Test of Faith

Imagem de capa - Test of Faith

The devil, knowing the importance of a test (it is the solution to every problem when it is presented on the Altar of God), tries to distort its real meaning.

Many are suffering, complaining, filled with despair, and, unfortunately, they think they are being tested.

Cancer, poverty, betrayal, and so many other pains have been synonymous of a test.

There are even those who say:

“God is testing me!”

“I’m going through a great test!”

However, all this suffering is not a test!

Quite the opposite, it is necessary to test your faith when faced with these evils, and put a definite end to this situation.

Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you. Genesis 22.1-2

Abraham was tested and approved. This is why the Most High considered him the father of faith.

God’s friends are all those who are approved on His Altar.

Abraham’s test was not the fact that he did not have a child.

Abraham’s test was to put his son on the Altar in the Moriah.
