Daily Devotional, Year 3 – January 10 (This is a test, Part 2: Women pastors & other similar tests in the Bible)
.
God tests people. From the very first test back in the garden, God tests people.
.
Oh yes, there is coming a day in which the Lord will no longer test His tried and true sons and daughters
.
But for now, we must endure the various tests which come our way.
.
Those who are God’s Elect
.
16:4 Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.
.
Listen to the Book of Job…”What is man, that Thou (God) shouldest magnify him? and that Thou shouldest set thine heart upon him? And that Thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?” Job 7:17, 18
.
So here is seen that, not only does God test people, but our infinite God tries each human “every moment”!
.
The Bible is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart…”For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12
.
Here above the Lord reveals that His Word discovers what’s in a person’s heart.
.
One way in which this is accomplished is through various tests which God has placed in His Word.
.
8:2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, [and] to prove thee, to know what [was] in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.” Deuteronomy
