Sermons About Persecution
God Works in a Mysterious Way
In difficult times I can often seem like God has abandoned or forgotten us. Paul addresses this in his letter to the Philippians as they endured hardship. First, the pattern for their lives is found in Jesus. His life was marked by humility, obedience and suffering followed by exaltation. We work out the deliverance from our harships because God is at work in us, energizing us to will & act according to His purpose of glorifying Jesus.
