Finding Strength in God’s Promises Amidst Life’s Trials

Will there be repentance on judgment day?

Will the mercy of the Lord ends when Christ returns?

These are tough questions to think about!

The Psalmist also asked similar questions when he was in distress.

The Psalmist was so troubled that he could not speak.

The enemy bombarded his mind with negative thoughts that God had forgotten him.

Then, he remembered the goodness of God in the past and he considered the days of old.

Suddenly, he remembered a song of deliverance and meditated on it.

He allowed the song to encourage his spirit and he lifted up his voice in praise to God.

Before you give up on God, remember His mighty works and the wonderful things that He has done for you in the past.

If the Lord has done it before, He certainly will do it again.

Encouraging yourself in the Lord

Meditate on the Word of God and reflect on His everlasting grace and mercy to mankind.

Trust in the promises of God because He promised that He will always be kind to you.

Always remember that in spite of the drought, rain, storm, inflations or depression you will be like a green olive tree in the house of the Lord (Psalms 52:8).

Never forget that God’s kindness and promises remain steadfast despite life’s challenges.

The Lord is compassionate, slow to anger, patience and has no desire that anyone should perish but wants everyone to repent (2 Peter 3: 9).

Therefore, you can trust in the mercy and compassion of God.

Do you trust in God’s mercy?

  1. This is an inspiring post. I can personally relate to the sub heading “Encouraging Yourself in the Lord.”

    Most often we look to others for encouragement. However, there are some challenges that can stiffel even the wisest of Believers. When such challenges arise, the Holy Spirit within us will call to our memory all the precious promises promises of God, whereby we can encourage ourselves to trust that God promised to be with is. And if God is with us, who or what can stand against us?

    Thanks for this inspiring post Beverly. May God continue to bless the Oil and the Wine.

    • Yes, this is so true. When we are in trouble we sometimes forget the good things that God has done for us. It is important that we remind ourselves that if God has done it before he will do it again. God bless you and have a great day.
