Trials and Temptations
2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything ( James 1 2-) NIV
When God is getting ready to do something big in his children's life, he starts off by making sure that all you have learned well within in your faith, is built on a foundation, of wisdom, joy, hope, and belief and most all " Trust" As you read this scripture from James, here we are able to read on how the father tells us that we should be happy and joyful of the trials that come upon us, its through those trials we are able to see, who we really are. It's never about giving up, because satan would love that, it's about trusting God, and leaning upon the greater understanding on what he is doing, while molding you into the child he has called you to be.
For me personally was a test week, satan wanted to do all within his power to get me to be angry at God, based on what I was seeing happening, for a month that I know, I have to be focused, because of the mission assignments, the lord has placed upon my spirit to do for the building of the kingdom. With all great testimonies we have to go through a trial and a test, just so the father can see all that you have learned you now can apply. See, the father did not give us the spirit of fear, now by that verse we are being told, that if we place our faith and trust in God, we will be able to withstand, any lies from satan. They are just that, lies from satan.
While having one of my movie nights, I watched a Movie Called Benjamin Buttons, starring Brad Pitt: This was a great movie, based on a man, that was going backwards in time through aging, and how he experienced life, based upon on how life looks, when we are learning to love not just based on how the world tells us, but simply by the heart. It lead me into my blog this week " You never know what' coming for you" This was a great quote in this movie, and rings true into our lives here in reality, we never know what is coming for us, because God has away of bringing things to us when we least expect.
I love those moments, when you open your email, and their is something from someone you were just thinking about, or answering your phone, and their is that call you wanted to come through, or checking the mail, and that long awaited check is there, for all that praying you had been doing wasn't in vain ! See, when we trust God and all the promises he gives to us, we allow the laws of the universe to align it, and bring it fourth to open up a vessel of higher and connected energy that is through faith of what God has and can do for you.
Especially in those moments, when you feel all is lost, God is just watching you the whole time, saying " if only my child knew what I had coming for him " we would really change on how we think, see God knows the storm before we do, and already he has aligned all that is needed to weather the storm, and that is when we have cling on to faith, and truly just God ! We haven't begun to see what he is about to do for us, our latter days will be great, the Father bestows riches from unexpected places, that has your name written all over it.
Don't keep your mind so absorbed on riches being only in the material realm, rather than seeing how the lord will bless you in the spiritual and through that all your needs will be met according to the fathers will. Trust him and watch what he will bring to you !
The Most valuable thing we have in life is love and time. Together and binded as one, we will set out and do something very big in this world, to bring Joy and Light and most all of all " Hope"
Be ready for the blessings that are coming, be receptive daily, for God always does the greatest wonders, when you least expect it.
God Bless us all,
One Love One Blood shed for you and me !
