If your faith is under fire, here are 4 things you need to do:
1. Trust God despite disturbing circumstances.
Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
2. Realize God can and will use bad things for your good.
Romans 8:28: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
3. Do your best no matter the circumstances.
Colossians 3:23: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters...
4. Forgive offenders and let God deal with them.
Genesis 50:19-20: But Joseph said to [his brothers who had sold him into slavery], “Don’t be afraid. Am I in the place of God? You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives."
Are you going through testing or trial? Apply these 4 principles to your circumstances and be blessed!
