THE FURNACE!
Nothing stretches us to strengthen us like pressure. You won't burn in that fire of affliction, but you are definitely being refined, re-fired and redefined for greater glory.
Now, your spiritual disposition must be trained to fall in line with the scriptures. You are fretting and so wavering because of your pain and struggle. Don't do that, such people can not receive anything they want or ask for from the Lord. James 1:5-8. It takes praying in confident faith to get answers.
Just when you thought you had done all your praying, studying and all, God allows and releases more pressure to keep you inspired and challenged for greater accomplishment to glorify Him! God is not against you, but for you even if you're in the pit, furnace or in bondage right now. Tough tests and examinations at school could be very stressful though they are necessary pathways to promotion.
Isaiah 48:10.
See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
You must train yourself by constantly, persistently meditating on God's Word in prayer and declaration, irrespective of the opposing, negative circumstances. Add fasting because you're not going to leave any stone unturned. Jesus Christ said that stubborn devils and situations could be tamed, subdued and conquered by faith in God, prayer and fasting.
Matthew 17.21.
However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."
You are getting better and closer to your glorious destiny. Many people throw in the towel and give up just before the breakthrough, because it's darkest when it's closest to dawn. And the enemy keeps screaming at us, saying, "There's no way"! But, rebuke him and say, ' It is written, Jesus Christ is the way, and I'm going ALL the way! And he will flee from you. Don't ever consider giving up. A miracle is just around the corner. Hallelujah!
1Peter 5:10.
....so after you have suffered a little while, God will restore, support, strengthen and bless you, and He will place you on a firm foundation.
