Message Summary

No matter what problem or trial we may be facing, God is always able to bring healing, hope, restoration, or whatever else we might need. And while He won’t always deliver us from our trials, He’s always with us in our trials. We know that when our faith has been tested, it can be trusted.

Key Scripture

These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold— though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. ...
1 Peter 1:7 NLT

“If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God whom we serve is able to save us. He will rescue us from your power, Your Majesty. But even if he doesn’t, we want to make it clear to you, Your Majesty, that we will never serve your gods or worship the gold statue you have set up.”
Daniel 3:17-18 NLT
