PRAISING THE LORD AT ALL TIMES
Job worshiped the Lord both in happiness and in the midst of suffering. He recognized that all good comes from the Lord. When he lost all that he had, he did not lose his faith. In this, his faith was tested and found genuine. How we face good and bad times reveals the true nature of our faith.
How is this season of life affecting your faith? Are you learning to praise the Lord in all times? For whether the Lord gives or takes away, the Lord is always good. Even His afflictions are blessings in disguise when seen through the eyes of faith. Let us learn to join the prophet Jeremiah in saying, “The Lord is my portion” (Lam. 3:24). So that having the Lord, we have all things and are able to praise Him at all times.
PRAYER: Father, we praise Your holy name today. For You alone are good. Even your afflictions are blessings in disguise. We trust You in all things. We receive this day from Your hand knowing that every detail must pass through Your fingers before it touches us. We love You Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.
