They are Satan's greatest weapons that can destroy our faith. If God loves us so much, why do we suffer? Can good come from our suffering? Does our pain help us get to heaven? Find out how to overcome Satan and endure suffering with God's help.
Book Excerpt
Our Stronghold in Prayer: A Women's Class Book and Prayer Journal
How does suffering make us better Christians? When we have overcome trials and temptations with the help of God, we are able to help and comfort others who are undergoing troubles (2 Cor. 1:3). Suffering increases our faith by bringing us closer to God, and we learn to rely on Him and not ourselves. Our suffering provides a way for us to testify to others of our faith and belief in the hope of heaven and the resurrection and to encourage them.
