Endure Hardship As Discipline

''Hebrews 12:7 Endure hardship as discipline;
God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his Father? ''

'' Hebrews 12 :11 No discipline seems pleasant at that time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. ''

Dear precious people of God, if you are one of those who God is taking through fires of shaping and moulding, cheer up, and commend yourselves, that your Father is only getting you into the image He has for you.

I myself have gone through such hardship when God was shaping me up for the work He has to do through me. And believe me it was really painful, but once the work inside was complete, that very moment, in the wink of an eye, the promise of God began to manifest on the outside.

When we go through such phase in life, people might seem like they are trying hard to prevent your progress, might grab away your opportunities, colleagues might seem like creating political games around you , your reputation is being spoiled, rumours are being spread about you, people at home seem uncooperative, looks like you are stuck up in a desert... its just total darkness around you... this is what it feels like ...

But you know something, unless all the doors the closed, we will not turn our eyes towards our Saviour and all these situations are but only to draw your time and attention towards His word, so that His light can shine on you and you get trained in the way that God wants you to take, and by meditating on His word, your spirit starts yielding the gifts of righteousness inside you, that we are granted through Jesus.

These trials will make us keep our trust totally in Him, and trains us how not to look around for a string of help from the world..

These will make us realise how worthless is trusting man for help...

During such times, even if we try to approach men for help, it will only mess it up further, it will only add to the already going through agony - Do not seek help from people, when God is taking you through hardship. Rely just on Him.

Learn to totally make Him your Source of supply.

Even your smallest desires, express to your heavenly Father and wait on Him. He will surely raise people, and raise resources for you and send you the help you need.


'' 1 Peter 4:12 Do not be surprised at the painful trail you are suffering as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ. ''

But do not get dejected if the pain is hard, do not let curses come out from your lips against His plans, do not feel sympathetic that this is happening with you while the whole world is in its merry...but endure it, with humility and let perseverance finish its work in you...

When the work inside you complete and Once God thinks...

YES ! Now he is ready! Now he will hold on to me... even if I shower a million blessings on him he will not take pleasure in them.... but will delight only in Me...

Now He can withstand any situation that he might face in his journey ahead...

Now He knows how to seek me for all that he needs...

Now He will be really really afraid even to pass through the neighborhood of Sin...

Now He will first come to me and ask me at every stage , what to do next...

Now He knows how to hear my voice clearly...

Now He knows how to wait on me...

Now he knows how to keep all his eyes on me and not look around...

Now he will Rejoice in my name, though I send a famine or a devastation around...

Now, for my Name He will stand up...

He now looks like my Son...

Who knows his identity...

Who knows who his Father is... He will now do my Will!

When all the items on God's agenda are fully made complete in us...i.e.,until we are shaped into the likeness of Jesus Christ, its then that God releases us... into His promise... into what He promised He will do...

Until that time, there will not be a single sign or a single loop in the natural, to make us feel that yes, I see this so God's promises will surely come to pass...No!

All that we will be given is just His WORD.

Rest everything will be vacuum locked.

We will not be able see anything in the natural, that grants assurance of His promise until the hour He chooses.

And this is how we need to develop our FAITH.

Holding on to that Word, when we humbly wait on Him, its then the process inside begins.

There could be bomb blasts happening around, could be famines, and could be volcanoes or tsunamis occurring, but all we must hold on is to the promises of God and keep His ways, and endure all that hardship..

Allow the Spirit of God to completely reconcile your spirit to God, and then, in God's chosen time, things will suddenly change on the outside.

In the wink of an eye you will fly away like an eagle from those situations..into the freedom that Jesus promised.

Dear God's precious people, therefore endure hardship as our Father's way of discipline.
Abide by His word in all you do, for when He shapes you up and makes you ready..into the image He has for you, and begins to use you in His kingdom, your heart will surely cry out...

'' Father... What have You made of me ... am I worthy of this...? ''

My heart cried out...
when I saw the person He shaped me into ... and when He started using me for His work...

And this makes me to stay humble in His presence now... all the time...and stand in awe of Him, in reverence and in gratitude...

He who let go off His Own Son for you, will He let you go off His Hands ...?

You are safe in Your Maker's Arms!

Let's Pray..

Father, all those dear ones whom, in your great love, You are now moulding them, let them have the feeling of being secured, that comes from the Faith, the comfort that comes from Your promises, the unbeaten hope that comes from Your Faithfulness...

Lord, let not the enemy deceive them by diverting their attention towards the external, but Lord may Your Spirit open the eyes of their spirit .....
and let them see the heaven inside them ...
let them see their Father, their Maker, in His great compassion, transforming their inside in order that they may be reconciled to You..

and may they dwell in Your presence the rest of their lives..

I release a hedge of protection around all those dear people in the name of Jesus..

May the work you have begun in them be completely accomplished in their lives, for Your glory.

May Your devouring fire surround them, and consume every arrow that the enemy tries to throw at them, Lord preserve them in the incubator of Your Word, may the life from Your Word flow like streams and nourish them, and help them to surrender completely to doing Your will, and help them to keep every effort to co-work with You, and segregate themselves from the world, and may the likeness of Your Son, be revealed in them. Transform them into Mighty warriors of testimony of Your Love, who will stand up till the end, only to be received into Your Glory.

I cover them all with the blood of Jesus.
In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

God Bless You
