6 Steps To Take When Going Through Hard Times: Step 5

5.Rejoice
Jesus said You are the light of the world
- You must keep joy in your circumstance. People are watching you.
- One little bit of light destroys a room of darkness. Have faith of a mustard seed and you can move mountains!!!(Matthew 13:31)
- Satan knows that if you praise God, then God will dwell in the midst of you. God lives in our praise. Satan knows that there is breakthrough in your praise, victory in your praise, protection in your praise, life in your praise!So Satan tries to SupPRESS, dePRESS, and opPRESS your praise.
- You must PRESS back and praise God even when you don't understand. Like laying on the bench press bench. The weight may seen heavy and the pain unbearable, but God is your spotter. A spotter is there to help you when the weight become too much. They help lift the pressure off of you. But in the midst of the pain, know that just like with the pains of weight lifting, the pain means that those muscles are becoming stronger. You are gaining strength through this! Glory be to God!
