The School of Affliction

PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH & NATION:  

May you earnestly seek God in your trials (Psm 119:73-80).  #SchoolOfAffliction #SeekGodInAflictions 

MORNING WATCH NOTES:

I should be aware that others eyes are upon me. The psalmist says, “May all who fear you [God] find in me a cause for joy.” The School of Affliction may be for a time bitter. But with affliction comes the comfort of God for those who look to his word for help (Heb 12:10,11; Psm 119:50). 

In the face of trials and affliction, I will seek God in his word to surround me with his tender mercies. I may also draw strength from those godly ones around me (v79). My delight is in God‘s word and among those who fear him. Lord, may I have the good sense to seek you in my afflictions. 

One thought on “The School of Affliction

  1. Amen brother – Reminds of the verse in James chapter one that talks about letting “endurance have its perfect work, that we may be complete, lacking nothing.”
