Encouraging Bible verses for overcoming life’s Problems
Life is often not a bed of roses. There are challenges that may cause you to ponder the meaning of life. Without a trustworthy source of strength, it is easy to give up but what you need every moment is Bible word of encouragement.
According to Jim Rohn, “Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom.”
Adversity befalls everyone, but it is your ability to overcome it is what sets you apart. When tough times come, it is the tough people that keep going forward with confidence.
King David in the Bible (1Samuel: 1-8) faced a situation that would have made him to lose hope, but he rather chose to believe God.
The worst crisis of his life occurred when his entire family and those of his companions were abducted and their belongings either burnt or carted away. He came to the end of his rope, and he bad situation became worse when his followers blamed him for the calamity and thought of stoning him to death.
Under such a condition, there was no one he could turn to for help or comfort, but to God. Sometimes, God will bring you to a situation whereby all known physical support will fail. It is therefore wise to know what to do before you face major life’s battles.
You need to build your inner strength now and not wait. No soldier goes to battle without adequate training. Train yourself therefore, believe and grow in faith for it is by faith that you overcome.
I hope you will be encouraged and strengthened as you meditate on the following uplifting verses:
