Challenges are a cornerstone of faith. The Bible is filled with trials, each revealing the power of perseverance and trust in God. We see it in Moses, David, and Samson—each facing and overcoming obstacles that ultimately strengthened their relationship with the Lord. Some challenges come naturally through life’s trials, while others are self-imposed, testing our faith, discipline, and self-control. The ultimate example is Jesus, who spent 40 days in the wilderness, resisting temptation and demonstrating His unwavering commitment to God. “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control” (2 Timothy 1:7). Inspired by Jesus, why not set yourself a biblical challenge for the next 40 days? Whether it’s dedicated prayer, deeper Bible study, or acts of service, use this time to grow closer to God. Don’t let fear hold you back—God is with you, and with Him, you may achieve more than you ever imagined. Open Bible – https://bit.ly/2Ti1v7 (Jean-Luc H)
