Beloved, don't be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you. But because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy. 1 Peter 4:12-14 WEB.I have a testimony I occasionally share where the Lord gave me a horrible job in a brass polishing plant. I started out sweeping the floor earning around the minimum wage in a drug-filled environment. Within a year, I was the manager. A mini-revival broke out, and everyone who worked there was saved. When I went to church, I brought an entire row of guests. The pastor loved me. If I had not lost my previous job, I would not have this testimony.
Unless a test comes, there is no testimony. Having a testimony, witness, a matter of fact are things that come from experiencing the power of God in your life during the hard times. These are the things you can stand on when the going gets tough. Something that you hear from others helps, but the things you have lived are your testimony and help you and others.
When you look back at what Jesus has already brought you through, you know that He will get you through this as well. Just as David killed the lion, the bear, and was now ready for Goliath, the Lord will turn your test into a testimony. The things that you currently suffer will work out for good in due time.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I know that You are with me and will bring me through whatever I face today. I pray that You have Your way in my life and draw my heart to You. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!Note: Happy Sunday :)! For those who would like to join us, we will be hosting our RHM Live Online church service.
