Burden is the heaviness of the heart due to things happened to you.
Bridge that GOD build for me to deepen our personal relationship with Him.
2 Corinthians 12:7-10
7And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8For this thing I besought the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
9And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather boast in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
The foundations of the bridge are that;
Psalm 103:19
19The LORD has prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom rules over all.
Romans 8:28
28And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
*He learned to be content in the mist of the adversity
Philippians 4:11
11I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.
Apostle Paul learned that we experience GOD’s super strength when we are weak. It is the life of LORD Jesus when we think we cannot handle it LORD Jesus energies and strengthens us.
*He learned the source of all our sufficiency is in Christ.
*He could trust in faithfulness of GOD. GOD will supply my needs and I am sufficient to face any adversity in my life.
*He learned GOD valued his service. I learned GOD’s perspective. He knows exactly what it takes to bring me in an intimate relationship with Him. GOD desires to bring us to intimate relationship with Him, He will overlook our desires in order to bring us to service.
GOD sees the potential in us. GOD says you are more valuable to Me and I know what it takes to equip you to become the man that I want you to be. All the adversities you are going through will contribute to understand our relationship with GOD. Adversity sometime is a blessing, gift to equip us to do what GOD called us to do.
One of His ways is that He uses adversity is to grow us up, to equip us, to drive us to Himself, He makes greatest servants out of hardship and suffering. You learn how good GOD is when the bottom drops out and you have no one to turn to and then He shows up.
