He took every single temporal good from me. I lost my husband, my home, my bank accounts, my vehicle. Then He would not let me have a job. I sank into what would truly have been abject poverty except for the fact that mom gave me a place to stay.
All that to get me to trust Him. Praise God!!
Umm God doesn't exactly work dat way, he does chastise us as rev 3:19 states, He works in many ways, but he doesn't take away physical things from us like riches, mammon, dats most likely the devil, he deals wiv temporal things like in book of job. Gods main focus is the internal things unless its his will.
God sometimes makes us go threw physical infirmity's in order 2 strengthen us or even bless, sometimes we need 2 be brought down a peg or 2 just 2 humble ourselves, or sometimes he even lets the devil have his way with us a little again just 2 chastise us and strengthen us. chastisement builds character, had I of not been chastise I don't think I would have ever became a Christian.
Even though you started this thread, it is still a testimony thread on the Testimonial Forum. Arguments here against another person's testimony are inappropriate. What happened to @stunnedbygrace does happen to people for God's purposes. My own testimony also establishes that.Umm God doesn't exactly work dat way, he does chastise us as rev 3:19 states, He works in many ways, but he doesn't take away physical things from us like riches, mammon, dats most likely the devil, he deals wiv temporal things like in book of job.

Actually the book of Job shows us that God indeed takes things away...physical things...things we rely on so that we can cry out to Him in our need.

But if you want to argue the point please don't do it here. Start another thread on a proper forum. Thank you!
No, the forum is also for giving testimonies [not subject to debate and only minimal favorable discussion], praising God, asking for prayer, simply fellowshipping with friends and a number of other things.But we're having a discussion man and isn't dat what the whole forum is about, plus its on topic!!
