Understanding the Struggle.

There are so many obstacle, trails and tribulation we have to go up against in life. What's important is knowing that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are right there with you when you are a child of Yahweh.

Don't Forget.

Throughout life as a follower of Christ, you find that life is full of highs and lows, but when you hit the LOWS, how you respond can either strengthen or weaken your faith and your relationship with YHWH.

In this blog, I will address from personal experience the importance of:

• addressing the problem

• overcoming the problem

• finding the lesson or blessing in the hardship.

Stage 1: The Affliction

When you find yourself amid a sudden loss, whatever that loss may be, it can be easy to want to be quick to suppress your feelings.

However, it is vital that you take the time to acknowledge the feelings that you are experiencing whether it be from spiritual warfare, testing from YHWH, or a situation you have created yourself.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41v10

The reason is that once you embrace and acknowledge your thoughts and feelings, EVEN dwelling in them for a while you can begin to pray to YHWH for guidance. Hence why this first stage is critical to healing, growth and progression.

Stage 2: The Search

When you find yourself, having to overcome the struggles in your life, you start to search and dig for an explanation as to why you had to endure that particular trail, and it is so important to not get side-tracked by your feelings.

This is only possible through starting to nurture your relationship with the most High YHWH, and from this, our Lord and Saviour Yeshua can cleanse your heart.

In addition, your renewed heart will hearken to convictions of the Holy Spirit to further assist you in your search for answers as this can be a lengthy process, and it all starts with reading the word of God, as this is how I have found the most High can speak the clearest to His children. This is only possible if you make sure you can...

Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. 1 Corinthians 16v11 KJV

Stage 3: Realising you're born again

Personally, when I underwent the struggle that ultimately led me to be born again, I found myself initially being so consumed with the issue, that it wasn't until later that I came to understand that the most High YHWH was chastising me out of LOVE. I almost missed the fact that the hardship was allowed for me to be able to search for the most High with a renewed heart and mind.

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 1 PETER 4v12 KJV

Stage 4: Ultimate Deliverance

(Goodbye to the old, Hello to the new)

Our total dependence on Yeshua, our Lord and Saviour means you begin to part ways with your worn down purposeless lifestyle, that made you a slave and subject to so many sins and strongholds.

The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. Psalms 34v17

Instead, you begin to embrace a holier lifestyle everything from:

1. diet

What do I mean by this?

Following Christ means, you are privy to the knowledge of clean and unclean meats because it is the love you have for YHWH that makes you want to embrace an eating palette that fits YHWH's standards. this video provides more explanation: https://youtu.be/LyISxvpf7cI?si=L1jm3vYc1NdOKQp-

2. Daily worship

Everything for morning and night prayers, daily repentance singing praises to the Lord,

3. Saying bye to pagan days.

Stage 5: Finding your Purpose

After overcoming your struggle(whatever that may be) you can start to realise that being a servant for YHWH and His Kingdom is extremely fulfilling.

Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. John 15v16 KJV

Moreover, you will have the conviction to have fruits to show that you are a child of YHWH. Spreading holy virtuous messages, with the word of God and more importantly supporting the men of God who do, will become a priority.

An uplifting message

Overall, embrace the struggle and heartache for there are new horizons to reach and a NARROW path to follow led by our light and truth Yeshua.

So whilst we may fall short to the glory of God,

By

1. Leading a life of daily repentance.

2. Remembering the sacrifice and resurrection and vital necessity of Christ.

3. Having total and absolute reliance on the most High YHWH to be your foundation.

4. Being led by the Holy Spirit.

means there is a great & perfect recipe for success.
