When life gets hard, we should remember that God disciplines (trains, develops, chastises) those He loves. In fact, God’s plan to grow us spiritually (more often than not) involves allowing us to endure painful trials. This message will help us not grow weary in the face of trials and will empower us during times of affliction.

From Series: "Hebrews - Consider Jesus"

“Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, 2 who was faithful to [God] who appointed Him.” Hebrews 3:1-2a The first century Jewish Christians suffered for their faith. In the face of their persecution, those weary Saints were tempted to abandon Christianity. The author of Hebrews wrote this expansive book to teach them why they should “Consider Jesus.” Two thousand years later, the words and truths in Hebrews are relevant for our lives today. Jesus is superior to anything we can think of. It’s important to remember the preeminence of Christ (and what it means) when we face trials and persecutions. We need to know Him. Hebrews 12:3 says, “Consider Him who endured from sinners such hostility against Himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.” Consider Jesus with us as we study the book of Hebrews.
