Abundantly bless us in the end

Lord's purpose is not to diminish but to abundantly bless us in the end!

For you, O God tested us;
You refined us like silver.
You brought us into prison
and laid burdens in our backs.
You let men ride our own heads,
we went through fire and water,
but you brought us to a place of abundance
(Psalm 66:10-12)

why does God sometimes permit his people to go through "fire and water"? because he wants to enlarge our lives through his purging process. He uses delays, negative circumstances, unfair treatment, and a host of other difficulties as his works within us. How else can he secure our total trust and surrender than by the process of refining us like silver? So hold on to what God has said even though ten thousand voices tell you it's useless. Move ahead in the assignment he gave you even when you face obstacles on every hand. Never mind how difficult things are for the moment. In just a little while, God will bring you into "a place of abundance"

When we hold on to God's word, we will always witness a day when the Lord says "Now you will see what I will do!" The testing of God's word is always followed by the fulfillment of it.

Joy: Lord, Thank you for your word...I know you've been molding me into a person you want me to be. Sometimes it doesn't make sense but i rather trust and believe in you coz you know what is best for me. Thank you for your loving kindness and the joy that makes me strong. Break more my heart the things that break your heart . I know when things go wrong you will never leave me nor forsake me. I will run after you and see your beauty coz you are everything for me. I will always hold on to your words and your promises. Thank you for your promises coz i know when you promise no one can reverse it. I love you my Jesus!
