Have u ever wonder.. if u were to lose everything in ur life.
What would happen..?
Apparently i thought about if before
what if 1 day my family isn't around anymore
and all my friend rejected me
would i continue worshipping and praising the lord our god ?
Let me tell u of 1 great man that really inspired me
his name JOB. Many people have heard of this wonderful man. But for those who haven. I will do a little intro
Job is a Mighty Man of God The Lord trusted him
and he had the favor of the lord upon him
He was the richest man in the world at his time..
So 1 simple day the angel came to the lord. And satan came with them..
God ask satan have you considered my servant Job?
There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright
a man who fears God and shuns evil.
Satan replied: Does Job fear God for nothing satan .
Have you not put a hedge around his household and everything that he has?
You have blessed him with everything.
But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has surely he will curse u to ur face
The Lord said to satan very well every he has is in ur hands but do not lay a finger on him
ill make short..
So Satan took everything away from Job from his riches to his children leaving nothing behind expect for his wife..
when the last angels came and tell him that his kids had pass away.
little did u expect. He shaved his head and tore his robe, fell to the ground and said
Naked I came from my mother's womb and naked i will depart The Lord gave and the Lord has taken
May the name of the Lord be Praise.so i tell myself even if i have lose everything i will still praise and glorify the LORD .Everything i have now he has gave.I declare if he wants to take it away so be it. Blessed is the name of the LORD! Hallelujah!You can read this story in job chp 1
At Job 4: 2-5
Job was very discouraged
and said very discouraging words
the Eliphaz said this to him
verse3: Think how you have instructed many.Think how you have strengthened feeble hands.Verse4: Your words have supported those who stumbled; you have strengthened faltering knees.Verse5: But now trouble comes to you,and you are discourage;it strikes you, and u are dismayed.Verse6: should not your piety be your confidence& your blameless ways your hope..wad this really spoke to me was
everything was so great when ur fire was burning everything was goin very wellBut after testing came u are discourage wad little faith is thisLet ur fire be ur light. Let the love of ur God be the strength u needSo do not be discouraged when testing comesbut instead have faith and trust in the LORDJust rmb after winter there is always spring and summerAfter dark nights. Day will be next to light up ur dayHave persistance in yourself & the LordAfter testing u will grow even stronger.:D so i hope this is encouraging to people. :D
