James 1:2-3 King James Version – 2 my brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
Count it all joy; joy is one of the things that hold the believer in a good standing with the Lord.
The scripture below is the response of our Lord and Master Christ Jesus when Peter pulled out a knife to cut the ear of someone for His sake.
Matthew 26:53 King James Version – Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
We established from the scriptures yesterday that we will equally go through that which our Lord Christ Jesus also went through; yes we are going to be tempted at all cost, but our response and reactions will show that if indeed of a truth we count in all joy when we enter temptations.
Students are not only to pay fees but also to pay attention after the fees is paid so they will be able to attain what they paid the fees for. Now the prove that the student really paid attention in class is when he or she passes the exams or texts set for him or her.
It is the same format our God uses, this is why He tells us to count it all joy when and if we fall into temptation because the prepared student will always be happy when exams or texts are coming on his or her way.
Declaration
In the Name of Jesus, the joy of the Lord is my strength, I rejoice when I see any kind of temptation because I know my redeemer lives, hallelujah!
