T. D. Jakes | – Identifying the Trials That Test Faith – Pastor Dr. Valerie Crumpton

Isolation. Frustration. Trepidation. 2020 was brute personified. Countless people unemployed and evicted, waiting in food pantry lines, and dying of COVID-19. Since the pandemic unfolded, one question still looms amidst the face masks: Where in the world is God in these dark times? See, the truth has been compromised, redefined, and scrutinized when we fail to recognize who God is. The infallible news is that this pandemic cannot overshadow God’s omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence. From Genesis to Revelation, He is the same Father of Lights that James, the servant, wrote about to encourage Jewish Christians to “count it all joy” when faced with trials and temptations — and that’s where we will find God. The darker the times, the brighter He shines! As we prepare to usher in a new year, be encouraged with godly wisdom for 2021: study the Word of God, be quick to listen, slow to speak or get angry, and delight in knowing that He will help you navigate what lies ahead!

  1. As you talk to Heavenly Father and pour out your heart to Him, you will draw closer to Him. Then pause, stop, and listen to the feelings of your heart. Seek to understand the promptings of the Spirit. As you pray sincerely, you will come to feel Heavenly Father's great love for you.

  2. I lost my job because I didn’t want to take the vaccine due to me struggling with lupus. I’m already in a lot of pain. This trial has brought me closer to God. I have two children to provide for. I will try not to be afraid because I do believe. And have faith. Thank you again.
