*DAILY DEW 1ST/FEBRUARY/2022* *Faith Series: The Trials of Faith* _Key Bible Text:_ *"By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.”* (Hebrews 11:17-19 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ God does not tempt us but our Faith will be tried. Until our Faith is tried, it will not have the opportunity to be marked "tested and trusted". In 1 Peter 4:12-13 (KJV), it is written, *"Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy."* Trials of Faith must come but they do not have a particular way of coming. For Abraham, God needed to test his ability to obey and sacrifice. It was God himself asking Abraham to offer Isaac. It was left for Abraham to either obey or disobey. In every trial of your Faith, you will have to either obey or disobey. You will also perceive that God is behind it all, sometimes like an examiner who does not help his student during an exam. When you are going through trials of your Faith that comes as challenges or persecution, or when you are being directly requested by God to offer up something, the key is to remember that your Faith is tried not to weaken it, but to strengthen it. As we enter a new month, and as the year unfolds further, be sensitive to the various ways God might allow your Faith to be tested. When you are sensitive, it is easier to discern and prepare for the trial of your Faith such that you emerge victorious. _MEDITATION:_ *"That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ."* (1 Peter 1:7 (KJV)) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Tuesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Year_of_Big_Favours* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Happy_New_Year_2022* *#Hello_February* ❤ Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/12/trusting-against-all-odds.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg *WhatsApp Group:* http://bit.ly/The_David_Generation Feel Free to Share with Friends.
