Another secret to passing the test of life is to ‘learn to identify it is a test’. Many times, God would test us, but we rarely recognize it’s a test. But the truth of the matter is, the test we don’t identify, we fail to recognize, we don’t pass it. Tests don’t come announced, it doesn’t even look like it. It’s so silent but visibly manifested. It rarely comes from a place you expect it, but evidently amongst your close allies. And the bible has this to say,
SCRIPTURE: Gold and silver are tested by fire, and a person’s heart is tested by the Lord. (Proverbs 17:3 GNT)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: But one great way to recognize a test is that it keeps on coming around, testing the area of your greatest weakness. At first you may think it’s a mere bad break or some form of trouble coming from a friend or a neighbor. So, you tried and avoided it. But soonest or later, it would resurface again. This time from a different person, in a different place and environment that has no connection with the former place. You may now conclude you’re simply having a bad day. But it’s never a bad day nor trouble, it is a test, and you must learn to recognize and deal with it or else, it keeps coming around. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: The test you don’t identify, you fail to recognize, you don’t pass it.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, ask God for the grace to learn to recognize a test and to cause you to pass every one of them in your life.
PRAYER: O LORD, give me the grace to recognize a test in my life, and cause me to learn to deal with it, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and pray for other intentions as the Spirit leads)
PROPHETIC WORD: Receive the grace to recognize and deal with any form of test in your life NOW, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: Proverbs 17:3
