IT’LL SURELY PASS (That Trouble Is For A Moment)

TO THE BIBLE:

2 Corinthians 4:17 AMPC

“For our light, momentary affliction (this slight distress of the passing hour) is ever more and more abundantly preparing and producing and achieving for us an everlasting weight of glory [beyond all measure, excessively surpassing all comparisons and all calculations, a vast and transcendent glory and blessedness never to cease!]”

LET’S TALK

In your life as a Christian, tough times may come to you in form of trials, temptations, and persecution. But at such times, you should hold on and don’t give up, because they only came to pass. Remember Jesus’ words to the soldiers who came to arrest Him at Gethsemane; He said, “I was with you in the Temple every day, and you did not try to arrest me. But this is your hour to act, when the power of darkness rules” (Luke 22:53 GNB). It was just for a moment. When it was over, the glorified Son of God was manifested. Hallelujah!

So, you may go through difficulties and times of darkness, but the Bible says count it all joy when you go through diverse tests, knowing that the trial of your faith works patience (James 1:2); it’ll turn out for your good.

Some things can happen to you even though you’re a Christian, but it doesn’t change who you are; you’re still a victor! The circumstances of your life don’t, and shouldn’t, describe or dictate the quality of your personality.

Jesus said, “In your patience possess ye your souls” (Luke 21:19 KJV). Remain confident in God’s Word, no matter what’s happening to you, or around you. Friends and neighbours may despise and ostracise you; it makes no difference. The greater One lives in you, and that’s what counts.

That trouble is for a moment! The adversity is for a moment; it came to pass! Whatever pressures you’re facing right now are all light afflictions; they’ll produce for you a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory as you keep your focus on the Word.

GO DEEPER

Isaiah 43:2; John 16:33; 2 Peter 1:19

PRAY

Dear Father, thank you for the comfort of your Word. I declare that all things work together for my good always, and I’m triumphant today by the Word, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Testimony Of How I Got Born Again. REV TOM AMENKHIENAN. Pastor Chris Led Me To Salvation.

JESUS LOVES ME! HE HAD MY LIFE ALL PLANNED OUT. I was born into a Roman Catholic family setting, with a strong influence of the Roman Catholic culture running through the entire family because my maternal Grandparents had been very committed and recognized leaders in the Roman Catholic Church. I was baptized and confirmed at an early age and soon enlisted as an Altar Boy (Mass Server). At this early age, the Priests and Reverend Fathers in charge of our local assembly (mostly foreigners, especially from Ireland), deliberately sought to groom, tailor and mentor me in the direction of becoming a Roman Catholic Priest, encouraging me to attend the Seminary once I came of age. I grew up with this background and was indoctrinated in it until I had my first encounter with another Christian Group in my Secondary School days when a group from the Scripture Union organized a fellowship in our school and preached the gospel to me. I attended a few of their fellowship meetings and tried to ...

Pastor Biodun Lawal tells a story.

JESUS CALLED ME! My name is Pastor Biodun Lawal. I am the zonal pastor of Christ Embassy Accra, Ghana and I want to thank our man of God, our pastor, our coach and our father for the opportunity to share my salvation testimony with you. I title it Jesus Called Me. I was born and raised up in a Muslim house, my parents were Muslims. I was trained as a kid to go to Quranic School and on how to lead prayers in the mosque as well. I grew up as a Muslim learning the things that a young Muslim should do. As at that time, my parents had a lot of Christian friends and at the age of five my parents allow me to follow their friends children to church(Sunday school) and that was my first encounter with Christianity. All the things that we were taught at the Sunday school didn’t make sense to me then because I only followed the children to go and play. Then suddenly, my parents stopped me from attending the Sunday school because they had wanted me to focus on their religion which is Islam. T...
