Read Job 1:13-22
By Curtis Strickland
God allows difficulties in our lives. They may not be as harsh as Job’s. Praying and depending on God during these times will strengthen our faith and dependence on Him. There was a time when my wife and I went through a very difficult time. She was diagnosed with cancer. We were devastated. Not knowing the severity, we were scared beyond belief. Our faith in God and a simple prayer to ask God to help us eased our fear. God answered that simple prayer. My wife is cancer free and we believe God will not allow it to return. My praise and gratitude cannot be expressed in words. Read Phil 4:4 and I Thes 5:18. If your prayer is to have any effect, then it must come from a thankful heart.
Applying the Truth as an Individual
Examine your life. Are you grateful and praising God for everything?
Applying the Truth as a Church
Does PVBC praise God or just go through the motions?
Read Hebrews 13:15
