We all have those moments when life turns into a war zone. You try to make peace with the enemy and it has no effect. Your losing hope, and praying in faith is easier said than done. What makes it worst is that the enemy sometimes are familiar faces, causing a deeper wound.
Crying and Isolation gives a temporary relief, but leads us into a deeper depression.
If we think about it, God knows the beginning and the end. He knew exactly what was going to happen.
The bible says in James 1:2-3
2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
If it is a test, that means God is evaluating how we handle every situation in our lives.
What are we committed to ?
Do we dwell on the situation, throw pity parties or better yet misery likes company.
God is saying Praise him, from the beginning not when We couldn't find the solution. Trust in him, believe in his promises, cry out to him not to yourself. Ask him to stand by your side. And he will deliver you from what ever your trial may be.
"If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, When men rose up against us, Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us; Then the waters would have overwhelmed us, The stream would have gone over our soul; Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul."
Psalm 124:2-5
