After a trial. When the dust has settled. When the sea is calm. When you are on the other side.
Praise God. Don’t look back.
God has obviously stretched your faith during the process. Don’t let the “elastic” go back where it was.
Forever let it change you.
As a pastor, I see so many people who praise God after the storm has passed, but then they quickly go back to their normal life. Soon, they forget the closeness they once felt to God. They forget the emotion of fear that caused them to cry out to God daily. They forget the way God delivered them from their time of need.
Has your faith been stretched?
Forever be changed. Never forget.
When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you. Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day. Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. Deuteronomy 8:10-14
When was a time God stretched your faith forever?

Deut. 8:10-14 is an excellent passage that demonstrates how we need to die to self daily and remain humble in the knowledge that God provides. It is not about us–it,s all about Jesus!

For almost the last 3 years my faith has been changed forever because of the total trust and dependency that I had to place in God in dealing with my financial and physical hardships. There is no doubt in my heart and in my mind that God has forever stretched my faith. Awesome post Bro. Ron. Thanks!
God bless you as He molds you.
