Welcome from Brown Chapel/Avant, Shiloh
& Mt. Pleasant
Prayer: Rev. Pelton
Scripture: James 1:2-6 - My brothers and sisters, consider it nothing but joy when you fall into all sorts of trials, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect effect, so that you will be perfect and complete, not deficient in anything. But if anyone is deficient in wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without reprimand, and it will be given to him. But he must ask in faith without doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed around by the wind.
Subject: Wisdom For The Trials of Life
- Consider it all joy when we experience hardships.
- We have all lived with some sort of hardship and trials.
- We must learn to cope with the trials of life.
- When rather than if - there will always be trials in our human lives.
- Various way trials will appear.
- Where do the trials come from?
- From ourselves & our bad choices; from other people; from living in a fallen world; of course from Satan; & from God, Himself because is concerned with our maturity and not our happiness. There are certain things that can be learned through hardships which glorifies God.
- Exam the reason for going through trials...... we must prayerfully consider the source.
- Without the wisdom of God, it is impossible to understand God's purpose for us.
- We must ask for wisdom from God.
- Sharpening our faith by trials.
- God does not tempt to do evil but he will test our faith. James 1:13
- Trials come into our lives to purify us. Have we been tried in the fire and come through as pure gold? 1 Peter 1:7
- Trials come in our lives and we can learn how to respond correctly.
- We must be persuaded that God is in control of the timing & the intensity of the trial
- God has a specific purpose and goal in our lives.
- We must acknowledge that God wants his will done.
- God will walk with us when we've going through the storms of our lives.
