All this has come upon us; but we have not forgotten You, nor have we dealt falsely with Your covenant.  Psalm 44.17

In the tribulations that we face in the world, there are many that would be good if they did not exist. However, besides serving as lessons so that we may avoid greater tribulations, some will even help us to love God even more. Therefore, do not be upset if some unpleasing situations happen to you. Even if all may go wrong, remember that the Lord is in control and He will never forsake you.

In fact, all things cooperate for the good of those who love God (Rm 8.28), and keep His commandments. It is good to know what are your rights in Christ and always be in communion with Him, so that you may not do the devil’s will. Be watchful, because Satan has the greater purpose of driving you away from the hands of the Most High, so that you may not be a threat to his dirty plans any longer.

Do not fear when you go through difficult situations. Since we live in midst of people that do not know God’s love, it is evident that the devil will use them to make you suffer and try to draw you away from our beloved Lord. Now, even though your situation may be difficult, seek to see the Father’s face, meditating on the Word, so that you may get stronger.

It is important never to forget the Most High. He will at the right moment show the exit to any problem. After all, besides being God, He is also Father and Friend. Many are misled by the lies of the enemy, and afterward, they realize that their attitudes were the cause of their sufferings. Do not be defeated by any kind of temptation.

In all circumstances, do not deny the Word. On the contrary, you will have acted falsely with the Covenant that was established between the Lord and humanity. In the New Testament Covenant, there is all that is necessary for you to defeat trials at all times. Therefore, our God cannot be stopped. He will operate whatever He has promised. Be faithful until death, and He will crown you with life.

We can be certain that the Most High watches over our lives, and He does not leave us for even a minute. Whenever temptation goes beyond our strength, He will drive it away from us. There will never be a temptation that is stronger than what we can support. Do not desire to return to your ancient habits, because if you do so, it will be the end of your life. The enemy has prepared sufferings seven times stronger for you.

As for the temptations that are allowed by the Lord, be in complete peace, for He will give you the wait out. You only need to trust in Him. God is a faithful Fulfiller of His promises, therefore He will not be guilty for whatever happens to you. On the contrary, He will visit you and deliver you from all evil.

In Christ, with love,
