Satan can’t do anything to you that was not passed by God first.
For us, this means that God knows all about what’s going on in our life. Even in that, God our Father placed limits on what he could and couldn’t do. I want to give you a few things to remember when you are in that storm, some things that have helped me:ĭo you remember the beginning of the book of Job? Satan had to be granted access to Job. Rejoice? When I have lost all hope that things will get better and my desire to live. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”(TNIV) Rejoice? How could he say to rejoice when you need money but you don’t know where it is coming from? Rejoice? Really?! When I just lost my job and I need to feed my family. In the first chapter of the book of James, he opens by saying, ” Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. He says something that I never quite understood until recently. I want to point you to James, brother of Jesus. I have been there…in fact I am there right now! I want to leave my home but I realize that I cannot leave but will have to wait until the storm is over. What do you do when you find yourself in a storm waiting for it to end? What can you do when you have been hurt so badly that all you can think about is how bad you hurt? You just want the storm to be over so that you can move on. There is a thunderstorm occurring outside.
