Wednesday’s word: May 6, 2026…
We all go through trials and storms, no matter who you are!
No one is exempt from problems.
James 1:2-4 My Brethren,count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations, Knowing this that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
‘The divers temptations' speaks of various kinds of trials that will produce in us endurance if we respond the right way.
There are 3 types of people:
1.Those facing problems now.
2.Those who have just faced problems.
3.Those about to face problems.
It is not a question of if but rather 'when.
They can hit us hard when least expected ! Just study the life of Paul in the Book of Acts and you will see a man who went trough many trials and kept pressing on in Jesus ~
Acts 14:22 'Confirming the souls of the disciples ,and exhorting them to continue in the faith ,and that we must through much tribulation enter the kingdom of God.
Trials have a purpose and God is with you in your trials.
You can have peace in the storm ! You can praise Him in the storm ! You can praise Him in the furnance of fire like the 3 Hebrew children in the Book of Daniel or you can sink in the pit of despair and self -pity and say ,Why ,Why ,Why and just murmur , complain and become a bitter person !
You choose how you handle trials!
1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith ,being more precious than of gold that perishes ,though it be tried by fire ,might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
Count it all joy !
Trials drive us closer to God if we respond this way. We can step back from our troubles ,take a look at the big picture and rejoice to know God will work all things for our good.
TRIALS COME IN ALL DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES !
So do not be surprised or caught off guard by trouble in your life.
