Trails and Difficulties…The Spiritual Defensive Backs to Your Faith
Trails and difficulties in life are sent to dislodge you from your faith in God and in His Word. In football, a defensive back has two responsibilities (1) – to prevent the receiver from catching the football. If he can’t do that (2) – to dislodge the football after the receiver catches it. Your enemy’s goal was to prevent you from hearing God’s Word. However, now that you’ve heard it (caught the ball), his job is to dislodge you from the Word. He does this through the trials and difficulties of life. Don’t fumble the ball. Hold on to God’s Word until you experience the victory that is yours in Christ.
