How To Handle Spiritual Trials

 

---

For You light my lamp; the LORD my God illumines my darkness.  For by You I can run upon a troop; and by my God I can leap over a wall.  As for God, His way is blameless; the word of the LORD is tried; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.  The God who girds me with strength and makes my way blameless?

Psalm 18:28-30, 32

Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

James 1:12

"I will go before you and make the rough places smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.  "I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden wealth of secret places, so that you may know that it is I, the LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.

Isaiah 45:2-3

"Though He slay me, I will hope in Him.  Nevertheless I will argue my ways before Him.  "This also will be my salvation, For a godless man may not come before His presence.

Job 13:15-16

Deliver me from the mire and do not let me sink; may I be delivered from my foes and from the deep waters.  May the flood of water not overflow me nor the deep swallow me up, nor the pit shut its mouth on me.  Answer me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; according to the greatness of Your compassion, turn to me, and do not hide Your face from Your servant, for I am in distress; answer me quickly.  Oh draw near to my soul and redeem it; ransom me because of my enemies!

Psalm 69:14-18
