Daily Prayer for August 17th, 2018  

HaPpy Friday, God—thank You! 🙂

Let me consider it pure joy whenever I face trials, as I know that the testing of my faith produces perseverance. Give me wisdom, without finding fault—faith without a doubt. In Jesus name. Amen.

James 1 New International Version (NIV)

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,

To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations:

Greetings.

Trials and Temptations

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.
