In Times of Suffering

27 July 2026

During suffering we tend to ask many questions 😢

Are you sure God is your Rock? Are you sure you are building your life on the Rock, or could it be that you think you are...?

The storms came and the house built on the rock stood and the house on the sand collapsed. When Christians face hardships, we tend to ask questions. Especially when the season of suffering seems to have no expiry date. Christians start to wonder if God exists, or even cares. Many fall, renounce God, feel it is futile to believe and become bitter. Self-reliance kicks in and they strike life out on their own.🥹

But what does the Word say?

The righteous shall live by faith. Rom 1:17

What does this even mean?

Especially when faced with hardship?

First: You need to be a part of God’s household, His family! How do you become part of His family? You need to be born again. Jesus is the ONLY way to the Father. No one can come to the Father, except through Jesus.

Second: Now that you are part of His family, His inheritance, promises, protection, provision and life is available to you.

Third: Your position has changed. You are now brought over from darkness into light. Col 1:13-14. You changed Kingdoms!!

                     To

Fourth: Now the Word, who is Jesus Christ, is alive to you, in you and for you. You may declare it, believe it and trust in it. You can live by faith and not by sight. His Word never returns void, Is 55.

🛐 ARE YOU READY TO PRAY HIS WORDS OVER YOUR SITUATION?

Let us declare Psalm 18:1-3

I love you Lord

You are my strength

The Lord is my rock, my fortress

My savior;

My God is my rock, in Whom I find protection.

He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.

I called on the Lord, Who is worthy of praise, and He saved me from my enemies.
