Are You Strengthened By God's Word...

When faced with a challenge, how do you cope ?

In Jesus' case, recalling an appropriate scripture helped him face Satans challenge..
{ Matthew 4:1-11 }

Likewise, when King David faced personal trails, he was strengthened by God's word..
He said:
" When my disquieting thoughts became many inside of me,
your own consolations began to fondle my soul."
{ Psalm 94:19}

In a similar manner, recalling a favorite scripture can console us or give us
stength when we faces challenges..
For example , Rex, who is now 89 years of age, has been a full- time evangelizer since 1931..
Yet he says: " I often felt inadequate when given a special assignment in the ministry."

How did he cope ?

"I recalled my favorite scripture, Proverbs 3:5 , which says:
' Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding.'
Recalling and applying this scripture helped me to carry out my assignment succesfully."

Even young ones benefit from haveing a favorite .
Six- year-old Jack says that his favorite scripture is Matthew 24:14..
This scripture motivates him to go preaching with his parents.
He says :
" I like going witnessing every Saturday with my mum, dad, and sister."

Like Jesus, do you sometimes face direct challenges to your faith ?
Then Philipians 4:13 may become one of your favorite scriptures..
