All things are possible with God (Matthew 19:26). You are the head and not the tail, above and not beneath (Deuteronomy 28:13). You are blessed in the city and blessed in the field (Deuteronomy 28:3). Your situation is not a surprise to God. He is waiting on you to see your worth.
There is nothing too hard for God (Jeremiah 32:17). God saw your circumstance before you did (Psalm 138:6). God knew those storms were coming, but He will redeem you. He was trying to see how you were going to respond. The battle was sent to mature you and shed some dead weight.
There is nothing too hard for God. There is nothing that can separate you from the love of God (Romans 8:35-39). God is your strength (Psalm 46:1) He is your refuge in a time of storm.
Some would ask the question “God why must we go through things?” Others would arrogantly say to God, if you are so Supreme why must I suffer”? I would rather understand how good God is for getting me through my struggles. For we are to set our hopes on the eternal reward (2 Corinthians 4:18).
It is this perspective that changes everything. It hurts to go through. Though He slay me I will trust Him (Job 13:15). The slaying is for His glory. We would not depend on God. We would lean on our own strengths. The storms in our lives are temporary.
I stand on my faith that tells me from experience I can make it through anything. God is the fortress that helps to slay every trial. I can stand in a courtroom with no lawyer and prevail over my enemy because He is a waymaker (Isaiah 43:16).
I can have peace because He is a peacemaker (Matthew 5:40). I can trust His promises because He is a promise keeper (2 Corinthians 1:20). This is what tells me that I can make it through anything.
It might look like you can’t make it, but you will. Troubling times can make you doubt God, but dig deep and know He is a God you can trust. The bigger the storm the greater the blessing on the other side.
God is bigger than the troubles you face. You can make it through anything because with God all things are possible.
