When Times Are Tough -3

 

Sometimes the going will be tough, sometimes everything will not go our way, sometimes there will be trouble in our lives.

 

We can study the life of Paul and know that he knows what he is talking about.  II Corinthians 11:22-28

 

So, we can be sure that tough times are going to come and when they do we are to look to the Word!

 

Romans 12:21 - Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

 

We want to learn to be “Doers of the Word.”

This is so important when tough times come. If we are going to overcome evil with good, we must do it the following ways.

 

  • Study, meditate on, and Obey the Word of God!
  • Realize the Importance of Service
  • Strive to be a Faithful Steward!

 

I Corinthians 4:2, “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.”

 

We ought to be faithful to the worship, work, and witness for God!

 

This Christian life is a life of service, a life of self-denial, a life of separation, a life of satisfaction and a life of being Spirit-filled!

 

What kind of Christian are you in the Lord’s work? Are you obedient? Are you a servant? Are you a faithful steward?

 

Maybe you’ve never trusted Christ? 

Maybe you’ve never committed to be a follower of Christ.

 

Trust Christ as Savior today, commit to following Him and experience the joy of being right with God!
