Troubles in your life




Matthew 16: 33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

Jesus promised trouble.
We must understand, that some of the trouble that comes into our lives, is self induced.
The trouble Jesus is talking about, comes to those who are true followers of His plan of redemption.

What kind of trouble do you have today in your life?
If it’s self induced, then maybe you need to find a quiet place today—get down on your knees—and ask for God’s total and perfect forgiveness.
Then after you do that, you must turn away or repent of the trouble you’ve gotten yourself into.
Seems simple enough—and it is!

If on the other hand, the trouble you have has come because of your true confession of Christ, then count yourself honored to suffer that kind of affliction.
Here’s the best news of the day……….Jesus has overcome any old trouble this world can dish out!

The only peace we’ll ever have, is the peace that comes by being in Him.
Do you have that peace today? Would you say that you’re “in Him”?
