Pushing Forward Through the Trial!
Mike Fritscher

– Hebrews 12:1-4

And we are to run the race …
1. With Endurance!
2. And Our Eyes On the Prize!
3. We Fix Our Eyes On Our Great Example!

Facing Trials! James 1:2-8

1. Face Trials With Joy!

2. Knowing What The Trial Produces!

• 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

• Like Christ! Romans 8:28-37

John 16:33 "These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."

3. Ask For Wisdom! James 1:4

1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. 8 Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world. 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you. 11 To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.
