Everyone experiences difficulty in life. During painful times, we may feel as though God is not blessing us. But even then, we are experiencing many of His amazing gifts, despite the fact that they might be escaping our notice.

Below are several examples of blessings we can enjoy on bright or dark days:

WE ARE GOD’S SELECTION
We are assured that our almighty God chose us before the foundation of the world(Ephesians 1:4). He predestined us to be adopted as His children (Ephesians 1:5). We can feel special and wanted because the Sovereign of the universe selected us.

SALVATION THROUGH CHRIST
Jesus provided our salvation through His death and resurrection (Ephesians 1:7). He redeemed us from sin that causes separation from God and ultimately leads to death. As a result, we receive a brand-new nature and daily forgiveness of iniquities (2 Corinthians 5:17; 1 John 1:9).

THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit resides within us. He guides, warns, and fills us so we always have access to counsel or comfort. And because He also seals us, our eternity is secure (Ephesians 1:13).

IMPERISHABLE INHERITANCE
Our Father prepares an inheritance for us that is imperishable (1 Peter 1:4). We may experience momentary troubles, but we can look forward to living eternally in God’s presence, where there is joy and no suffering.

In painful situations, you might be tempted to conclude that the Lord’s hand isn’t resting on your life. But believers have wonderful spiritual blessings at all times. Without the four permanent gifts listed above, fear and emptiness would be overwhelming. Ponder these benefits, and express gratitude, even in difficulty.

2 Corinthians 1:3
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,”

Psalms 73:17-19
“May his name endure forever; may it continue as long as the sun. Then all nations will be blessed through him, and they will call him blessed.”

Ephesians 1:3
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.”

IT IS WELL. GOD BLESS

GOD is good
