Psalm 34: 19
Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
But the Lord delivers him out of them all.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
But the Lord delivers him out of them all.
Those who are cleansed with the blood
of Jesus are the righteous. And if we are made righteous by God through Jesus,
that does not necessarily mean that our life would be a bed of roses. In fact,
the Bible says that we would have to go through more problems and sufferings.
But there's a blessed promise that comes along with it! No matter how many
problems we go through, how many troubles and sufferings come upon us, the LORD
will faithfully deliver us from ALL OF THEM! God will never leave us nor
forsake us.
Our life in itself is a wonderful proof of GOD'S
faithfulness. When we just look back at our lives, there would've been times
when we thought that the problems that we were facing then, would consume us,
would torment us till the end of our lives. But hurray! We have come through it
all and in fact we are better off now than we were before. God promotes us
after we overcome each trouble and that's Why we can see that we are stronger,
more patient, more gentle and more loving with every passing test. Looking back
at How the LORD delivered us from the ten plagues in Egypt will give us
increased faith to face to Red sea without grumblings and to trust God for a
miraculous deliverance. If we are in a situation where we find ourselves caught
up in the problems of our lives, look back and count how faithful God had been
in the past. After some days, we will remember the current trouble we are going
through now and be thanking God for his wonderful deliverance!
Praise the LORD, for HE delivers the
righteous!! In John chapter 16 verse 33, the LORD Jesus gives us a
wonderful assurance, "In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have
overcome the world." We have
a God who has overcome the world and our troubles are no match to What HE went
through and so, let us be of good cheer for our God is our Faithful Deliverer!
