WORLD OF TRIBULATIONS Tuesday
September 22, 2015
Text: John 16:33b Memory
verse: v 33b
Jesus
summarized all He had told His disciples that night, tying together themes from
14:27 – 29; 16:1 – 4, 9 – 11. With these words He told them to take courage. In
spite of the inevitable struggles they would face, they would not be alone.
Jesus does not abandon us to our struggles either. If we remember that the
ultimate victory has already been won, we can claim the peace of Christ in the
most troublesome times.
Our
world is world of tribulations especially against our faith. We face
persecution from different angles. However, these should not discourage us. We
should look up to Jesus for strength. We shouldn’t expect to be loved by the
world. They didn’t love Jesus so they won’t love us.
Food for Thought: Romans 8:37 – Yet in all these things we are more
than conquerors through Him who loved us.
Prayer: Lord, I depend on you. Make me victorious over all
tribulations of life
