    Ive been paralyzed in bed since 14yrs quadriplegic after a bike accident. And I thank God for it because he has corrected and changed me. If i didnt have this accident I would have definitely ended up a bad person dammed to hell. I still hope he wlll heal me if its his will. If not I hope I die before my mom gets old and can't no longer take care of me in this bed.

I also believe a time is coming where there is going to be a great harvest of souls and many miracles will occur during that time. I pray it's God's will that you will "pick up your mat and walk" during that period of time in Jesus's name, Amen! Jesus, we trust in you!

      I feel the same way brother, I had arthritis at age 21 and the Lord humbled me beyond anything I could have ever imagined. It was tough but much needed because I was on my way to hell as a proclaimed “Christian”. Now I walk a life guided by Christ, glory to him who decided to heal me from that since then but I still need to be careful I don’t get prideful again. He keeps me humble though and I pray that the Lord willing would also do the same for you, regardless we should be content with our Father in Heaven despite our circumstances. Blessing brother

    I have to confess this video was suggested to me by the youTube algorithm after dwelling on a Isaiah Saldivar video on demon oppression in which basically everything is caused by a demon even in the believer... and listening to RC while comparing these two different approaches on suffering I can only praise the Lord for good servants like RC which with his preaching and lectures make our heart and eyes focus on God and His glorious redemption and not on ourselves or the demons who oppress the unbelievers, how great and awesome is the Grace of our Lord Jesus. If I have to suffer in this life let it be for HIS glory and HIS glory alone.

    The first of this year I received a heartbroken call that my daughter-in-law died from Covid-19...she wasn't fifty.
    The first of May my Social Security Office sent me a letter telling me their sorry for my loss, I was now receiving my husband's survivor's income now that I was known as a widow...he was 75.
    If Jesus didn't call me way back when I was a young mother of three little children this year's tragedies would have killed me. But because I answered His calling I'm thrilled to know I have that chance to see my loved ones again. Don't wait to answer God's call.

    This sermon got sent to me after I spent the weekend in hospital, with my only child having seizures.
    We've been going through tribulations on/off for the last 3 years. Christians tend to be so focused on the last days tribulation (that affects the whole world) that they forget we all go through tribulation that affects our own world.
    Romans 5:3 "We also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope."
    I've found it helps to remember God's promise, that He will never put us through anything we can't handle in Him. 1 Cor 10:13

      In Jesus's name, we bind the spirits of fear and anxiety upon Maria and loose faith and peace at this moment. Lord, your word promises us that you have not given us a "spirit of fear, but spirits of power, spirits of love and spirits of sound minds". Lord, we pray Maria will recognize and fight the battlefield which is going on in her mind right now and the unclean spirits which are exhausting her reserves. "In the multitude of our anxieties, your comforts delight our soul". Lord Jesus, please help Maria to know the authority she has in your name to overcome any obstacle put in her pathway. She will not be overcome. She will be an overcomer and have an amazing testimony. She will have peace of mind as RC Sproul mentions in Jesus's name, Amen.
      You will get through this, Maria. Better days are ahead!

      Maria, Jesus is in you, nothing can hurt you, His angels are always around you so do not fear, when bad anxious thoughts come, start praying the “the our Father prayer” focusing on its words, and keep your mind on them, and keep doing it until the calmness comes and His love embraces your mind, read in the Bible Isaiah 41: 10,13, memorize it and when fear comes , read it or think it or by mouth say it aloud and He will give you His peace. I talk by my own experience. .God blessed His children and that we are . 🙏📖✝️❤️🌷

      The one thing I should have mentioned, is that as awful as panic attacks are, they can be gifts because they force you to figure out what in your life needs to change. My spouse was an alcoholic. I had a panic attack one morning and knew from others in the past, that they stopped if we address whatever needs to change in our lives. I told my spouse I had to leave if the drinking did not stop. I knew it was the cause of my panic attack. I'm female. This is my husband's account. He quit drinking as a result and lost 70 pounds and got off of all medications. On 3/2/22, he has been sober with no relapses for 10 years! God granted the miracle of his sobriety, for my faith and obedience. He had sugar cravings for a month, but no rehab. I'm trusting your testimony will be a miraculous. Without that panic attack, the alcohol would have destroyed us both. I pray this testimony is an encouragement for you. :)

A reminder of what we read in the Bible that in this world you will have trials and tribulations but be of good cheer that I have overcome the world. So it is a mandatory thing for every believer to overcome the world and not get bogged down by it by exercing the faith.

    There are many narcissistic, abusive people in my life right now that are constantly trying to affect my life negatively. I have tried my best to be silent in response to their bullying but they have continued to do things to try and harm me and even try to provoke me to the point of purposely orchestrating situations where they can be in the same room with me or force me into conversations with them when I have made it clear that I do not want to be in contact with them anymore.
    They have taken advantage of certain situations in my life or mistakes that I have made and tried to blackmail me into not defending myself from their harassment or telling other people what they are doing to me. In the process of trying to harm me, they have also done hurtful things to other people as well. I am so tired of it. This has been going on for years.

    Eternal Sisters and Brothers, my question is not suffering, but why some lives are full of suffering for many consecutive years... if not a lifetime. I don't understand and simultaneously I am afraid to ask and be punished further. Some of us, in essence, suffer from birth with multiple forms of suffering.
    It's not anger. I'm not feeling angry... it is never knowing why, which causes extreme mental and physical exhaustion. Lord, forgive me -for I know you love me.

    We live in a fallen universe. Bad things happen because of sin, sin brings more sin and ultimately ends in death, death of indidvuals, death of families, death of cultrures/nations.

    "Understanding Suffering: Dealing with Difficult Problems with R.C. Sproul"
    Kind belated Sir...I commend you, for you are one of the few pastors that understands: that when we get saved (Born Again); we are NOT going to have much better than it was already.
    And the simple reason is this: From birth to death; we ALL sin and sins abominably, regardless. Thus God (who IS Jesus) Punishes us for EVERY Sin X 7. But Jesus X 70 if it's abominable!
    And that is what causes EVERY "tear, sorrow, pain and finally Death"! For the wages (all of our sins) is why we die. From Creation to the END of the World. However, Jesus blesses us untold; for every good deed! Believe it or not.
    ...In any case Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!

    To say that we are upheld in the arena of pain is false. In fact part of our very soul is destroyed through suffering. Our spirit is broken and we become as living death.

      Turn to God and put your trust in The Lord Jesus Christ and you won't have to worry about a "part of your soul" being destroyed since it will be completely and eternally saved.

      I turned to God 15 years ago. God is now like an enemy. He is impossible to love. He no longer hears prayer.

      Pain makes us face our own sin (including the consequences) and then choose to accept what Jesus has done on the cross or not. Want to keep doing it our way - pride - fall... or be born again and truly see everything spiritually - salvation - loving Father - eternal life. Jesus is the way, the truth and the LIFE who has come to restore us back to who we are created to be ❤
      Jesus changed my life - my heart. God bless you💕

      You speak not by experience but simply what you think is true, but it's not a reality.

    I like R.C. Sproul but he is wrong about stoicism. Jesus was the greatest stoic.

    Should we be glad that God hates our life more than we do? This is hardly convincing of Gods "love" if he wants to make us suffer more than what our minds are ready to comprehend. How convenient that to say that suffering is for our "good" yet never in all scripture nor in life's experience do we see thee benefit of it.

      Romans 5:3-4 We can rejoice in our sufferings and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.
