1 Peter 1:6, 7 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith–of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire–may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

When we go through trials and tribulations so many people want to say, “God is testing us.” We know that not to be true because in James 1:13 it says, When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone. Another word for tempted is tested or tried.

We may not be tested by God but, our faith is being tested by the circumstances God allows. Our faith is separate from us. Just like weights test our strength, circumstances and situations test our faith.

Anytime we have to endure something, know that our faith is being tested. Pass the test by knowing and utilizing the things that have already been provided for us through Jesus Christ. Receive the fact that through Jesus Christ, God always causes us to triumph.

 

Be Blessed!
