THE DAYS OF ADVERSITY 1

THE DAYS OF ADVERSITY 1
I start quoting Roy T. Bennett: “Challenges and adversity are meant to help you know who you are. Storms hit your weakness but unlock your true strength”. Adversity is the state of adverse condition. It is a state of misfortune. It is unfavorable. The days of adversity either breaks or make a man. Many have been conquered in their days of adversity. Many have been knocked down in their days of adversity. The days of adversity shows how strong you are. It shows how resilience you are. Resilience is the mental ability to recover quickly from depression, misfortune, challenges, storms, difficulties, adversity. Life is no bed of roses. Life is full of challenges, difficulties, adversity, storms, depression, and oppression. Anyone expecting a life full of pleasant situations, untroubled existence is deceiving himself. But we are rest assured and have peace because CHRIST said in John 16 vs. 33: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer I have overcome the world. We are comforted by CHRIST in tribulations, adversity, storms, challenges, depression if only we hope and depend on him. 2 Corinthians 1 vs. 4: Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of GOD.

              Ecclesiastes 7 vs. 14: In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider GOD also hath set the one over against the other to the end that men should find nothing after him. This verse shows nothing is certain in life. Whether you are good or bad the days of adversity await you; but be rest assured you can be more than a conqueror through JESUS CHRIST our LORD because, He overcame the world. Facing the days of adversity; with GOD by your side make you unmovable and more than a conqueror; facing the days of adversity without GOD by your side make the adversity move you and defeat you. The Psalmist says in Psalms 16 vs. 8: I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. David was greatly distressed when the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved; when the Amalekites took their people captive. He took himself up and encouraged himself in the LORD his GOD that’s Resilience. He recovered quickly from the distress, cry, depression and enquired from the LORD. 1 Samuel 30 vs. 8: And David enquired at the LORD, saying, shall I pursue after this troop? Shall I overtake them? Shall I overtake them? And he answered him, pursue; for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all. That situation, adversity, challenges of yours putting you off and disturbing you won’t let go easily, unless you put yourself together, encourage yourself in the LORD and enquire from GOD just like David did. It is well with us…..

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED.

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED To be faithful is to be reliable, worthy of trust and consistent with reality. A faithful man pledges and might later be unfaithful. For instance, couples make vows at the altar during their wedding, but these vows don’t stop the man or woman from breaking promises and vow. A married man finds himself cheating outside marriage despite all vows made during his wedding, because he is not faithful. You find cheating outside marriage is a common thing now, which shouldn’t be. Husbands drink from your own well, stick to her and figure out things by praying together. Wives drink from your own well, stick to him no matter what he has done. A man is not the faithful who had promised, because men fails and break their promise. Only GOD is the faithful who had promised. The bible said cursed be he that put his trust in the arm of flesh. The arm of flesh will surely fail. You been promised something by your uncle or aunt doesn’t guarantee you will be given the th...
