How are Christians Supposed to Handle Discouragements?

February 22nd 2009 19:16

We are all going to have hardships. It is Satan’s way of distracting us from our duties that we have been called by God to do. It is his way of trying to destroy our strength and faith systematically. But many humans are just too ignorant to see it.

Here is how Christians are supposed to handle discouragements in life in order to stay on the right track and follow Jesus home to spend eternity. The things to remember:

1. It is not about what happens to us that make us strong but how we handle the problems that we face.
2. Remind yourself of David and how in his time of struggles he strengthened himself by improving his relationship with God.

3. To strengthen yourself you need to: trust God, praise God, and thank God. Do not fixate or obsess on the bad that occurs, only focus on the good in every situation.
4. Pray diligently for God to intervene on your behalf.
5. Seek Him and His will, not your own.
6. Faith is the key to surviving everything!

Hey T.B.T. count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations. We know that all things work to the good of those that love the Lord.
