Be Patient in Trouble

October 14, 2024

Today’s Scripture

Be glad for all God is planning for you. Be patient in trouble, and prayerful always.

Romans 12:12, TLB

Today’s Word

It’s no coincidence that the apostle Paul connected “be glad for all God is planning for you” with “be patient in trouble.” That’s because in trouble, in difficulties, and in delays, you’ll be tempted to get discouraged and think, “The medical report is too bad. I had this setback in my career. It’s never going to work out.” None of that is a surprise to God. You don’t know the solution God has already planned. You don’t know where He’s taking you. Be patient in trouble. Be prayerful in trouble. The trouble is not permanent. The trouble is not how your story ends. God wouldn’t allow the difficulty if He wasn’t going to bring you out better. The Scripture says, “God makes everything beautiful in its time.” Give God the time to work it out. Just because you don’t see anything happening doesn’t mean God is not working. Behind the scenes right now, He’s lining up everything that you need. His plans are bigger, better, and more rewarding than you could ever imagine.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You for Your plans for my life and how You will work them out. Thank You that I can trust You in times of trouble and be patient, knowing that You will make it beautiful in its time. I believe that trouble is temporary and You’re going to bring me out better. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
