#2 corinthians 4:8‭ ‬9

[walkswithmyfather]

“For example, there was God’s promise to Abraham. Since there was no one greater to swear by, God took an oath in his own name, saying: “I will certainly bless you, and I will multiply your descendants beyond number.” Then Abraham waited patiently, and he received what God had promised. Now when people take an oath, they call on someone greater than themselves to hold them to it. And without any question that oath is binding. God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind. So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary. Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.” —Hebrews 6:13‭-‬20 (NLT)

“We have troubles all around us, but we are not defeated. We often don’t know what to do, but we don’t give up. We are persecuted, but God does not leave us. We are hurt sometimes, but we are not destroyed.” —2 Corinthians 4:8‭-‬9 (ERV)

“Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying.” —Romans 12:12 (NLT)

“It is the hope of Christ that makes it possible for us to persevere in times of tribulation save distress.” —R.C. Sproulm

We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair.

We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed.

2 Corinthians 4:8‭-‬9 NLT

We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:8‭-‬9 ,,, Again we see that life isn't easy for a Christian. We aren't promised an easy life but we are promised a way to deal with a hard life. Jesus is the answer

To be answered doesn’t mean to receive the desired response

Do you remember that scene in Bruce Almighty when he decided it was a good idea to say “Yes” to every prayer and he almost destroyed the city? James 4:3 says “You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.” 

In 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, Apostle Paul tells us about a time when he prayed several times for deliverance, “Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.” (2 Corinthians 12:8‭), however God’s plan for Apostle Paul was to have him go though those hardships in order to perfect himself (2 Corinthians 12:9).

God always answers our prayers, but sometimes receiving an answer requires patience, like Daniel that fasted for three whole weeks (Daniel 10:2-3) while waiting for an answer, even though God had heard his prayer from the beginning (Daniel 10:12) and sometimes instead of “Yes”, He says “No” and even “Later”.

We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— II Corinthians 4:8‭-‬9 NKJV わたしたちは、四方から患難を受けても窮しない。途方にくれても行き詰まらない。 迫害に会っても見捨てられない。倒されても滅びない。 コリント人への第二の手紙 4:8‭-‬9 口語訳 Afligidos en todo, pero no agobiados; perplejos, pero no desesperados; perseguidos, pero no abandonados; derribados, pero no destruidos. 2 Corintios 4:8‭-‬9 NBLA 我们四面受敌，却不被困住；心里作难，却不至失望； 遭逼迫，却不被丢弃；打倒了，却不至死亡。 哥林多后书 4:8‭-‬9 CUNPSS-上帝 #Bible #聖書 #Biblia #圣经 #JackdaddyChronicles #Beginner #Principante #初級 Japanese #Japonés #日本語 #日文 #Intermediate #Intermedio #中級 #Spanish #Español #スペイン語 #西班牙文 #Chinese #Chino #中国語 #中文 https://www.instagram.com/p/CWgB-6aLOwt/?utm_medium=tumblr
