God test us so we can walk in confidence with inner tranquility, love and ecstasy. God believes that we will win every test. God does not test us to hurt us or defeat us. He does it because He loves us too much to put us into a situation of responsibility which would be too much for us, where we would be put to disgrace. The larger the task ahead — the bigger the test required. Testing is necessary and beneficial for each one of us. It allows us to see what the real situation is and confronts us with reality.
There is a test by God for all of us in the universe. This test has been put in place by God to decide if the man will obey God or not. It is by itself very simple, but the sad truth is most do not even know that the test exists, or if they do many are not willing to take it and the ones that do mostly fail. The test is easy; however the winning of the test is not.
Now the question which was most often discussed is Does God use the devil to teach us, correct us, and control us? No – not at all. God is aware of the temptation that the devil brings against us and our choice of path. Further tempting to look away from god to something else that is contrary to what we are seeing and believing. The devil knows that if you look away from God’s Word, he can get you into his realm (physical, material realm) of authority and rule over you with fear. Instead of walking by faith, you’ll be walking by fear and all your choices and decisions that you make will be influenced by that fear instead of by faith in God and His promise. You will reap what you sow into your heart. Faith will lead you to victory and life; fear will lead you to defeat and death.
God’s tests are unusual than the temptation and trial of the devil. God’s test is whether we act on His expression, trusting Him without a doubt.
It is important that we must stand in faith, and oppose the devil and his mechanism. When you pass God’s test everything works — but not always instantly. The moment we begin to take our stand on God’s Word, the answer manifests and further constitutes the test.
The test is all about choices. God will watch the choices a man makes. How the man does on the test is strictly up to him. This test is all about TRUST. Who is the man going to hope with his life? Himself or God? The choice is between man’s way or God’s way.
The questions for the test have been recognized by God. When you are in the midst of a trouble along your journey through life, will you look towards God with all your heart for your answer, or will you look to yourself and the world to obtain your answer. God will observe you in the time of crisis. Who do you seek first? Who do you hastily run to first? To pass God’s test you must choose Him first! If you do seek God first, then will you go and do what God says or will you choose another way?”
God’s way may look firm and illogical but that’s only because it is unknown.The world’s way may make sense and be very sensible only because that is the known way. The test is, “will you go and do what God has said”, for if you do this will be right in God’s view, for God will see your heart, that you are truly trusting Him with your life and because you have chosen God over yourself He will reward you by pouring out blessings upon you which is nothing but the direct response to the issue that stands before you. This is Gods reward to the ones who pass the test where God Himself becomes your Healer. This is His promise to you.
God requires you to take the test more than once, and you’ll have to pass it each time to receive His reward for your success. Each new issue of life comes with its own test; however, it gets easier to pass every time you take it because your confidence and trust in God keeps growing. God keeps getting bigger in your sight and the issues of life keep getting smaller.
God indeed makes it easier and easier as we walk his path as he wants us to pass in His Test. However the choice to walk the path and look at it to find God’s way out of the situation that stands before us is purely the individual’s decision. There is no force on this whatsoever.
That’s the test in a nut shell. Are you willing to take the test? Are you willing to pass the test? Maybe this will encourage you to be on Gods path for the eyes of Allah search back and forth across the whole globe looking for people whose hearts are loyal toward Him, and He can show His great power in helping them”.
If you’ve never taken this test than do it. If you’ve taken this test and failed, take it again, as many times as it takes, pass it, and receive God’s reward for doing it His way. Once you’ve passed this test, keep on taking it and pass it each time knowing that God is faithful to His Word and He will never let you down when you do it His way, that His promise to you.
In fact, all of this life is a test. Learning and growth involves testing. Testing lets you know how you are doing. If you are not doing so well, turn to God, asking for His help. Spend more time in God’s Word and in prayer. Remember that God is for you — He is on your side.
