THIS TOO WILL PASS!

"Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? Hast not Thou made an hedge about him....thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. But now put forth Thine hands now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse Thee to Thy face". Job 1:9-11. My friend, now a days you are going through this claim by Satan- The question is "You like His PRESENCE more than His PRESENTS'? Satan cannot dispute our serving God, but he challenges our reason for serving Him. Satan says, it is for the prominence and protection God provides and if everything goes well we will praise Him. Our pride, self esteem, and self-confidence will deplete, and longevity of the trials will create fear in us whether it is going to end. But brother, there is a glory in the agonizing times like this which people didn't have to struggle seems not to possess. There is a strange sense of competence that comes from being born in the flames of struggle. Like the exuberance of a child who takes first steps who earlier was mobile only through crawling on his or her hands and knees. Last Sunday during praise and worship, we were singing "THROUGH THE STORMS" He is LORD! My friend, "Immanuel" is with us. Immanu means "with us". El refers to "Elohim or God". Remember, not an "above us God" or a "somewhere in the neighborhood" God. He came as the "with us God". Not God with the "RICH or RELIGIOUS" or "Americans" or "Indians" or "Europians" or "Africans" or "Russians" or "White" or "Black" or "Brown" or "yellow" or any career- but GOD WITH US..US..US..US, that means YOU AND I. So, cheer up my friend, THIS TOO WILL PASS. Hallelujah/////.
