Go into the land series - Can God trust you with pain? Pain is a part of progress, it's inevitable. Jesus endured the cross so that we can live free in Him. Job endured suffering and God was glorified. What is the level of your pain threshold? Can you handle the anointing? Can God trust you with pain? Psalms 30 -NIV“I will exalt you, Lord, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me. You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit.Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people; praise his holy name. For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. When I felt secure, I said, “I will never be shaken.” Lord, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed. To you, Lord, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy: “What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness? Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me; Lord, be my help.” You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.”https://www.bible.com/111/psa.30.1-12.nivhttps://www.instagram.com/prayerclosetpodcast/List of Kingdom Resources: Life Church - Pastor Craig Groeschel - https://live.life.churchhttps://www.youversion.com/the-bible-app/Love and Faith World Outreach Ministry ( Guyana) - Apostel Claude Brooks https://www.facebook.com/loveandfaithguyPrayer Requesthttps://www.life.church/prayer

Healthy relationships start with a healthy mind, and a healthy mind needs time to be filled up. Filled-up moments are critical, and it's often overlooked and replaced for activities that leave us depleted. God allow pegs and beams to be established in your life to expand your influence on the earth. Like a tent, we all need pegs to hold down the tent and beams to erect it. A tent is not established without these items, and there will always be more pegs in your life than beams. The expansion of your influence depends on how you handle your filled and poured out moments, and the pegs and beams God place in your life.
