PROBLEMS and STRUGGLES – WHAT TO KNOW?

Problems, Struggles, Trials, Testings and Tribulations come in different shapes and sizes. The LORD who called us is Faithful, and He will keep us safe through them all – Is. 43:1-2. He will never leave us nor forsake us – Heb. 13:5; Gen. 28:15; Deut. 31:6, 8; Josh. 1:5.

The Word of God has some encouraging words for all who are going through a season of trials and testings.

PROBLEMS are COMMON – “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.” – Psalms 34:19 

PROBLEMS are CONSTANT – “2 [Jesus] Being forty days tempted of the devil…13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he [devil] departed from him for a season.” – Luke 4:2, 13

PROBLEMS are CONSTRUCTIVE – “2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. 4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” – James 1:2-4

Trust God at all times, even when it seems there is no help coming your way. Our Father in heaven cares for us, and He will see us through it all.
