Praise!
My dear beloved Youth in Christ,

'Satan replied to the LORD, “Yes, but Job has good reason to fear God. You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have made him prosper in everything he does. Look how rich he is!”
— Job 1:9-10 NLT

Satan accurately analyzed why many people trust God. They are fair-weather believers, following God only when everything is going well or for what they can get. Adversity destroys this kind of superficial faith. But adversity strengthens real faith by causing believers to dig their roots deeper into God in order to withstand storms.

How deep does your faith go? Put the roots of your faith down deep into God so that you can withstand any storm you may face.

Lord,
In the face of temptation, grant me strength and steadfastness. Help me to stand firm in Your truth and resist anything that draws me away from You. Fill my heart with Your Spirit, that I may choose righteousness and remain faithful to You in all circumstances.
In Your Holy Name, Amen.
Jesus loves you!
