Suffering of a Righteous Person Gains the Favor of God (English & Malayalam)
Manage episode 427415167 series 3507182
1st Peter 2:19, 20 – “For this finds favor, if for the sake of conscience toward God a person bears up under sorrows when suffering unjustly. For what credit is there if, when you sin and are harshly treated, you endure it with patience? But if when you do what is right and suffer for it you patiently endure it, this finds favor with God.” Please note that the 1st part is in English, and the 2nd part is in Malayalam starting at 15:50 mark.
There is no credit in front of God when we suffer as a sinner and go through harsh treatment from others. But if we are suffering patiently because of the injustice done by others, God will be in favor of us. If we do not suffer patiently, we will not get the favor of God. Some people commit suicide when they cannot take it anymore. Some people argue, fight, cut the relationship, and try to destroy the other person. Some people will go for court proceedings. Some people will cry and complain to others forever. A true child of God will suffer patiently and win the favor of God. The promises of God for our sufferings as a righteous person and some situations in the Bible where God strengthened people in their sorrows are discussed.
