The LORD tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates – Psalm 11:5
What is your attitude when it comes to tests? The bible tells us that Jesus was led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be tempted (Matthew 4:1). After passing the final tests, the bible tells us that Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit (Luke 4:14) to begin His earthly ministry. This tells us that tests are often designed by God as opportunities to step into the destiny that God has for us. For the righteous, tests are opportunities for promotion. Thus, we see that God tests us not to punish us for something we have done wrong, but to promote us so that we can do what He wants done right. That God is testing you means that He has called you do something great. Therefore, you should consider being tested as an honor and a privilege that the wicked do not experience. You are being tested because He has great plans for you and has chosen you for greatness. Like Jesus, be sure you stay ready for the tests so you can pass them with flying colors. Your future, and the fate of others may very well depend on it.
If God chooses to have me tested, it is because He has great plans for me
