The Storms of Life: God’s Purpose - Radio Classic - Dr. Charles Stanley

We all go through storms in life and we may not know why or what purpose they serve. However, when we look back through the Old and New Testament, we see God building great character in His servants by allowing them to go through such storms. God always has a purpose, and it is always for good!

    I pray to Lord Jesus Christ to lift me up from despair. At 72 I'm now homeless in my car, but I also thanked him for putting me where I was. I continue to pray for His grace to lift me out of this situation. Thank you Jesus 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    @@pilgriminprogress6668 thank you so much. I was chased out of my home of 7 years because they wanted more money for rent, actually $2,600 more and I couldn't come even close to that. Living on $1,345 mo takes everything to just survive, and when I put my things in storage I couldn't afford the monthly payments and in order to keep my few things I have to pay them 500$. But God has me. I consider myself blessed to be able to have shelter of a car and a few belongings. AMEN thank you Jesus Christ

    Very interesting....the Apostle Paul didn't have any rest period..he was behead by Nero and that was the end.. But, now he is in the Sunshine..... In God's Kingdom of His beloved Son.. Enjoying enternal bliss and many many good things after his looong suffering here on earth. He said his afflictions were light and momentary compared to the eternal glories that is producing in him...😢😮😅🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 "You must go through many hardships to enter the Kingdom of God."😮😢😢😢😢😢😅😅❤❤❤❤❤😂Finally, my brothers and sisters, all pain and suffering is gone.. HALLELUJAH!! HOME at last...🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

    I am really appreciate for your ministry, pastor. I am a native Japanese male who live in Osaka, Japan. I am 46 years old and am an Evangelical Christian because of my biological father who was a Christian pastor in Osaka, Japan until Dec. 2001. He went to be with a Lord by a terminal cancer. He was a first foreign student at a Dallas Theological Seminary in the US from 1965 to 1970. −ーーー I WAS ALSO BEEN TO THE US FOR MY STUDIRS at a high school and a Bible College in Fl.

    One day, in and out, but a LIFETIME of serious health issues and suffering. I had mine removed as an emergency. #1 Biggest regret of my ENTIRE life. It is a VERY important organ that God created for very VERY important functions. And it is possible to flush it out using the liver/gallbladder flush and restore it. Wish I knew it ahead of time. 😢🥺 I hate my life without this organ and all the suffering I deal with. Do Your Research FIRST.

    I testified earlier how the Lord healed my depression of 18 years on the night of Sunday morning church at Jakarta. However, post recovery from my depression, I suffered from 'stiff neck' where my body postur isn't alligned. It wasn't until a month or 2, when I move to Melbourne, that my neck gets better. It is not 100% recovered yet, but much better. What I want to share is for those sick & praying for His healing, some time there is a time lag or gap after The Lord Jesus' first touch. You have to have faith that He is good & want to heal you. God is not constrained by time. So when He start, he already finish. Means: He Will finish what He starts. Have hope in Him and have a blessed Sunday. Jesus love you.

    Proverbs 12:25 New King James Version 25 Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad. I was delivered from anxiety and depression. The Lord is the Great Physician & healer, Jesus is the way maker!! 1 JOHN 4 : 3 (KJV) And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: Thank You Dear Lord Jesus for helping a sinner like me, delivering me from darkness, I Praise You Dear HEAVENLY FATHER GOD in Jesus name & I Glorify YOU in all Jesus does for me!!!!!!! 1 CORINTHIANS 10 : 13. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
