Tried And Tested
Saturday, April 22
And the satraps, administrators, governors, and the king’s counselors gathered together, and they saw these men on whose bodies the fire had no power; the hair of their head was not singed nor were their garments affected, and the smell of fire was not on them.
Daniel 3:27
Devotion
The life of a believer is one that does not reflect the old nature. Our new identity in Jesus gives us a new outlook, we don’t look like what we’ve been through. Even if you’ve been through a fiery trial, you shouldn’t smell like it.
Never give a chance to discouragement and never give up. Instead, rejoice and praise the Lord because He counts you worthy. It is through our suffering that God reveals Himself to us, enabling our faith to grow even stronger.
It’s time for us to embrace who we are in Christ and embrace the abundant life He gives us. It’s time to say no to self-pity and yes to the victory that waits on the other side of not giving up!
Today's Prayer
Dear God,
Thank you for being with me in the good times and the bad. Thank you for never giving up on me even when I feel like giving up. I know that you're with me, even in the fire you'll always be with me.
Give me the strength to endure and help me to embrace your presence always. Amen!
