It is the test before the testimony



Job 2:3-7 (NLT) Then the LORD asked Satan, “Have you noticed my servant Job? He is the finest man in all the earth. He is blameless—a man of complete integrity. He fears God and stays away from evil. And he has maintained his integrity, even though you urged me to harm him without cause.”
Satan replied to the LORD, “Skin for skin! A man will give up everything he has to save his life. But reach out and take away his health and he will surely curse you to your face!”
“All right, do with him as you please,” the LORD said to Satan. “But spare his life.” So Satan left the LORD’s presence, and he struck Job with terrible boils from head to foot.

Beloved, that trouble you are going through is not to kill you, it is God bragging on you, it is God showing the world that there are some people who will serve Him and love Him no matter what they go through.

Right in the middle of that problem, people are observing your disposition; they want to know if you are truly a child of God, they want to see if your faith will hold in the middle of the storm. They want to see if you will be depressed or if words of faith will stop coming out of your mouth. It is a test, it is a test! Make sure you pass with flying colours.

Just like God bragged on Job, God has bragged on you, all the hosts of heaven are proud of you. Don't think about everything you have lost, in the end, God gave Job double of everything he had before and then He gave him long life such that Job saw his great grandchildren.
God will restore you, this is not the time to get discouraged, this is the time to worship and to prove to the devil that it doesn't matter what he throws at you, you will not turn your back on God. Your best days are ahead of you; your results will cancel all insults in Jesus name.
