The Purpose In Trials
James 1:2-4 tells us that the trying of a person’s faith, (especially by someone who is over and against them) is a necessary affliction to achieve and experience
"The Perfect Work of Patience”. This "Patience" should be one of our most important goals and greatest achievements to strive for, if not only for our own Peace but for the Peace of others. Due to the perspective shift that increasingly learned patience creates, it enables us to take our focus away from our selfish needs and feelings and keep our focus on “The Mind of Christ” which is leading us to what’s really important outside ourselves. Unfortunately this is a necessary, but positive life-changing goal only to be attained or created through the endurance of daily trials, unfair experiences, and life’s basic inconveniences that should cause us to be more reliant on our Faith while bringing us closer into relationship with God. Now just a warning, if your stubborn and hard-headed like me, buckle up buttercup your road may contain just a few more bumps than others! But the most important thing to remember is to NEVER give up!!!
To quote Paul, “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do." Romans 7:15
These were his struggles as well, so you know we're in good company! You know no matter what you endure, it’s always worth it when it comes from a promise of God. I’ll always agree to the fact that no matter what you're made to endure, it’ll always be the necessary price to pay for the enlightenment of God’s wisdom for which you're seeking to benefit your life, possibly even at that very point in time, and you'll usually receive it on the other side of your “temporary trial”. BUT only if you don't lose Faith, stay focused, and never quit! All of the other various personal experiences that we learn and grow from while going through these "Trials and Tribulations" are contributing to the perfecting of our character and the development of our spiritual maturity, leading us to the goal of always being able to remain steadfast under trial. These trials we experience with God are an incredible blessing, and always worth the blood, sweat, and tears that we might have to walk through.☝️😏
"The means by which the wisdom is obtained is always eclipsed and overcome by the potential wisdom that is gained!!!" 👊❤️🔥🔥🎚️
Now For The Good News…
"Relax, You'll NEVER have to go through it alone!"
God’s promise is that: “He’ll Never Leave You or Forsake You”
So now through your relationship with the Holy Spirit to help guide you and give you understanding in these times, it’s just up to your Faith and Trusting God and His Promises that can enable you to experience "The Peace of God" that leads you straight to that “Perfect Work of Patience” making you "Whole and Complete, Lacking Nothing."
So how are we whole and complete,lacking nothing?
When we're lead to experience the revelation of “God’s Perfect Peace”, the byproduct of this "Peace" is the key that enables you to experience “The Perfect Work of Patience”. See, "God's Peace" is the ONLY KEY that unlocks the possibility of us experiencing the boundless patience of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, which is only made possible to us through our relationship with the Holy Spirit.
Wasted Trials
It’s a shame that sooooo many miss the Blessing of their Trials because they’re too distracted by their circumstances to NEVER stop complaining! By beginning to change your way of thinking from “Victim” to “Overcomer in Christ”, you’ll start seeing things from a different perspective and your focus will slowly begin to shift to overcomer and problem solver, as opposed to the exaggerating, and complaining guy discussing the size of his problems and not the size of his God who is the problem solver.
I can speak from my own personal experience because I’ve been that guy a few times myself.
If we’re all gonna be real I think we can all admit we’ve been there at one time or another, ALL OF US! AND IT’S OK! Nobody’s perfect, we’re all just works in progress…It’s amazing how many lives can be strengthened and blessed through the struggle with just a simple perspective shift and Faith in Jesus!
He's ALWAYS with you, so you’re NEVER ALONE!!!🫵😉🎚️
🙌🎚️🙌THERE’S ALWAYS HOPE IN JESUS🙌🙏🙌
🔥🔥🔥God Bless❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
And if you ask me...
(because I have plenty of embarrassingly extensive knowledge on the subject of making and repeating the same mistakes over and over again myself, that might actually qualify me as an authority) 🤫 🎚️✋🤔
"You can NEVER put a price on ANY Wisdom that one receives! From the wisdom that is gained through your lowest points in life all the way up to your highest triumphs, please believe that nothing is ever wasted!" As a matter of fact there's way more wisdom in the valley than on the mountain top!!! ❤️🔥🙏 We all need to turn this thinking around about being "down in the valley", and embrace this education that comes from the life we spend in the valley that's responsible for teaching us how the world really works. AND use this power for good, and not hustling, you know who you are...and I'm not judging because I grew up in Jersey and NY so I know what time it is🫵🤫 I've been there too, in "those" situations that looked like I had NO OUTS! So I completely understand!👊😏 You'll learn quick when you're on your own that TV is just a fantasy land to keep you asleep and programmed by those in power whose only objective is to exploit you through their own personal adgendas. This is the advantage of growing up "on the struggle", the wisdom I've obtained having to survive the Hell I grew up in turned out to be an incredible advantage, and I thank God for it now (finally) and I wouldn't have it any other way! Now I'm not saying I didn't do my fair share of complaining about my life at times, I'm human, but who do you know that grew up in a "hell-like" environment that didn't! You can't stay in that victim mindset, it's not how you start it's how you finish! "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!" I tattooed it on my left forearm as a permanent reminder, because sometimes I can often forget. We're not "victims", we're survivors and overcomers, if we weren't we wouldn't be here! Now give yourself and God a praise!!! Now it's time to use what we've learned in Hell for the Glory of God's Kingdom! Let's raise up all those that are where we were at one time and raise up an army of "exceptionally street educated survivors of life" to do God's work! You know the kind, the ones with that heart that only a survivor can relate to, you know the one? The one that would NEVER treat anyone like you were treated, a noble heart boiling over with empathy, compassion, loyalty, and dedicated to the Love of God!?!?!?🔥❤️🔥God Bless❤️🔥🔥
Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing.” James 1:2-4 AMP
I'm dedicating this to my best friend and brother Leon Dorsey, and his grandmother Ms. Pearle who was my incredible spiritual mother. I'm not sure I've been so connected to two people in my life, but I'll be forever grateful that I've had the privilege to call them family for more than 20yrs. God Bless you Leon, and God Bless you Ms Pearle up in heaven!
