Trials and temptations

 James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "blessed are you, when people persecuted you because of me..." Matthew 5:11

Many Christians hate trials and temptations, whereas temptations and trials is a platform for the children of God to manifest and it is a way of building up faith. Apostle Paul said, "faith without work is dead." 

The world is full of too many discouraging circumstances, it is the circumstances of life that tells if you truly have faith in God or not, it is our desires that trigger trials and temptations, God cannot be tempted by evil, but when you choose the way of God and confessed Christ Jesus as your Lord and savior, the devil will come after you inder to trial you and to proof you wrong. he tried Jesus when He was about to start His ministry, but the devil failed but he didn't give up; the Bible says, "the devil left Jesus for a while," and when Jesus was about to accomplish His mission on earth, He said, "but this is your hour, and the dominion of darkness." Luke 22:47 it means that the devil came to trial Jesus but Jesus ceased the hour to manifest. When temptation comes, be sensible, don't blame God but instead, cease that moment to glorify the Father.

Jesus said, "my kingdom is not of the earth," but many Christians focus their attention on the mundane things of this world, so when their desires dragged them off and trapped them, they started blaming God for their failure.

Use the moment of trials and temptations to build up your faith in God and to manifest the glory of God in your life.
