Daily Devotional for February 26
“And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance.” (Romans 5:3)
Endurance Over Escape
How do you deal with difficulties? Are you trying to run away and hide from reality? If you act like this, you are a loser. Why?
Because if you don’t learn to control your fear and act regardless of unfavorable circumstances, you won’t achieve anything in life.
It is necessary to understand that difficulties are just a life situation. It is unpleasant, but it needs to be solved. Therefore, first of all, you need to calm down, evaluate, make a decision and act.
This is not learned in one day. Therefore, God often calls you not to panic but to follow the path of long-term faith. As you persevere through trials, you grow and mature in your faith and virtues. Choose endurance in the face of trials.
The Frustration of the Enemy
Imagine the enemy’s defeat when you remain steadfast and patient despite his best efforts to disrupt your peace and joy. Your endurance over escape not only thwarts his plans but also strengthens your character and faith.
A Clear Sign of Victory
Your unwavering stance in trials is a powerful testament to your faith in God. It sends a clear message to the enemy of his impending defeat and the world of your confidence in God’s salvation and deliverance.
Faith in Action
Standing firm and unafraid, especially when faced with adversity, is the ultimate demonstration of your trust in God. This faith signals to God your readiness for His intervention and victory in your life.
