Regardless of who you are, it is compulsory that our faith in Jesus will be tested.
Situations, poverty lack etc..could be challenging.
There are situations in life that have being challenging to Christians.
for example, the General Overseer was tempted.
3 of his children were delivered by operation.
He was warned by the doctors that his wife should terminate the pregnancy.
However, because of the fear of Jesus in Him, he refused to terminate the child.
When it was time for his wife to deliver to 4th child, she was in labor for days.
The devil tempted him saying his wife will die with the pregnancy.
Pastor Adeboye told the devil "with God all things are possible"
Immediately, he saw the light of God and the child was delivered safely.
Whatsoever you are going through, remember it could be a test.
Many people may get it wrong.
When unpleasant situations come their way, they question God.
When my faith is challenged,
1. I must NOT murmur Phil 2.14
