Podcasts about tested faith

Do you feel you are being tested and find it hard to walk the razor's edge of righteousness? Welcome to the Daily Devo. I am Vince Miller. Today, we released a new episode of The Vince Miller Show, "Beliefs That Hold You Back." Check it out at the link or button below the video. This week, we are in Chapter 21 of the Daily Devo. I've titled this chapter "Man On The Run." Here is the text for today in 1 Samuel 21:1-2: Then David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech came to meet David, trembling, and said to him, "Why are you alone, and no one with you?" And David said to Ahimelech the priest, "The king has charged me with a matter and said to me, 'Let no one know anything of the matter about which I send you, and with which I have charged you.' I have made an appointment with the young men for such and such a place. — 1 Samuel 21:1-2 So, by nature, we should ask again, "What is with all the lying?" In the last chapter, David devises a plan to lie to Saul, and Jonathan tells the lie to test Saul. Here we have another instance. Before I answer your question, let me provide a little background for this moment. David runs to Nob (his next hideout from Saul) about two miles south of Ramah. Ramah is the home of Samuel, but Nob is the location of the Tabernacle, which was the Lord's temporary dwelling until Solomon built the Temple. Naioth, which is in Ramah, is an educational facility for training prophets and priests. Think of Naioth as a seminary where Samuel trained priests in his later years. One of the priests Samuel brought up and appointed was Ahimelech, who is just a mere 2 miles away in Nob. So David shows up in Nob, and Ahimelech is a little surprised. You will notice he is "trembling," probably because he has heard about the recent events with the mercenaries sent to kill David at Naioth, and the spirit of the Lord came upon them. True to form, Ahimelech is concerned and curious. And then David gives him an answer, which appears to be a lie. But I don't think David is lying. I think David means "The King" or "The Lord" when he uses the title "king" because he is standing before a priest who knows The King and King Saul's present issues. So, if you allow me a little latitude today (and this is pure speculation), if we insert this inference into the text, we might read the situation differently. So, let's reread David's statement, assuming he means "The King." "The king has charged me with a matter and said to me, 'Let no one know anything of the matter about which I send you, and with which I have charged you.' So, my guess, and it's only a guess, is that David is not lying. He stands alone before the priest, speaking of "The King," and I think Ahimelech is playing along. Based on the outcome of tomorrow's devotional and how Jesus refers to this instance in the New Testament, I think I am right. So, I think we encounter two men talking in code, trying to walk a careful socio-political and religious line while trying to keep themselves free from sin. But this is what it will be like for David for years. He is going to be challenged to walk on the razor's edge of so many matters, which we will see unfold in a variety of ways. This is one of many reasons why I think God chose David to be the second king of Israel. He was a man after God's heart, willing to be tested for years and walk the razor's edge between righteousness and unrighteousness every time. Are you being tested? Are you walking the razor's edge? If so, walk it carefully and cautiously because God might just be preparing you like he was preparing David. #TestedFaith, #WalkingInRighteousness, #FaithUnderFire Ask This: When have you felt like you were walking on the razor's edge in your faith, balancing between right and wrong? How did you navigate that moment? What steps can you take today to stay faithful to God when the pressure to compromise feels overwhelming? Do This: Submit to the test and let God prepare you. Pray This: Lord, when I feel tested and pressured to compromise, help me to walk faithfully in Your truth. Strengthen my heart to trust Your plan, even when the path feels difficult and unclear. Amen. Play This: Waiting.

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN: THE DEITY AND TEACHING OF JESUS CHRIST“Tested Faith – Trusting God in Impossible Situations”John 6:1-7 NKJVChrist's Bible Fellowship - Barrigada, Guam USASpeaker: Pastor Avery FerrerasSunday, September 29, 2024

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Donnie McClurkin dives deep into the topic of proven faith. Drawing from the Word of God, he explains how faith is not just a belief but something that must be tested through trials in order to grow. True faith is rooted in Scripture, not in personal opinions or feelings. Pastor McClurkin encourages believers to study the Bible to strengthen their faith and understand God's promises. He also discusses how faith acts as a shield, protecting us from the devil's lies, and reminds us to trust God in overcoming life's challenges. Join us as we explore the critical role of faith in the Christian walk and learn how to stand firm in God's truth.

We all know that our faith will get tested, but why does God test it? Pastor Colin talks about 3 good purposes God has in the testing.

What is faith? Pastor Colin talks about the two dimensions of faithbelief and trust.

Peter writes this letter to encourage believers who are facing religious pressures and persecutions. He explains that the various trials they are facing are important for building their faith and he exhorts them to endure hardships, to be humble in relationships, and to remember Jesus' Lordship through it all.He addresses the importance of submission and discusses doctrines such as election, sanctification, and justification.He also encourages church leaders to shepherd well, and encourages the church to support those who are leading. Ultimately, Peter reminds all believers of their heavenly inheritance and encourages them to stay the course because the trials they're facing are necessary for the establishing of A Fire-Tested Faith Attributions: Inspiring Folk by Alex Grohl URL:https://elements.envato.com/inspiring-folk-AB3KUHM License Code: RU38HZKEV9Acoustic Romantic Wedding Guitar Folk by TimCatURL:https://elements.envato.com/acoustic-romantic-wedding-guitar-folk-T9R32SQLicense Code: P73DTXQYEF

Sunday, May 26, 2024 - Daniel Ausbun preaching from 1 Peter 4:7-19; Luke 41-50 #Healing

On Sunday, May 5, 2024, Pastor Joe Troutman preached "The Testing of Your Faith" from 1 Peter 1:6-9. "You will face pain and suffering in this life, but you can rejoice in the midst of it because Jesus Christ suffered and died for you." 1. For a Little While (v. 6) 2. Genuine Faith is Tested Faith (v. 7) 3. By Faith, Not by Sight (vs. 8-9)

Faith is not perfected until its testing has produced something in us. Being created in a fallen world, God takes the just responsibility of love to be our sufficiency in all things! Since most of our pain is a thirst for God, when our faith is tested, we can live in the power of the Holy Spirit to lift us into His presence.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: In today's episode of the Daily Radio Bible, Hunter reminds us that just as the troops of Israel were ready for battle and to follow the ark of God's covenant, we too are soldiers in God's army. Sometimes, like Paul in his prison cell, we are called to stay put and endure through challenging times. It's during these times that God is doing a work in us, allowing our endurance to grow and shaping us into who He wants us to be. Hunter encourages us to embrace waiting as part of God's plan and to find joy in the opportunities for growth and transformation. He reminds us that our strength to face these challenges comes from the power of Christ within us. As we awaken to the transforming power of Christ's life in us, we can find the strength to persevere, whether it's staying put or marching forward. Let's join together in prayer, asking for God to awaken us to the life of Christ within us, and for His strength to accomplish more than we could ever imagine. Stay strong in your faith, and may you find encouragement in today's message. Blessings! TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, they kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Have you ever noticed that some type of adversity seems to pop up right after a spiritual breakthrough? This really shouldn't surprise us. Our faith is often tested after a great spiritual victory. In fact, that's exactly what happened to the disciples after Jesus fed the five thousand. Their experience teaches us a few valuable lessons for when our own faith is tested.
