How NOT to give up, when problems and trials are all around II
In order for us not to give up when dealing with hardships and challenges we must know that problems are a common thing and a part of life.

1) Входите через дверь и оставайтесь в Божьем присутствии.
Мы должны приходить перед Отцом посредством Крови Иисуса Христа.
«Итак, братия, имея дерзновение входить во святилище посредством Крови Иисуса Христа, путем новым и живым, который Он вновь открыл нам через завесу, то есть плоть Свою, и имея великого Священника над домом Божиим, да приступаем с искренним сердцем, с полною верою, кроплением очистив сердца от порочной совести, и омыв тело водою чистою». (Евреям 10:19-22).
Мы можем благодарить Бога за то, что нам открыты Его дела и Его чудеса. Мы уже сейчас можем видеть и демонстрировать дела Божьи в своей жизни.
Мы должны стать как дети, чтобы лично переживать Бога. Когда мы начинаем спорить с Богом, думая, что мы знаем и понимаем больше, чем Бог, тогда мы становимся мудрыми в своих глазах и теряем доступ к разуму и тайнам Бога.
Talking about transformation we mean changes of our point view, changes in our hearts, in our characters and our circumstances. Any changes should take place within us first. I have to allow God to change myself and my character. Jesus said:
«There is nothing from outside of the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.» (Mark 7:15).
How do you react when you see obvious success and prosperity of those whom you call your brothers and sisters? Are you able to be happy along with them? If you are able to be happy seeing the success of others, then you will also experience success, – it is one of God’s spiritual laws.
Transformed people treat others the way Jesus did. We all need transformation, therefore, God uses relationships and different trials to accomplish this task in each of us.
Today many people mostly emphasize different manifestations, anointing, gifts, talents and personal development. All of these things are important. But if we neglect the development of God’s character in us and do not make it a priority, if we forget to draw near to God and fellowship with Him, then we are doing not the will of God, but instead carrying out our own will. And as a result we are not able to bring glory to God.
But it is also important to note that we reap a lot more than we sow. Without sowing we don’t reap at all. If you want to become great and bring fruit in the kingdom of God, if you desire for your life to have godly influence over other people, then you have to sow your life into others. There are no short cuts to greatness and true influence. It would be foolish to expect greatness, multiplication and fruitfulness without sowing. That would be deception!
In one of his psalms David talks about a day in the life of a person that has repented of all of his sins before God. We can see the advantages of that kind of lifestyle.
«Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit!» (Psalms, 32:1-2)
