CHILD-FRIENDLY TEST BIRTHS TESTIMONY!

Psalm 71:15-16 GNT

I will tell of your goodness; all day long I will speak of your salvation, though it is more than I can understand. [16] I will go in the strength of the LORD God; I will proclaim your goodness, yours alone.

 

What Does This Mean?

Tests are not punishments—they are chances to grow and learn about God! Without tests, there can be no testimonies. A testimony is a story of what God has done for you.

When we face hard times, God is teaching us to trust Him. Revelation 14:12 says we should keep obeying God and stay strong in faith. Every testimony gives glory to God, not us.

Memory verse: Psalm 119:2 “Happy are those who follow his commands, who obey him with all their heart.

In the Bible:

·       Noah trusted God and was saved from the flood.

·       Joseph went through many tests but became a leader in Egypt.

·       Hannah prayed for a baby and God answered her prayer (1 Samuel 1).

·       Job said, “I know my Redeemer lives” even when life was hard (Job 19:25).

These stories show that tests help us see God’s power and love. Your test today can become your testimony tomorrow!

Why Are Tests Important?

-        They help us depend on God.

-        They make us stronger in faith.

-        They give us stories to share about God’s goodness.

Your testimony is like a memorial stone—a reminder of what God has done. In the Bible, Israel gathered stones to remember God’s miracles. We can do the same by thanking God and telling others about His goodness.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

-        What hard thing have you faced that showed you God’s love?

-        How can you stay strong when life feels hard?

-        What is one testimony you can share today?

-        How will you remember God’s goodness this week?

PRAYER: Father, thank You for turning tests into testimonies. Help me trust You when life is hard and always tell others about Your goodness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Shalom!

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
