Stand the test

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.(NIV) James 1:12

Indeed we do not have a high priest who has not been tested but One who was tested in all ways and yet was without sin. Obstacles are set backs in our Christian faith but when you always look up to your high priest when you are being weighed by these tests or temptations, you wear a crown of success and perseverance.

When trials come our way, it is either a test from God or a temptation of the devil. In both situations, it takes the grace of God to put you firm and strong.Trust in God to deliver you.

Well that sounds scary right? Never be overwhelmed by the test and temptation which has become the obstacle. After praying, you need to look beyond the obstacle so that you do not fall. Keep in mind, Jesus Christ is your high priest and looking up to Him means not allowing yourself to be swayed. God be with you.

Though no-one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new end.- Author Unknown
