The Gateway to Discovery

By John Hagee

The Gateway to Discovery
John Hagee
Trouble doesn’t feel like a blessing—but in the Kingdom of God, it is the gateway to discovering His power. You can’t know Him as your Healer unless you've been sick and cried out for healing. You can't see Him as your Provider unless you've faced lack and trusted Him to supply. The valley of hardship is not your end—it’s your introduction to the God who parts seas, breaks chains, restores dreams, and answers desperate prayers.
 
When you find yourself surrounded by chaos, suffering, or loneliness, remember this: you are perfectly positioned to experience God's glory. He walks with you through the valley of the shadow of death. He brings comfort in sorrow, hope in despair, and victory where defeat seemed certain. The greater your trouble, the greater the testimony. You will discover that He is the Shepherd who leads, the Rock who defends, and the Friend who sticks closer than a brother.
