PICK UP YOUR WEAPONS AND FIGHT...AS THE WEAKER VESSEL

When you’re going through a circumstance or situation where your faith is being tested you always want to know when it’s going to end. Why am I going through this? What is the Lord trying to show me? He is God. He is your creator. He is the one with the plan. This is the fear of the Lord. You’re in his hands. Of Course, there are vulnerabilities, but as his church, we must stand as the weaker vessel.
1 Peter 3:7
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
So, this is a spiritual life, a spiritual walk with the Lord and spiritually he is the Bridegroom. With him as the head we must trust him to cover his Bride and lead her in the right direction. Give the Lord your weakness, so that his strength will be made perfect in the midst of it. With each trial you encounter, there is a revelation of Jesus Christ. You learn his names. You learn that he is a Redeemer, a Father. He is a Healer. He is a Refuge. You can always go to him. He is a Provider. He is a Light in the midst of darkness. When you allow the Potter to shape you on that potter’s wheel it hurts and is often very uncomfortable. He teaches you discipline, the fear of the Lord, with that fear you learn to trust.
Rom 5:1-5
Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we have access by faith into grace wherein we stand and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the Love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
The word to focus on in the mentioned scripture is experience. Through the experience is the birth of hope and the love of Christ is strengthened that much more within you. To endure to the end, you must love Jesus Christ. You must love being his Servant. You must desire to be in unity with him by his Spirit. Besides the Lord allowing tests and trials for you to build a strong relationship with him, He wants to have you stand on your most holy faith. These trials prepare you for battle, that you will stand against the wiles of the devil. He prepares you to quench the fiery darts of the wicked and to stand in the evil day. Trust that He will lead you by His spirit in the path of all truths. #trust #wait #pray
