Pass The Test

Philippians 4:⁶ “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”

There is no promotion without a test. You may be going through your test right now. You are being ignored, and things appear not to be working. Stay the course because at the end of it is your promotion. Yes, it is tough. Remember, God will not put upon you more than you can bear. I do not know if you have ever done this, but I have said to God at some point, “Lord, You think I can actually bear this? I cannot. I do not know why You think I can, but I cannot. This is too much for one person.” But listen, God trusts you more than you trust yourself. He trusts you with the pain because He knows the glory that is coming your way. Amen. Therefore, you can keep pushing and keep praying because you know that God Sees. God Knows. God Rewards, All Things Are Working For Your Good, and The Process Of Pain Produces Promotion.

The fourth thing is that Every Problem Has An Expiry Date. Every single problem has an expiry date. By the time a problem starts, the date it will pass has been set. The date sometimes is prolonged by people’s decisions or shortened also by people’s decisions. But there is a set date.  If the problem has an expiry date, all you need to do is make sure you don’t expire before the problem. If you do not expire before the problem, you will be fine, because the problem will come and go. Everything comes to pass so do not give up. I know a couple of people who have been through or are going through a lot. And in the process of going through a lot, guess what? They developed different health conditions.

And when what they were going through expired, they were left with a health condition to manage for the rest of their lives. Someone I know went through a lot for her children. Now, her children are doing well, but she has high blood pressure to deal with. Her children’s money goes to her health. The truth is the problem will expire. It may look like it will last forever, but nothing lasts forever. You will overcome trouble, no matter how the storm is, you will not be buried. It may feel like the world has come to an end. Listen, it has not come to an end.

The problem will pass away. I pray that you will not expire before the problem passes, and you will not expire with the problem in Jesus Name. If you know that the problem will expire, why would you allow yourself to be subject to such battering by the enemy? When God has said to you, do not worry, just pray. Why then would you cripple yourself with anxiety and worry?

Prayer: Father, in the Name of Jesus, I will not expire with the challenges of life. Instead, they will expire and I will be lifted and promoted, in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen!
