When we go through trials we end up stronger than ever in our faith

Dr. Roberto Miranda

(Audio: Español)

RESUMEN: James teaches that those who suffer are blessed and should have patience, as trials can lead to a deeper understanding of God. Job is used as an example, as he came out of his test with a renewed perspective of God. Other biblical characters, such as Moses, Elijah, Daniel, and Esther, also went through trials but were brought out with victory and a strengthened faith. The end result of tests is positive and can lead to a new song, renewed ministry, and a settled relationship with God.

People who suffer or who are going through trials are not unfortunate or unhappy but rather fortunate, blessed and can even rejoice in the trials they are going through.

The apostle James says: "Behold, we count those who suffer blessed. You have heard of Job's patience and have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is very merciful and compassionate." So the apostle James is again suggesting this idea that patience must also manifest itself when we are going through situations of tribulation, anguish, and suffering and to see it rather from the perspective of the Lord, to see it from the perspective of the end of that test by which we are going through.
