“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;”
James 1:2
The temptations will come. The word of God has never given us the idea of a challenge free life, he said for us to copy God and when he came to the earth, he didn’t live a challenge free life. He said: “Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!” Luke 17:1 It is impossible but that offences will come, so challenges will come definitely, it is what you do when the challenge comes that matters; your response in that trying situation will determine what that challenge will eventually mean to you- a woeful experience never to be remembered or an inspiring testimony to be heard by all! He told you how to consider the challenge- joy! He says count it joy, naturally you should cry when you are challenged or pressed, God has a better response- he said laugh!
