Why Does God Allow Trials in the Life of the Believer? Pastor Greg shares hope from Scripture for those looking for understanding in the midst of their challenges. The purpose of life's trials is for spiritual growth, for our good-to be formed into the image of Jesus, and to bring glory to God.

Dear Katie, I’ve been there many times. I’m nearly 70 now and life has been really hard. The Lord has brought me through so many fires and it was pretty grim BUT GOD. It will be worth it in the end. You will get there holding His hand and letting Him carry you at times. Keep calling on Him. Put the armour on daily. Choose to forgive and stand on His Word however difficult things are. We are running in a tough race. Don’t compare yourself with others. This is the Lord strengthening you however daft that sounds. He only allows His children to be honed to become diamonds and melted to remove the dross. It’s horrid but He has you in His hand. The Lord bless you.

Since my son passed away a year and a half ago, I have been praying so much i get up so early in the morning to pray I pray at night and at any time. I read my Bible after, and I can't concentrate. I feel like he doesn't listen to my prayers ; I know he does; I put my trust on him ,he gives and takes away, I Iove him the same, and I know he has a plan an a future for me and my family Heaven! That's our future and our home; we don't belong here; we are just passengers 💖 I humble myself every day and live by his grace 🙏.

There was nothing I could do to save Him. I know that Jesus Christ can take that horrible Day away from Me. But I need your help. Please, please pray for me, please. God bless you and your family.

I think I'm going to try the baptist church when the lockdown is over. They have woman's groups and bible studies and it seems the best choice. There is also s Roman Catholic Church, a Church of England and a Methodist. They are all very liberal - the Church of England has banned the use of male pronouns when referring to our Heavenly Father. We are supposed to say our heavenly parent.ugh. I am really looking forward to the fellowship. It's lonely as a solo Christian God bless you brother, love from your sister in the UK. 💕👊🏽

This is the reason why, most oftenly we treated God like a medicine, if we are sick then we administer it, but if we are already healed, we dont mind this medicine, same as when we have problem first thing first we ask refuge from God, but if all things are in order, we neglect God, we even trust our own ability and knowledge, that's why our life is full of dissatisfaction and always in miserable situation for we only remember our God during suffering and trouble

Well stated as I went through a near death experience, and God spoke to me and said I’m not taking you, you have work to do. After 88 days in the Hospital and many hours of rehabilitation, I’m home and walking again and sharing about Gods healing for my life. He healed me from Sepsis, Pneumonia,Rabdo, Renal, and a kidney infection with a kidney stone that had to be surgically removed! God is good and our difficulties strengthen us, and prepare us for our purpose to serve the Lord and to spread the love of Gods word.

I had a pretty bad childhood. Lots of stressful times. And fear of my father. I wasn't a Christian until I was 27. I'm 56 now. I've often thought I went through that and other trials to bring to the Lord. I must say if I could go back and change things. I don't think I would. Because I probably wouldn,t have came to that day I went to the front of the church at the alter call.

doesnt really matter if we would change things . its all in Gods plan to be part of his family . The bible says that no one come to me unless the Father draws him . God would have drawn you to him no matter how your childhood was . But I get what your saying . My own childhood was hostile and abusive and had allot to do with who I am now . God bless you and your journey with the Lord .

Since she passed last May out of nowhere even tho I'm a strong long time Believer, I'm a lost soul and attached to her younger son, my Beloved and Precious Nephew!!

I’m a young Christian (under 15) and this was much needed because I had full hope trust and faith in god until a couple weeks ago things started going downhill and I started doubting gods existence but then watched churches prayed and read bible verses once that got outta the way I gotta trial I’m in it right now but now I know what it is. But before I was confused because I’ve heard trial many times but never learned about it at first I was scared and felt drained of life then I learned after watching a different sermon this is from god so i came to here I’m praying and praying to endure it and now when I feel any temptation I’m starting to ignore it because of this video I also said to myself the analogy about lifting weights but also I think of it as an upgrade god called me out to come and he’s upgrading my faith by putting me through tests please _pray_ _for_ _me_ _to_ _get_ _through_ _this_

As a disabled veteran I deal with limitations both physical and mental that make me not able to serve God the way others are able to do and enjoy. I have prayed for healing and deliverance, but God still sees fit to leave me in the situation. I know my attitude is the key to my survival and my testimony. My life is in His hands to do with as He sees fit for my good, His glory and the advancement of His kingdom. The struggle isn’t in my condition, but in the misunderstanding by others, even by those close to me, people who have seen me walk this out yet still question my integrity. I can only believe that God is using my trial to teach them something about grace and mercy for others. Even as He daily teaches me the same thing. 🙏✝️🕊👏🙋‍♀️❤️‼️

With the current pandemic that’s going on, COVID-19. It seems like we’re all being tested by God. I know that this pandemic has brought us hardship and pain, but God will never abandon us during the pandemic. And he’ll give us the answer to our prayers such as a vaccine and a cure. I underwent a hardship during the pandemic. This past June, I lost my primary health care physician to the pandemic. The death was emotionally devastating. Did I give up on God? No. And I don’t intend to at all. I still trust in God and trust in what he has planned for me.

Why have you rejected me? Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy? 3 Send me your light and your faithful care, let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell. 4 Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God. 5 Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.

Great message for us all really! I just a couple weeks ago read "The Hiding Place" the story of Corrie Ten Boom and family, it was a form of healing for me and I also recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it. If you have read it I feel it's appropriately in context with this message here, that I quote what turns out to be one of my favorite parts in the story, "Thank You," Betsie went on serenely, "for the fleas and for ---" The fleas! This was too much. "Betsie, there's no way even God can make me grateful for a flea."

I smoke for a long time and I promised myself I would quit and that lasted about four days and then I just told God I was going to quit and I immediately quit and had no more cravings. Praise the Lord he always forgives sins he sent Jesus to die to pay for your sins. He will never leave you and he will never forsake you. His love for you is way without measure. Never lose hope your life is not over yet.

I believe God does give you more than you can handle so that He becomes the One who handles what you're given. The question is: Will you give what you can't handle to Him?

I’ve been broken down so many times In my life, I’ve got lots of “patience” /perseverance, I still give God the glory, still follow Him,still love Him, still need Him, so imagine my dismay when now, after all that, I’ve learned that my cat is terminally ill,we are just “waiting “ for him to die, what a horrible test to be going through, My heart is broken and very heavy, I ask God why?? Every day, sometimes more than once, I also pray all day for Jesus to heal my cat, I say God I know Jesus has healed in the past, I know He heals now, please heal my cat , over a month now since diagnosis and I still wait, have faith and hope, every day I thank Him for another day with my cat …please pray for healing for my cat, Sunny!

In my case, HE is allowing me to SEE, who is, who isn't, value systems I want to stay away from...far away...yes, it is quite an education and I am sure, needful but I'm still crying out for Psalms 133, Ephesians 4:16, Gen 50:20 and Ephesians 3:20-21...seems so far away, sometimes. OH! And don't forget John 3:21...because HE sure puts a priority on that. Also, FYI everytime a "glitch" from the enemy comes...here comes LET'S SEE IF WE CAN MAKE HER DOUBT. I laugh, HE has really gone before ALL of this with me and I'm glad...actually SO GLAD....been in the Secret Place a long time, AND still there through IT ALL and COMMITTED to staying there.. w/piano....I might add (got scripture for that). Regular prayer meetings at my house, breaking bread/fellowship/ you know, the Bereans....love that! Speaking of LOVE! Hey! 1 COR 13 AMPLIFIED and don't forget chapter 14...conveniently located next door. I do love 15 as well...read that real slow and meditated at a very strategic time that pushed me on into ETERNITY and I've never really come back ...you will see...

I'm troubled and need prayer. I've been absorbed in studying the Bible as I am saved. I was doing well but now have slipped back into the world system. I don't want to be lukewarm and I'm a sinner, saved only by the shed blood of the cross. Why do I do these things because my heart is hurting. I don't want to be a sinner. I just had a heartbreak 3 mos ago, was doing well, but as I said starting to back slide. Thank you

I love Greg Laurie! Great speaker! I think it is a fascinating title for a sermon. The idea that God "allows" trials is very fascinating! I don't think God allows trials, trials don't pop across His heavenly desk and He looks them over and says, "Yeh, This looks good!" and then stamps it with His approval. Trials will happen because we live in a fallen universe with free agents both human and angelic that make choices that impact us and the universe. God is the solution to your trial, the anchor for your soul, the one who works all things together for your good! He wouldn't have to work with it if it was His will. God loves you so much and it is very difficult to trust God in trial if you hold to a contradictory belief that says the One you are to trust is also the one who put this hardship on you. God doesn't allow trials, they happen for various reasons, but God does promise to deliver you and work it all out for your good! Praise Jesus!

God allowed Job's trials, and even asked Satan to 'consider him' because of his character; and Satan's power over what Job had. God is still God in the midst of our trials, and we are instructed to trust Him especially when He allows us to go through trials and hard times - because He is still in control of the universe in the grand scheme of things (even where He has allowed Satan dominion) and He wants to draw us near to Him in these troubled times.

@@JamesJones-vt5nn Yeh Job is an interesting book. It is heavily poetic and also it is a piece of wisdom literature. I personally don't believe it is historical at all. I believe it was crafted by the author to deal with the issue of "Why the Righteous suffer?" The theology reflects the ancient hebraic view of sovereignty in which everything, every event good or bad, was God ordained. We see this mindset in the story of Saul. Saul disobeys God and to the Hebrews, the author Samuel in particular, God sent a demon to terrorize him (1 Sam 16:14). Yet when we see who God truly is in the person of Christ we see Jesus casting devils out of people and not putting them into them. He heals the sick and doesn't bring sickness upon them. Jesus is the word, meaning He is the embodiment of the heart and will of God expressed perfectly, and only through Him can we see clearly who God is. Remember the Bible is inspired, thus fallible human agents were enlisted to create a literary portrait of God's redemptive plan. So the authors were also writing not merely under the inspiration of the Spirit but from their own perceptions, worldview, and so on. This means anything prior to Christ has the potential to have spurious theological assertions, such as in Job. If we compare the depiction of God in Job to that of Christ we clearly have some problems. In Christ God opposes the devil, thwarting him and liberating his prisoners, while in Job we see God provoking him and willfully endangering a human life. This is inconsistent and would render our understanding of God incoherent unless we use Christ as the standard and interpret the OT in light of the perfect revelation of God. So I don't take the Job depiction of God and suffering as a worthy depiction of God, rather I understand it to be inspired, but the thrust of the book is heavily influenced by an incomplete theology of God put forward by and ancient hebrew author who was wrestling with God and suffering. Christ must be our standard.

All Christ All The Time I agree with your immediate look to the counsel of other scripture, and that the book is a poetic book. I don’t agree with your view on God’s sovereignty or your definition of inspiration, and that’s where our differences lie. Thank you for your thoughtful and well-written response, may Christ’s peace be with you.

I’m one of the people who don’t go to church as I get along better just me and God, anyway I am the church, the building isn’t the “church” as long as I study Gods word and believe in Jesus that’s all that matters, to me, I used to attend church, long story as to why I left, but narrowing it down there was a clique, there were Sunday school teachers who favoured their own, my daughter was set aside , not noticeably, but I noticed, once I noticed I made a point of watching, telling my husband what I saw, and he did admit it was subtle , I thought I don’t need to worship God with hypocrites , I can do ok by myself , these Sunday school teachers just didn’t like me 🤷🏻‍♀️ , I’m a good people reader, I got a gut feeling early on about them, I played along, asked God to help me with my thoughts, and let me see that what I was thinking was correct or not, one Christmas party I did , …..I left soon after.
