God Tests Us To Prove Us!












WHY GOD WHY?

Many ask, "Why is God allowing all of this [COVID-19 and its resultant death and suffering] to happen?' 

The truth is, everything that has been happening in the four corners of the earth was already prophecied in the Bible. 


This is the inevitable fulfillment of Scripture. These are the signs that proceed the return of the Lord Jesus.


God has always allowed humanity to go through difficult times, but the question is, why? We need to remember, when everything is going well, when the wind is at our back, our tendency is to relax and rely on our own strength. 


Many imagine that they are self sufficient, they forget about God and even to deride Him, but moment like these show us that we are nothing.


In the blink of an eye, an invisible enemy [(i.e.) COVID-19] can appear to take the lives of thousands, with no regard for social class, race or status. 


Where are the powerful ones now? 


Their power and money can do nothing to stop this virus from spreading.


In times like these, we see how just how fragile and insignificant we really are. 


Only in times like these do we stop to reflect and bow before the one true God, only in the storms of life, in the toughtest of times, is when people humble themselves before the Most High and seek His help.


The writer of Psalm says, "My suffering was good for me, for it taught me to pay attention to your decrees." (Psa 119:71). Going through deserts teaches us much more than the comforts of the green pastures. How many people who have given up on praying, but have now started to pray again. How many have been spiritually lazy, but are now being shaken awake to restore the relationship with God. 


How many that have drifted away but have come back to God in this crisis.


GOD DOESN'T ALWAYS CHANGE OUR SITUATION, BUT HE USES THE SITUATION TO CHANGE US. 


God is using this time to test the faith of those who serve Him. 


Many are discovering that they have spent their entire life building their houses on the sand.
Now when the supernatural faith is needed, they have collapsed after years of not practicing what they were taught.
One thing is certain, whoever builds their lives on the Rock, will go through storms yet will remain ushaken.
Storms come to everyone, but only those who hear and practice the Word remain. God won't keep us from being thrown in to a lion's den, but He will close the mouths of the lions.
God won't keep us from being thrown in to a fiery furnace, but He will ensure that not even a single hair of our head is burned. 


LET'S HAVE THIS FAITH, AS WE GO THROUGH THESE TIMES AND IN THE END WE WILL COME OUT STRONGER AND FIT AND RICH ENOUGH FOR US TO ENJOY OUR ETERNITY AHEAD TO BE PROSPEROUS IN HIS PRESENCE! 


"For all these things like storms, trials, tribulations, natural calamities, famines, diseases, sicknesses, viral contagion like COVID-19 and the like that interrupts our regular routines are a blessing from God to make us ready not just for now but for eternity ahead for which we are made and given a Divine call to respond and therefore enjoy God for the rest of our lives here and also in the eternal life to come. We are not just born to live, but born again to live with God! The only certainity is the certainity of a constant change from the now onwards to reach and remain in the unchangeable eterntiy. Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel 



Much Blessings...
