🤔 Suffer well? Sis, do you suffer well? I know that this may be a foreign concept to most but scripture actually calls us as women of Yah to suffer well or suffer righteously. There IS a way to go through hard things righteously and we are responsible to counsel our hearts with the word of Yah so that when trials come we do not sin. In this episode I am sharing a few lessons I’ve learned as I strive to suffer well. A topic that may not go viral or spark the interest of many, but one that will benefit all who have ears to hear and a heart to receive. Join me as I being to open the pages of my life and share how I strive to endure. 📖 Scripture speaks of suffering as a natural part of the life of the believer: * Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 2 Timothy 3:12 * Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. Psalm 34:19 * But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 1 Peter 5:10 * My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:2-4 📖 A biblical response to suffering: * Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1 Peter 4:12-13 * 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 * And not only so, but we glory (take pleasure) in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Romans 5:3-5 * We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 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. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 Mentioned in this episode: * The Intercessor’s Circle * LoveDoneWrite - Shop Prayer Journals + Prompts Love Done Write is a reader-supported publication.
