Pure Glory

by Hazel Straub

How many times has the difficulty of the journey seemed too much? You wanted the hardness and difficulties to end, so you could live an easier life without the hardship, disappointments and rejection. When you cried to the Lord for relief, he told you that he wasn’t delivering you from the what you were going through but he would stay and go with you through it. This experience was hard but you triumphed, dying to your fleshly self, living through Jesus and his blood and grew through the trial.

Little did you know, your test became your testimony for others that were struggling. You blazed a trail that gave hope and encouragement to many. Your overcoming witness helped encourage them in their struggles. The life and light of one who overcomes has power to infuse the same into others. You are powerful because you haven’t quit! The blood of Jesus causes the enemy to flee and for you to overcome.

Salvation and power are established!
Kingdom of our God, authority of his Messiah!
The Accuser of our brothers and sisters thrown out,
who accused them day and night before God.
They defeated him through the blood of the Lamb
and the bold word of their witness.
They weren’t in love with themselves;
they were willing to die for Christ. (Revelation 12:10-11 MSG)
