Opis

Christ's followers were not saved to be cloistered from crisis. Trauma, trials, and tests are all essential elements related to the development of our faith. Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing. James 1:2-4 Believers have been given a resource that we must learn to rely upon in order to overcome our obstacles and opposition. That resource is the Holy Spirit. Christian ministry involves God working in us and through us to accomplish His purpose by His power. In order for this to occur we must develop faith that works rather than wilts in the fiery furnaces of adversity. I have found Second Corinthians to be incredibly insightful related to the progressive development of my faith. Paul faced relentless problems, pressure, and persecution while carrying out his labor for the Lord, and yet was able to triumph through trust. When we arrived in Macedonia, there was no rest for us. We faced conflict from every direction, with battles on the outside and fear on the inside. 2 Corinthians 7:5 Faith That Won't Fail In the Flames provides information, motivation, and application that will inspire and instruct those who are serious about sacrificially serving Christ. Each of the sixty-six daily devotionals provide insight into components of faith that you will require to successfully cope with the constantly changing circumstances involved in Christian work and warefare.
