Here are the author's notes from this week's message: Suffering in God’s Kingdom Pt. 5 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.1 Peter 5:10 (KJV)*- The purpose of suffering was never about what caused it or when it would end. Its true purpose has always been to refine and make us better. 36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. 42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.Matthew 26:36-39, 42, 44 KJV*- For many of us, suffering begins in the mind—anticipating the suffering we must face.*- How can we recognize when our suffering has ended? Is it when the situation resolves, a financial breakthrough occurs, or a perfect opportunity arises?*- We know our suffering is over when we have been perfected, established, strengthened, and settled—just as Jesus was. *- Has a recent situation tested and revealed your level of settlement? The other three qualities—perfection, establishment, and strength—lead to settlement in areas where God is preparing to build.*- Ultimately, after enduring suffering successfully, we will say: “God has properly adjusted me to be firmly planted to endure tension so I can be a strong and solid foundation for Him to build upon.”*- God only allows our suffering for a short while because once He has settled us as a strong and solid foundation, He’s ready to build…*- Suffering is a sign that God is ready to build something more significant in your life. Lifework Assignment:Ask: “Father, You have prepared me for what You will build in my life soon. Instruct me to do all I need to do for this building process and to maintain what is built to Your standards.”
