Truth 4 the Week - Groanings of a believer

Topic: Groanings of a believer
Bible Verse: John:16:20 "Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy."

 Message : Every believer in Christ enjoys freedom, joy & blessings. At the same time they undergo sorrow each day to keep up holiness and faith (Romans:8:22). But we have to understand that this Sorrow is for good; it will turn into joy just like a woman giving birth to a baby (John:16:21). Jesus prayed daily in tears to God who was able to save Him from spiritual death (Hebrews:5:7). blessed are you when you weep and cry to God for holiness and faith because you will be rewarded (Psalm:126:5). Secondly, through this groaning we prepare ourselves and also others for the second coming of Christ (1Thessalonians:5:8-11). Finally it's a short time that we have to go through this sorrow (John:16:16). Though we are tempted because of our weakness God doesn't allow anything beyond our ability (1Corinthians:10:13). God bless you.

Prayer: Dear Lord thank you for understanding our groanings and also helping us to succeed. Continue to speak with us.In Jesus Name Amen
