.

He told us that we would face tribulations in this world. And it’s a fact that we do. Nobody will argue with this for one second.

But as we place our faith and trust in Him, He gives us what we need to overcome those obstacles.

Don’t get this wrong. Sometimes things don’t turn out the way we think they should. Sometimes the end result of something isn’t at all what we would have wanted.

But in it all and through it all, God holds us up. And, if we let Him, He will give us His peace.

Trust Him, children of God. If there is anyone worthy of our trust, it’s our Savior and Redeemer.
