- One of the most common questions people ask is, “If God is a loving Father, why does He allow His children to go through painful and difficult trials?” In this sermon, Dr. Stanley explains how God uses trials to do several things including:
- Increasing our faith.
- Testing our devotion to God.
- Sanctifying us.
- Demonstrating His love and power.
- Producing a Christ-like spirit in us.
- Equipping us for a future task.
He also says there are 10 ways we can respond properly to trials in our lives. We must believe:
1. God is in control.
2. The Lord has a specific purpose for trials.
3. Our circumstances are designed to meet specific needs in our lives.
4. The trials will prove to be good if we respond in faith.
5. Difficulties can strengthen our faith.
6. God will help us demonstrate perseverance under pressure.
7. Struggles will develop Christ-likeness in us.
8. They will help us measure our spiritual walk.
9. God will be with us the entire way.
10. His grace and power will help us overcome them.
God doesn’t promise to explain everything to us. However, if we keep a godly attitude and ask for wisdom in our circumstances, we can prevail over our difficulties, gain a sense of peace, and arrive on the other side with greater faith and stronger relationship with our Heavenly Father.

Who's watching Pastor Charles in 2024? RIP, Dr. Stanley. Thank you for your teachings. To God be the glory!
I listen to Dr. CHARLES STANLEY daily.
He died April 18, 2023. His messages are very timely for us today.
@@tinalouisecraig2555Dr. Charles Stanley stepped down from being the Senior Pastor of his church and died peacefully in his sleep. His words are worth their weight in gold, more today, than ever.
Most definitely I will re-watch and give thanks for Dr. Stanley's reflections of scripture that help me understand more God's word. I know Dr. Stanley is beside the Lord Jesus interceding for us all.
@@bejoyfulDr. Stanley is definitely one of my favorite pastors, still, even after he's gone to be with the Lord. We definitely have a great intercessor for us!
He definitely had a wonderful way of explaining the gospel, think of the millions of lives this one man touched that's a great blessing and a great responsibility. I'm am sure he heard those wonderful words, well done my my good and faithful servant.
Charles Stanley is the best bible teaching teacher we have ever had and will ever have. 🥰 I love this man, he always helps me understand the word and truth. Thank you, Dr. Stanley, again and again. 🙏

I walked with The Lord over 60 years and l agree that God walked with us in all of our trials and hardships because He has Eternity in mind in forming us to be what He created us to be. When we trust in His love we believe that He causes All things to work together for our good and His Glory

I'm in the middle of a huge trial. I became suddenly bedridden 2 years ago after my car trunk came down on my head, while in perfect health. Doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong and they punctured my spine a few times, then also causing a spinal fluid leak. Now I've lost all of my health and cannot get out of bed because they can't plug the leak in my spine. I'm praying God will help me to have faith in Him. It's not easy as I've laid here for over 700 days in excruciating pain. Praying for healing! If you have the gift of faith or gifts of healings, please pray for me in Jesus' name. Thank you
Prayers for you as you are going through this health crisis & that God heals you pain.
@@judyfain3160 Thank you for praying, Judy! I really appreciate it. May God hear my cries and answer our prayers and restore me for His glory. In Jesus' name. Amen 🙏 ✝️
Praying for your miraculous healing in Jesus Name!

The state you live in and the regional hospitals may not have the best drs ,reach out to the hospitals in NYC ,unless you've tried that already, there must be some hospitals that have the drs and technology to help you ,good luck and prayers that you recover .
Pastor Stanley your teachings has inspired me in so many ways. Thank you. To God be the glory. May you RIP😢😢
No tears as he is with Jesus where we are going ❤️
Dr Charles Stanley is still alive among us through his teachings. Thank you God for your Servant Pastor Charles Stanley.
Thank You Lord for having an encouraging Pastor to help with life’s trials and making his teaching available to us all🙌🏻♥️
In times of trials we need spiritual perseverance. Often we feel our strength diminish especially if we are alone in life. When one trial is over, we need to breathe, often we are not ready to face the next trial, there are so many in a lifetime. Still we have to turn to God in our weakness with prayers and wait for the Lord's timing. Thank you Pastor Charles Stanley for exhorting us and help us to understand the will of God. We miss you but your precious teachings help us to get by. I admire your strong faith in the Lord.
Thank you Reverend Pastor Charles Stanley pray for me there in Heaven.
Praise You Christ Jesus and I thank Mary your earthly mother who was blessed to be the Mother of the Word Incarnate 🙏🏽

Thank You! Dr. Charles Stanley for this awesome 'eye opening' Sermon! I went through 3 years of life changing difficult trials since 2019. I ran to my Holy KJV Bible and just opened it up to start reading it out loud, to help me feel his Love! Mercy and Grace! Something inside my Heart, Soul and Mind became enlightened and I felt the Power 💥 of God' touch my life that day. Since then, I've stayed strong and faithful through all of my 3 full years of constant tests, difficulty and hardships and loss. I would Pray 🙏🏼 with tears flowing down my face, asking God through My Way Maker, King 👑 Jesus' to help me through The Holy Spirit 💫🕊️🙏🏼 to be Victorious over them all. I stayed in his loving arms of Peace, Tranquility, and faithfulness. I did my Holy Communion every Sunday morning 🌞 and gave him a Thankful Heart in Prayer throughout all of my trials. Now, I'm living in one of the best places in the city of Savannah, Ga it's called..The Rose Of Sharon Apts! ✨🙏🏼✨ 🌹 🕊️ A Beautiful Name of King Jesus' himself. I'm in The ❤️ Heart of Historic Downtown Savannah. My rent is just 1/3 it cost to live here and I don't pay for any utilities, except my cable provider now. Praise God' For He Is A Good Loving Father To His Faithful and Devoted Followers In Him and His Ways! Amen and Amen'😇🙏🏼✨ 🕊️ 🌹
I really enjoy Dr. Stanley's sermons because he explains Biblical Scripture in modern, practical thinking and behavior.
To bad his son is leading folks away from the truth!
SHAME SHAME!😢

Dr Charles Stanley you are God's gift to this earth.
Thank you.
I do not view love wants to test my love, as I do not want to test His love when I falling. Howbeit, this part of our relation with Him, is a temporary condition from the fall, but not of His eternal will seen in by the works of His hands in Creation process before the fall. This is resolved by John 3:16, 1 Peter 3:9, 1 John 1:9, and Romans 8:28.
So, if my affection of outlook is set towards what I will eternally function like, with reactions towards the temporary immediate based on how He responeded, then my will is surrendered unto Him being the Potter, and us becoming the unknowing before His Knowing (i.e. 1 John 2:27, John 14:26) and move our hands. God bless, Love Y'All
TBN has switched off InTouch Saturday's at 6 + 8. So, I am here. And what pops up? Trials. Thank you Jehovah for your Holy Spirit to guide me to this. I'm in a dark season now. We've all had one or many; where it's one thing then another. Sigh. This is the spiritual food via God's word and Charles breaking it down I need right now. Amen.
Thank you God for building my faith without destroying me. 🙏✝️ I want to abide with you despite how I may feel.
Father God Jesus 👑 I believe that you are with me through this storm. I believe that you are with me everyday and I put all my trust in You ♡♡♡
God sees everything 🙌 🙏
May our Loving Heavenly Father richly bless your soul now and always, Dr. Stanley, for bringing His Word, Truth and Eternal Life to us. Thank you.

Thank You Dr. Charles Stanley.
You have given me a greater understanding of the meaning of these various trials we face; that we read in James chapter 1.
And I am blessed by this message because I am facing a trial right now. My Father (Timmie), is in ICU with COVID pneumonia.
I pray that anyone reading this will be blessed by his story. Because my Daddy will not be a
statistic but will be a

And I move forward Trusting God is working in this trial for a greater purpose in my life!

Glory to Jesus, we don't know the truth until it's revealed to us
I just wrote down a prayer in a journal asking for God’s wisdom and this popped up! Praise Jesus! Thank you Charles Stanley for your bold Bible preaching! This sermon was what I needed (wisdom!)! And the prayer at the end has been my prayer for others that don’t know Jesus. Because He loves each and every one of us! Once nonbelievers put their trust in Jesus and realize it’s a real relationship with Him they’ll see He’s the real reason for living. He’s everything. He is our only hope and real joy. I praise Him for His Spirit! Even through my trials He invites me to have His peace that surpasses understanding, that strengthens my faith and endurance! I’m so confident His purposes are for my greater good even though it’s so hard. He is wonderful. He is mighty. He is lovely. Praise Your Holy name Jesus for your mercy, love and grace! In Your precious and matchless name, Amen! ❤
Thank You Dr Charles Stanley for The Sernon came in a perfect timing...Forever in My Heart and Your Spirit 🙏 RIP Dr. Charles Stanley.
God knows what I need. He sent these important sermon to give me wisdom and strength in the middle of my trials. Thank you so much Dr Charles Stanley. I value your words and teaching that I have no doubt about it. Your life is a great testimony for us.
As we listen to this wonderful sermon may we all come to the knowledge of GOD ALMIGHTY because he never fail
Frank, head knowledge of the Almighty God isn't enough. We need to have a personal relationship and personal encounter with God's Holy Spirit. And experiential knowledge in the spiritual realm. Eyes 👀 to see ears to hear. And identify the audible voice of God, or the still small voice of the Holy Spirit 🔥. Most mportantly identifying voices from our very own subconscious, God's and satan's. That is wisdom!
Amen 🎉
Thank You Jesus whenever❤️🙏🏻😍
Thank you God for everything in Jesus Amen.
Rev. Stanley has a sermon for every occasion. May the Lord continue to bless him in all ways. He delivers the message simply and directly to the heart. 💐🙏

Every single person on the face of the earth 🌎 is unique because that's how God Almighty created us. BUT, listening to the words of God gives me the greatest joy in my life on my passage in this world. Thank you pastor Stanley that God uses you to bring me closer to HIM.
True revelation of who Our Living God actually is makes a whole lot of difference in one's life.. May you encounter Jesus Christ today as you put Him first in your life. To God be the glory!
When we are able to see the growth, he is looking to achieve, knowing the end, from the beginning, and he is determined to conform us to the image of Christ. Now we can rejoice in knowing God will work all things together for good, to those that love God but even if your mad at Him, of your called according to his purpose.
I totally agree 💕🙏

May the Lord return quickly! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!
