TRIALS: BIBLE VERSES
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Trials
Deuteronomy 4:34
Or has any god ever attempted to go and take a nation for himself from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, by wonders, and by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, and by great deeds of terror, all of which the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Deuteronomy 7:19
The great trials that your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So will the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
Luke 22:28
You are those who have stayed with me in my trials,
Acts 20:19
Serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews.

1. Trials
a) Trials and tribulations are words that we do not like to hear. We all face different trials and tribulations. They come to us in every walk of life. Some of us will face financial trials for our entire life. Many will face physical trials or troubles. Maybe it is family or relationship trials. We all seem to have some “cross to bear.”
b) Some people seem to believe that if you become a Christian, that all of your trials will go away. Some have called this the “prosperity gospel” which means that if you believe in Jesus, everything will be great! This type of belief is not found in Scripture. Quite the contrary. Jesus never told his followers that if they followed him, everything would be great or rosy. He told people that followed Him that it will be a difficult road.
c) Thankfully, there are many passages and verses concerning trials and tribulations (some other words used too are “trouble,” “affliction,” and “oppression”).

Then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment.
