Ye Shall Have Tribulation: But Be of Good Cheer

Many Christians think they are to receive their best lives now, however, many Christians haven't been reading their Bibles. A true Christian is promised their best life in eternity, and for their stay upon the earth they are promised persecution, hatred, false accusations, betrayal, division, being scoffed at, and being treated as evil for the sake of Christ, even unto death.  The deceived believe God owes them every blessing and comfort that this life has to offer. The saints reward is in Heaven. FRIENDS, DON'T BE DECEIVED.

 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated you.

 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also. John 15:18-20
 

  Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. Psalms 34:19

These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. John 16:33

Joshua 24:15b

 



God is Still on the Throne

God is still on the Throne, And He will remember His own;

Tho 'trials may press us and burdens distress us, He never will leave us alone;

God is still on the throne, He never forsaketh His own;

His promise is true, He will not forget you, God is still on the throne.

Charles Spurgeon" Cheer up, Christian! Things are not left to chance:

 no blind fate rules the world. God hath purposes and those purposes are fulfilled.

God hath plans and those plans are wise, and never can be dislocated.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,

to them who are the called according to His Purpose.

 Romans 8:28
