    Trial Brings Unspeakable Blessings

    Contributed by Adewale B T Shittu on May 16, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 17,786 views

    The blessings from God is a covenant promise, but when a man is chosen by God for a greater blessing, then trial is a necessity. Every man in the Word of God that entered into a realm of rise and shine, expansion and explosion was tried.

    Beloved, God is a giver of blessings. God is conditioned to bless His own people. He has the liberty to bless whosoever He wishes to bless and He is a distributor of divine blessings. In Genesis 1:28, the word of God declared ’And God bless them and said, be fruitful and mulitiply and ...read more

    Having the roots of total submission and thanksgiving for His undying love as our Lord, Savior and King leads to sacrificial living that brings honor and glory to His name! O to have the faith as tiny as a mustard seed!

    Roots of Faith Luke 17 :5-10 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 Since “religion is not a private pursuit, but is a shared family responsibility,” how difficult it is to rebuke and extend forgiveness to those who have “sinned against us” (17:1)!

    Forging Our Faith

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 4, 2025
     | 134 views

    "Forging our Faith" involves the ways in which trials, demands, delays, and daily dependence on God shape and reinforce our reliance on His promises and power. Faith is not developed in a vacuum but in the context of real-world challenges ...

    People see the world from different angles. I’d like to suggest that the Holy Spirit gives us Christ’s perspective. We need to start seeing the world through Christ-colored glasses, which is not the same as rose-colored glasses. Jesus saw compassionately, but he also saw clearly and realistically.

    How many of you own a flashlight? I probably have half a dozen, and most of them have dead batteries in them. I’d be lost without the flashlight app on my smart phone, because it’s always charged. It works. It helps me see where I’m going. It is, to use Jesus’ word, healthy. I think you can all ...read more

    As we journey through life, we inevitably encounter moments of pain, heartbreak, and struggles. Yet, what if these experiences, far from being signs of God's absence, are actually evidence of His deep presence and transformative power, that can lead us to a brighter future.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (1 Peter 4:12-13) [12] Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: [13] But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's ...read more

    When God originates, He orchestrates. God will grant us the strength we need to finish His work. Expect challenges when doing God's will. Choose to look at problems with eyes of faith, not fear.
