()
Speaker Jonny Grant, on March 3, 2019Part of the Healing Through Suffering series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
Suffering as a gift – Hope (Part 2)
All things for Good
We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for your mighty hand to ease our suffering
And all the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things…
Embracing Suffering as a gift:
Produces a Christ-like beauty - James 1v2-3
‘Suffering is an opportunity to gain the most valuable thing on earth; a faith that is complete and lacking nothing; maturity and depth in our relationship with God.’ Alberry
Results in an assured future - 1 Peter 1v6-7
Enables us to comfort others - 2 Corinthians
1v3-4
Leads to the salvation of others - 2 Corinthians 4v10-12
‘Oftentimes, while passing through the perils and defeats of my first four years on the mission field, I wondered…why God had permitted such things. But on looking back now, I already clearly perceive that the work never could have been accomplished but for the sufferings…’ Paton
Displays the glory of God – 2 Corinthians 4v15
