When facing trials, tribulations, and the testing of your heart you have two basic options: Give up, or gird up your loins and endure. The purpose of this message is to review 5 examples of endurance in the lives of faithful servants of God:

Free Booklet: The Gospel of the Kingdom

• The endurance of Joseph and the testing of faith
• The trials of Jeremiah
• The trials of Job and the testing of the heart
• David: to act or wait?
• Jacob: the man who struggled with God

The kingdom of God and the promises of God are worth fighting for! Now is not the time to say, "God is asking too much of me", "no one told me it was going to be so hard". If the ministry did not warn you to count the cost, then shame would be upon them. But I think the ministry does ask each man, and woman, to count the cost. I know the word of God and of Christ sure do. Matthew 10:34-39.
