What are you learning in your process of pain? Have you found the lesson in what you are going through? Have you secured your testimony so that you can help others get through? Has your process of pain caused you to get stronger and to grow in faith? Are you letting the devil win by murmuring, complaining, giving up, giving in, and by surrendering to temptation?
God has already told us that He wants to take what the devil meant for evil and work it together for our good but if we succumb to the evil, how can God work it together for our good? When you succumb to something, you give in to it. Instead of fighting off temptation, you yield to it. God does not want us to yield to the pressures of life because when we do, it causes us to die spiritually. God wants us to live. He wants to be us to be strong in Him and the power of His might. He wants us to fight the good fight of faith and not to yield to the fear that is being presented to us by the devil.
We get to choose. We get to choose whether or not we are going to allow what the enemy is doing to hinder us, hurt us, and keep us from walking in faith or we can choose to cast the care of it all on God, knowing that God cares for us and knowing that He will take it and work it together for our good and His glory. How we handle what the devil is doing is our choice. We need to choose to trust God to bring good out of everything that the devil is trying to do that is evil in our lives. Amen
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Genesis 50:20 (KJV)
But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
