Prepare for Promotion: Stand Firm Through the Testing of Your Faith
SHOW NOTES:
EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode, I share an excerpt from Step Eight of my new book, Living Perfectly Loved.
“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong” (1 Corinthians 16:13 NIV).
It is through the testing and refining of our faith that the Lord will prepare us for new opportunities, new responsibilities, and change. You may be going through what is known as the refiner’s fire, but God will use this time of trials and testing to strengthen your faith so that you will not fall apart when He promotes you to a position that will require a greater level of faith to sustain you, such as a new kingdom assignment where you may come face to face with significant spiritual warfare. The testing of your faith will produce perseverance in you—a supernatural strength to stand firm on the promises of God amidst even the most severe opposition. And by perseverance, I mean true grit!
In this episode I will reveal four ways you can practically fix your eyes on Jesus to help you keep the faith in the wait when your circumstances are pushing you to give up. With hope-filled eyes of faith, fixed on Jesus, you will begin to see God working and moving in your life in ways that cannot yet be seen with your eyes of flesh—giving you a better understanding of who God is, what His will is, and what His plans and purposes are for your life. God will make a way for you where there seems to be no way.
