(Act 17:11) And these were more noble than those of Thessalonica, in that they received the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily to see if those things were so.
There are periods of our life when we face various trials and tribulations. You may be suffering from an illness, family matters, financial problems, trouble on your job or just struggling to make the right decision. While you’re waiting for God to come through in a mighty way to deliver you from whatever. What better time than now to get into studying God’s word. As you study God’s word you’ll find that the scriptures are full of stories of real people who had real problems and God delivered them from those problems.
In our scripture text the people received the Word with all readiness of mind then after receiving the Word searched the Scriptures daily to see if those things were so. Scripture can always be applied so many different ways in our lives. With that in mind whenever you get any type of news be it good or bad. Why not get into the Word in order to see what you can find that might relate to your situation. God may and often does speak to our situations via his Word. Personally, various scriptures always come to mind as I face various situations in life. When I’m having a trying day and not feeling up to the tasks of the day (Php 4:13) I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. As I deal with health issues (Psalms 34:19) Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Jehovah delivers him out of them all. This verse comforts as well as reminds me that my healing is guaranteed via God’s Word.
No matter what you’re facing in life just hold on to the promises of God’s Word. He Loves you and he cares for you. Your deliverance is on the way it may be soon or yet a ways off. Don’t lose heart don’t give up (Psalms 30:5) For His anger is only a moment; in His favor is life. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. You may have done something wrong even wronged someone else. God wants to forgive you make things right with whomever you’ve wronged. Be patient and Wait God is going to Bless You.
