Tried with Fire

“That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ” 1 Peter 1:7.

The enemy may be bringing everything he has against you. Hurt after hurt. Calamity after calamity. Distress after distress. Accusation after accusation. And while it feels as though you are not going to make it, your faith will. Your faith will see you through every single trial. You may feel the effects of the fire right now, and the heaviness may be weighing on you, but God will make sure your faith will remain intact. Your faith is indeed more precious than gold.

Just when you think you’re done and can’t take anymore, Jesus shows up in the fire. He is a very present help in time of trouble. He will fight for you. When He said He will never leave you nor forsake you, He meant it. When He said, He is your Shield and your Defense, He meant it. When He said that no weapon formed against you would prosper, He meant it. God hasn’t abandoned you, and He has not left your side. He is right there to help your faith remain.

Understand that every Word of God strengthens your faith, so don’t close your Bible now. Hide it in your heart and declare it from your mouth. Speak to your situation as you stand still and see the salvation of the Lord!

Prayer: Father God, I cry out to you. You are my God and there is none else. Thank you for being my impenetrable Shield. I place my total trust in you. You are with me to help me come through gloriously. Thank you that your word fights for me. I hide it in my heart and declare it from my mouth. In Jesus name, Amen.

  4. It been daunting and I was feeling what is the since of praying. Why all this and still the same stuff different day. It more than I can handle. Real Talk. But as I read the word (BIBLE), begun to sing gospel songs, listen to sermons and read this devotional it was the fire that sparked my faith once again.

    It is NOT over until the Lord God Almighty says so. I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. Weeping my endure at night but joy comes in the morning. I am not alone. This battle is not mine but the Lords. They may come against me one way but flee seven ways.

  5. AmenπŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ I know he is in the fire with me! I can’t feel him as close as I once did! But I know that he is still God! He is still in control. Not one ounce of my pain goes unnoticed because he is merciful and kind and full of compassion. He loves me and has a good plan and purpose for all that we have gone through.

I am now dealing with the COVID virus and but devil you can’t have my faith my family or anything else. I will stand in the name of Jesus.

  9. This is true, just went u truly think u cannot take it anymore and cry for help within hours He can make u feel better true story. He does give a way out wen temptation

  10. Wow!!! What a word!!
    I’ve been tested, persecuted and tried with fire, but GOD’ Word remains steadfast above it all. It’s unbearable at time, but I constantly have to remind myself that the battle is the Lord’s, and that GOD didn’t call me to bear it alone, but to trust in Him and take it to Him in prayer.

    Right believing leads to right living. I declare that I will always let the word of GOD be the final authority in any and all situations in my life. Unlike Job, I have a mediator, JESUS CHRIST, whose sacrifice paid the price for my body, mind and soul. I was bought with a price and only GOD’s word carries authority over me. My speech and beliefs have to be in line with GOD’s word.

    Thank you Father for your love, grace, mercy and kindness. Thank you for never leaving me or forsaking me. Thank you for my breakthroughs. Thank you for making me MORE THAN A CONQUEROR. In JESUS’ mighty name AMEN πŸ™ŒπŸ’―πŸ’ͺπŸ™πŸ˜Š
