Tough Times When it comes to building muscle, how much weight you lift is not as important as how many repetitions you do. The more “reps”, the stronger you become. So it is with your faith. When you face tough times and come through them, you develop the faith needed to handle the next crisis. You know that since God brought you through that, He can also bring you through this. It’s necessary to experience both success and failure, for built into each is the ability to be stronger and wiser tomorrow. David destroyed Goliath, because he’d “faith-trained” with a lion and a bear! He also refused to wear King Saul’s armor because he knew you can’t use somebody else’s workout regime to kill Goliath. “I cannot go with these, for I have not proved them” (1 Sam 17:39) What you’re going through right now is just equipping you to handle what God has for you in the future. It’s been sent so you that can work on your training formula. Have you noticed how certain people can lose everything, yet a few years later they’re back on top again? That’s because they know the formula, and that’s better than the riches, for the formula will work anywhere. If you can cook, you can cook anywhere. If you can sing, you can sing anywhere. Learn God’s formula for your life. Use the situation you’re in right now as a faith training opportunity.
