Suffering should teach us God’s love and suffering should bring a greater ability to love those who cause us suffering.
11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
We are in Christ and Christ is in us
We have boldness and confidence of access we have to God through prayer
How can we ever come boldly to the throne of grace
Because Christ saved you He has faith in you
We don’t have to faint at the tribulations we face
Paul was mistreated and abused for the Gospel and he was encouraging other christians to not faint
Dont get faint in what another person goes through
Dont get faint
Dont get faint
Dont get faint
Whether they are my trials or your trials - dont faint
There is a power that is available to the Christian
Never faint in your faith - this
There is power sufficient for the dark times
In the times of fear there is security
In
If that’s not true then where is the power in Christianity
Troubled = affliction in every direction - turmoil on the inside and on the outside
not restrained, not cramped
perplexed - not cornered emotionally, it might seem like there’s no where to go
looks alone but not alone
Christ was with him
Not forsaken - Not deserted
In the middle of your suffering you must remember, Christ has not left you.
God’s grace is sufficient when we feel alone
Cast down - thrown down
not destroyed - left to die but havent died
A continual dying in all of us - dying to self
A process that God wants us to have
Php 3:10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
There is a dying to self process that God desires us to go through - Why
Responding Properly To Suffering Magnifies Christ
Why
So that When
Gal 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I nowlive in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
God will squeeze our life to the point that Jesus is seen
God will turn up the temperature in our circumstances, so the dross of our life is removed to the point that those who see us, see Jesus' reflection.
Jesus is our example in every area, but He is our example of how to deal with suffering.
If you do not suffer well
I remember times i didnt suffer well - like Christ
We deny Jesus the opportunity to be seen through us when we choose not to suffer properly.
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
That’s the meaning.
11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
This is advanced Christianity.
We like the elementary Christianity.
“Redeemed I’m so happy in Jesus”
We miss the divine purpose for suffering when we falsley
Do good to those who hurt you
Bless them that curse you
12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
When you see me die to selfishness
When you see me die to anger
When you see me die to bitterness
When you see me die to sin
When you see me die to wrath, and anger, and malice
And when I see you win spiritual victories by dying to the flesh It works life in me!
If that Christian can - I can
Jesus responded to suffering
Truly this is the son of God - said the soldier
When you respond improperly to your spouse
to someone at church
to someone on the street
We deny the Lord an opportunity to be glorified
God’s word is true - every time you have been comforted in life, the origin was ultimately God
You and I will never be able to accuse God of not giving us comfort.
Gen 37:34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
Gen 37:35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning.
Thus his father wept for him.
God comforts us Why?
Your suffering is not about you, it’s about others
4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
We are supposed to be sitting at the feet of Jesus, learning the comfort and lessons of our trials that we may bless others with the comfort we receive.
The comfort you receive is like a commodity - you can go around giving comfort to others who are suffering.
Responding Properly To Suffering Brings Comfort To Others
God will bring others into your life that need the comfort that God has given you.
As your suffering increases, the comfort and grace to meet that suffering increases.
You can never experience so much suffering that God’s comfort cannot be sufficient.
As your suffering increases, God’s grace and comfort increases.
Suffering will never exceed the consolation of God
The apostle Paul viewed his suffering as a comfort and deliverance to the saints at Corinth.
How does someone deal with a life us suffering, pain, and abuse.
You must be fully persuaded about some facts.
We know:
Apply what you know
These are safety truths.
these stay in the medicine cabinet and we have to go back to these truths and reaffirm these beliefs in our hearth and mind.
What happens when physically there is no hope
Your inner man can be renewed
These trials are working something beautiful in our life
Your trials should never cause you to quit serving Jesus
Are you increasing in serving the Lord or are you backing out?
Your labor is not in vain
Pain, suffering, trials, discomfort, torment, trouble, illnesses, injuries, and irritations - were for others
Christ paid the price for our salvation
but rewards cost a price
The life of Christ costs something
