YOU MUST GO THROUGH THE PROCESS

 Hebrews 5:8-9 (NKJV) says, “Though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him.” 

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, went through a painful and difficult process. He was rejected, hated, falsely accused, betrayed, and crucified. But all of this was part of His journey to becoming the Savior of the world. It was not easy, but it was necessary.

Just like Jesus, every great man of God in the Bible went through trials before fulfilling their destiny. David was anointed king but spent years running from Saul. Abraham waited for years for the promise of a son. Elijah, after doing great miracles, was threatened, became depressed, and even wanted to die.

Hebrews 5:8 tells us that although Jesus was God’s Son, He learned obedience through suffering. That means suffering was His classroom—and it’s ours too.

In Deuteronomy 8:1-2, God says He allowed the Israelites to suffer in the wilderness to test them and to see if they would obey His commands. God uses trials to prepare us, humble us, and shape our hearts.

In Luke 22:31-32, when Satan wanted to test Peter, Jesus didn’t pray for the trial to be removed. Instead, He prayed for Peter’s faith to remain strong during the test. The goal was not to escape the suffering, but to come out of it with stronger faith.

Whatever you are going through today—pain, loss, waiting, betrayal—know that it’s part of God’s process. He is teaching you obedience, humility, and faith. Don’t give up. God will bring you out safely. And when you come out, your story will help others who are going through the same struggles.
