Only a Tested Faith is True Faith

If we are not tested, we will not progress and overcome. If we do not trust the Lord in the face of trials and progress down the narrow road but we keep turning back toward the land of sin and darkness, our faith is proven to be a lie. Like Israel, if we have been delivered from Egypt, we do not turn our faces back to Egypt, we do not build a golden calf to worship, we do not grumble and complain seeking worldly comforts we once had, but we forge on and move forward on the difficult way through the wilderness to the promised land. God will provide manna from heaven and we must not fear the gigantic Nephilim more than we fear God. We struggle not against flesh and blood but against the powers of darkness.

thank you saviours servant for your wonderful word. i have a question. is drinking wine a sin to God? yes, he says be sober and never drunken but even one glass or one sip a sin?

[TheSavioursServant]

@711kw Well it depends what you are asking. If you are asking, "How much can I get away with?" then thats a problem. Perhaps you could ask yourself why you want to drink wine. Or if you are trying to justify something for yourself.

@Mckaule

Entrust yourself to the Lord and you will receive blessing after the darkest hour of your trial.

[HolySpiritdisciple]

Amen! Brother! LORD bless! Love you in Christ.

@Mckaule Praise the Lord.

@MessiahYeshuah refused to install illegal software, but that was the beginning, then they were angry that I told my co-workers about how I was healed by our LORD and how I accepted HIM. I told them at the end that if I have to choose I choose Jesus. I haven't lost my job. Good side of all this is that I had an opportunity to testify about Jesus to my director and his wife during that interrogation :D Thank YOU LORD JESUS !!!

[MessiahYeshuah]

@Mckaule May I ask what exactly happened with your job? Thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you for the message. How I needed to hear it.. Few days ago I had a test of : loosing my job or submitting to Jesus. Attacks from my relatives came with a big wind. Don't know how it will end, but I decided to follow Jesus. Spirit of pride lost most of it's ground during the test. Started feeling more love from God and at the same time for others.. Hallelujah ! Amen !
