My
children question the many tests I am allowing in their lives now. They seem a
heavy burden to you. You do not understand why I am allowing them.
My
precious ones, in the time soon coming, My enemy and yours will put you through
more tests in less time than this in an attempt to get you to deny your faith.
Those of you whose faith has not been tried will still remain to be tested by
him. If you cannot pass these, you will not pass those and you will deny Me and
spend eternity with My enemy.
Those of
you who walk in My ways continually have need of fewer tests. Those who have not passed each test
will continue being tested that I may purify the areas in you that remain under
the control of My enemy.
The tests
will continue that you may be prepared to pass the ones yet to come in the time
of much persecution.
Focus on
passing every test by responding according to My Word.
1 Peter 4:12-19
·
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 sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed,
ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
·
14 If ye be reproached for the
name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon
you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
·
15 But let none of you suffer
as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other
men's matters.
·
16 Yet if any man suffer as a
Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
·
17 For the time is come that
judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what
shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
·
18 And if the righteous
scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
·
19 Wherefore let them that
suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in
well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
