In my experience as an apprentice of Jesus, many of my greatest tests came in the wake of significant moments on my faith journey. Others would say the same. We see the same pattern in Jesus’ journey as well.
He had celebrated his baptism by John, and God released a fresh empowerment for His mission. It was a mountaintop moment. The very next event was Jesus’ formidable test in the wilderness.
If you are in a wilderness season, it’s not punishment; it’s God’s blessing. Like a master craftsman, God always qualifies His work. Your test will become your testimony. Stay the course and trust the process. - Pastor Jimmy
