Going Through Trials?



   "There has no temptation (Trial) that has come upon you but that which is common to man; (because of Adam's sin, bringing in corruption) but God wills, that in spite of the trial (from satan, which tests your faith) to make a way of escape (Hope) that you may be able to bear it."

   The Lord's prayer reads, "Lead me not into temptation.." It is easy to think God CAN lead us into temptation because here we're asking Him not to. 
   However God is Love and He CANNOT sin. His Word declares "God cannot be tempted of evil, neither does He tempt any man to commit evil."

   It isn't easy standing up to attacks against your character, your integrity, your heath and your peace of mind just to name a few.
Yet God's Word is true. "He is Faithful Who called you Who will also keep His Word to you." Why? Because He watches over His Word to perform (keep) it.
   What Word? Oh my, His 3000 plus promises He makes to all believers in Christ. Such as Psalms 34:4 "I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from ALL my fears." 

   Staying in His Word and meditating on it produces 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear; but of  power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
   
   Need comfort in your troubles?  This will surely help if you'll take God at His Word and believe it. Psalms 34:6 "This poor man cried and the Lord heard him, and delivered him out of ALL his troubles,"
Psalms 34:19 "Many are the afflictions of the Righteous but the Lord delivers him out of them ALL." 

   Trust God Who Loves you, Who not only will comfort you in your trial but Who will deliver you from "The hand of your enemies and all them that hate you (demonic forces)."
