S2:E2: Count it all joy
Episode description
Are you facing a trial? Whether you’re in a trial now or tomorrow, what if I told you that God wants to trade your loss for wholeness? That what the enemy planned to make you empty, God intends to make you WHOLE, lacking nothing. God’s ultimate purpose through our trial is our wholeness. I share 3 ways we can pursue the wholeness God has promised us through trials:
1. Be honest with God and ourselves - "Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge." Ps. 62:8
2. Worship by giving God our broken spirit - "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise." Ps. 51:17
3. Give thanks to God - "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever." Ps. 107:1
Scripture: "Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."
James 1:2-4
