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

 

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

Rejoice in the Lord

Where you are today is no accident.  

God is using the situation you are in right now 
to shape you, and prepare you for the place 
He wants to bring you into tomorrow.  

Trust Him with His plan, even if you don't understand it

Take Heed

Jesus said: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Luke 5:32

...and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.
Matthew 5:21

Do you know Him? Does He know YOU?

He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, 

and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
  He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, 

and his life shall see the light. 

Job 33:27-28

In Christ Alone

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:
and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abideth on him.
