“For if God has in fact willed that you should suffer, it is better that you suffer for doing what is good than for doing what is evil.”
1 Peter 3:17 CJB
When we suffer for the sake of Yeshua, we can rejoice, but when we suffer for playing the fool doing stupid things we pay for it! Suffering for God isn’t like suffering for sin! Why? Because with God we have His protection and His guidance to get us through!
“And indeed, all who want to live a godly life united with Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted, while evil people and imposters will go from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.”
2 Timothy 3:12-13 CJB
Now we need to understand there is a difference in suffering for Yeshua and serving Him and making worldly decisions for selfish reasons! If we serve Yeshua, we will have days of suffering and persecution! But when we are in His will we will always get through!
“For His anger is momentary, but His favor lasts a lifetime. Tears may linger for the night, but with dawn come cries of joy.”
Psalm 30:5 CJB
We may have all kinds of problems that we go through in life, but they never last! When we look to Adonai, He always gets us through to the next morning!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua!
