Tested Faith
„knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.”
Being tested does not automatically mean that God is against you. Sometimes, under pressure, it becomes clear what your faith truly rests upon. God uses difficult seasons not to break you, but to form perseverance in you. That sounds good, but no one enjoys it when faith is not just sung about but tested. The question is not whether you have faith language when everything is going smoothly. The question is whether you continue to trust when obedience yields nothing that you can immediately see. Tested faith is faith that does not immediately run away when things get tough.
Proclamation
The testing of my faith produces perseverance. I do not give up when my faith is tested. God forms steadfastness in me.
Prayer
Father, give me perseverance in testing. Do not let pressure make me bitter, but let it root me deeper in You. Form in me faith that stands firm. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
