Neil NRG Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 On 4/25/2004 at 0:55 PM, Pastor Ralph said: Q4. (5:10-11) Which promises in verses 10 and 11 are most meaningful to you at this point in your life? Why? I truly thought my suffering for a while was over some weeks ago, then my life changed again. The positive change and growth that occurred in my life on 2 July was quite remarkable. This was followed by 3 weeks of renewal. Two people that prayed with me that day (2 July) mentioned endurance and yes I need to endure once more. Peter talks of periods of struggle followed by periods of renewal and that has indeed been happening. What grieves me, is having thought I had broken through with a weakness of mine or of my wife, I find it is incomplete, which puzzles me. I guess we will always be incomplete in some way until the Lord returns. When we have breakthroughs it seems the devil is there waiting to pounce and to peg back our renewed faith and confidence in God. The Lord God is my strength, my peace, my comforter, my protector, my source of love. I follow Jesus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil NRG Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 On 7/27/2008 at 1:27 AM, Tabatha said: When I am Brokrn in spirit and feel totally alone God takes the hurt , the aloneness, feeling of rejection and begins to do a work as I come to Him, and He begins to repair me, so that I may be even better than before to carry out His work even more effectively. When I feel I can't go on I know it is God who has called me unto Him self and He has no intention of abandoning me in the heat of the battle. In fact, during the battle, God " will Himself restore me and make me strong, firm and steadfast." God has every intention of taking me from my despair to bringing me to the hope and joy of my salvation, But I need to be willing to go through the fire if that is where He's leading so that when He brings me through He will get the Glory and I will exit the trial even stronger. To Him be the power for ever and ever Amen. ( John 14:27 ) ' Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid. Because my family are moving to Texas and I will be alone. I live in California and am a widow living alone not in the best of health. I do have Jesus as my closet friend, I will still miss my family. God bless you Tabatha. The Lord's peace be with you. I pray that new Christian family and friends come into your life in California. The Lord hears you and loves you dearly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanks Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Q4. (5:10-11) Which promises in verses 10 and 11 are most meaningful to you at this point in your life? Why? Most meaningful to me is the fact that our God is the ‘God of all grace’. This lovely title of our God reminds me that His dealings with me are not based on what I deserve, but on His thoughts of love for me. He will Himself restore me, in other words make me perfect (KJV). I understand that He wants to restore and mend what sin has broken. That is to make me complete so that I may grow to become more and more like Jesus Christ. He truly is a God of Grace. Then there is the promise of eternal glory – the thought that I shall be with the Saviour and be like Him forever! Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

Eilen Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 That God will restore us making us strong is most meaningful to me. I need God to heal my body, mind and spirit so that I can take up the cross and be a true Christian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(5:10-11) Which promises in verses 10 and 11 are most meaningful to you at this point in your life? Why? "The God of all grace" is a God who has shown us favor and forgiveness when we least deserved it, taking the punishment upon himself in Christ Jesus. This is meaningful to me because as I realize that as I travel this Christian walk, I am not perfect. I am glad that he is a God of grace and will forgive me of my sins.

Sandtoad Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 God's invitation to me showing His hope and plan for me to live with eternal glory and eternal life. In Christ: Grateful that I came to the Lord, later in life, which in my case I believe I appreciate my faith more. Looking forward to the end of suffering, that it is not permanent. While I am waiting, God assists me in endurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lighthouse2014 Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 On 4/24/2004 at 9:55 PM, Pastor Ralph said: Q4. (5:10-11) Which promises in verses 10 and 11 are most meaningful to you at this point in your life? Why? The promises most meaningful to me right now are, the call for eternal glory in Christ; God himself will strengthen us in time of suffering. These two promises above are important to me right now because through faith Christ has suffered for me and stands before the Father as an ambassador for me, he strengthens me when the devil brings mental and physical troublesmy way. knowing he understands me helps me endure many trails and tribulations.

Krissi Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 Honestly, the most meaningful phrase in this verse to me, right now, is the promise that says that my suffering will eventually end. When I read this, I skipped over the promises of restoration, strengthening and security to focus on the words “a little while …”. It’s been 14 years.
