Disappointed hopes 1
In the day of adversity consider.
[Ec7:14]
If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small. ■ Look. I have refined you, but not with silver. I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction. ■ We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
[Pr24:10 | Isa48:10 | Ac14:22]
Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines. the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat. the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the Lord. I will joy in the God of my salvation.
[Hab3:17-18]
Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
[2Co1:3-4]
We glory in tribulations also. ■ I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. ■ Your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
[Ro5:3 | Php4:11 | Joh16:20]
