A Reminder From Our Savior

The testing and trials lead to spiritual growth and maturity

As King David states in the psalms you have tested my reins….  Remember that in both the old and new testaments it is noted many times that the Father tests us.  He tests all men. Yes, He does tests you.

Perhaps you are walking through one right now and not aware that this is in fact what’s transpiring.  We are tested by the Father to try our hearts and to see if our heart is pure towards Him.

When tests come, and they will come.  Remember the Savior has already given you the answer.  He is the answer.  He is the Way to pass all tests and the way to have victory through all tests and temptations.  Choose Christ.  Choose the Anointed One.  Choose Christ.  He’s the answer.  He is the answer in your trial.  He is the answer in your temptation.  He is the answer in your testing.

Choose Christ when standing face to face in this test.  Face it.  Stare it square in the eye, and if you literally have to speak it out of your mouth.  Then say it.  Look at that test.  Look at that trial, and pronounce your answer to this test: ….

“I Choose Christ”

Reference Scriptures To Meditate On:

Psalm 11:5
The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked….

Psalm 26:3
Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide. Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.  For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

Hebrews 4:12-13
For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

2 Corinthians 13:5
Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you fail the test?

Revelation 2:23
….I am the One who searches minds and hearts, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.

Psalm 17:3
You have tried my heart; You have visited me in the night. You have tested me and found no evil; I have resolved not to sin with my mouth.

1 Peter 1:7
so that the proven character of your faith—more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Rev 3:10
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Testing of Your Faith

My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing...  James 1:2-4
