*WHY IS MY PAIN PERPETUAL?*(Series 1) *Scripture Reading:* Jeremiah 15:18 *"Why has my pain been perpetual And my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Will you indeed be to me like a deceptive brook With water that is unreliable?"*(AMP) How can we forget your Grace, goodness and mercy you have bestowed upon your children. Thank you for the gift of life and the privilege to have the awareness of what's going on around us. Thank you once again for the help release towards these series, thank you Jesus. Today by God's Grace, the Holy Spirit will be addressing an important thing in our lives and I want you to pay serious attention as we journey in these series and I pray that the good Lord will help you in Jesus Christ name. *Beloved, I want you to know that our pain is not meaningless but has a purpose. Whatsoever that happens to a man has a definite reason for it. There's nothing happened without a cause and as believers, God is always aware of your pain, hardship, sickness, delay, tribulations, storms etc.* Jeremiah in our scripture today, expressed himself to God on why he has to encounter tough situation mostly all the time in his vein life. *Every individual God used mightily throughout Scripture went through seasons of hardship. Moses had to flee his family who wanted to kill him, Elijah had people seeking his death, Queen Esther risked her life in order to save the Jewish people, Jesus’ disciples were all martyred for their commitment to Christ and our Savior was beaten and crucified for us.* In this passage, Jeremiah is complaining to God about how long he has had to face an enemy, seemingly without any help from God. He even accuses God of failing him in his time of need. Just the same way you asked and challenge God of your pain. *This must be noted, there are some pain, hardship that's divinely arranged and approved by God and in that, nothing can save a man, not even your prayer and fasting. You must go through it because it's part of your script and it can't be erase for no reason.* To be continue tomorrow morning by God's Grace. Good morning and do have a fruitful week, peace. *Prayer point:* Father, thank you for this revelation and I pray, Holy Spirit, that you give me a discerning spirit to address situations as it comes in Jesus Christ name. Amen! T.S. AFOLAYAN
