After you finish reading today’s Scriptures, come back and read the essay here to dig deeper into the ways we see this specific promise at work in our day’s reading. Then join your fellow Bible readers in the comments to reflect on and discuss what you’re learning!
When we think about God’s promises, we tend to focus on the blessings: forgiveness, mercy, and abundant life. But Jesus promised us something else as well: “You will have suffering in this world” (Jn 16:33). He knows with certainty the pain His people experience in a sin-filled world, and He experienced it Himself.
For many people, God and suffering are not compatible. If God exists, then shouldn’t suffering end now? How could a good God allow it? While there are a million ways people have tried to answer this question, we also know that the promise of suffering is not the end of the story; it comes with many more promises of His presence (Jn 16:22, 32), His victory (Jn 16:33), and His provision (Jn 16:23–24). We have Christ, the One who conquered the world, as our promised hope in suffering.

Amen ❤️
Thankful for God’s mercies. I am trusting God for mercy for my sister, Gail who is hospitalized with pneumonia and in icu.
Thank you God for your promises
I’m asking for prayer today for protection at work from the attacks of the enemy. I’m under scrutiny, and those that put me in a bad light, and those that lie. These attacks is are too from various fronts, so that I am convinced this is from not “flesh and blood, but against the rulers, authorities, against the powers of this dark world.”
Praying for you Kim. Praying you feel God’s presence keeping you safe and protected from the lies against you. Praying the Lord will give you wisdom and strength out of this storm.
Thank you
Have prayed for you right now, Kim❤️
Thank you
Praying Kim for help from heavens to turn things around
Thank you
Prayer request for my work situation
This passage always concerns me. I’ve been extremely blessed to have had such an easy life so far..full of blessings. I know that duffing will come and sometimes thinking about that causes me so much anxiety. I know that I should trust that God will bring me through it, and that he’s enough, but I’m fearful that I won’t feel like that. Lord, please help me love Christ above all else. Amen.
It wasn’t in our reading today, and I posted the whole devotional on our Facebook page… I read a devotional from Alistair Begg. Today’s focused on Exodus 12 & 13 and also 1 Thessalonians 2 and suffering. Those chapters are good reads. (All of scripture is, huh?!?!)
Afternoon, She’s.. I too have had my times of “ why God.. why this pain”. Going though the experience of your child having open heart surgery at a mere week old will do that to you. I remember sitting outside of the hospital during her procedure asking my husband “ why.. why us? “. I was reminded of Romans 5:3-5 says, “Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame”.
I think there is something beautiful that God understands we will suffer, it reminds me of his humanity in a way. HE understands us. He knows we will suffer. But we are promised so much more from our sufferings. May we always continue to share our stories of triumph in all of Gods glory
Thank you for sharing❤️
❤
I am so glad today’s devotional addresses the suffering on the journey following Christ. When we share about our suffering, it shows we trust one another with our stories, we find healing in the collective community that we are not alone, we are not unique in our suffering but the suffering is common to man. And we find strength in prayers and encouragement for one another. This verse always sends me chills and much reverence fear, “Truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master… If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they malign those of his household”. This is a reality, so heartbreaking. Also this prophetic verse, more chills for me, “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law”. I testify that this has been happening right in our family in the past ten years because of faith, and faith-based values, many conflicts and attacks. The Word of God is not fictional, it is truth. May we have the strength and the grace from on high to count it all joy during our temporary afflictions. This verse seems so impossible at times but I have to remind myself repeatedly, “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds” James 1:2. Pure joy? Perhaps only a little bit of joy, many tears, countless sighs. With God’s help, perhaps one day it will be pure joy. Joining and lifting up prayers for our dear sisters, agreeing with you for the outcomes from God, and thank you for sharing your many stories and glimpses of your journeys. You are all so strong and you teach us so much about resilience and faith. Be blessed dear sisters.

We suffer in order to grow in Christ. We learn to lean on him and to listen to him and follow his lead.
Amen
Precious sisters, I was here very early this morning and finally got back to read all your comments. They have blessed me so much! I’m very familiar with suffering in this world. I don’t know if I have mentioned this but I thought God was going to take Jack home on Sunday. That was the first time I have had to give him pain meds (other than Tylenol). He’s been better the last couple of days and I think this is the roller coaster we are going to be on until the end. Fortunately, most of the suffering is for those of us who are watching the decline. It’s hard to watch.
You are all such a blessing to me and even though I don’t comment on each of your prayer requests I assure you that I am praying over ALL of them! ❤️
Lynne, my heart joins yours on this journey. Praying for you and your family, and for Jack, whose journey, though sad and heartbreaking for those watching and to be left behind,is one the heavens and angels will be heralding.
I pray strength for you in the days to come, I pray God’s loving arms around you so tight, and I pray your heart knows God’s peace in these days. You are loved and supported here, you just need to shout..
God be with you dear heart.. we are here, praying..
Much love from across the pond..❤️❤️
Lynne it breaks my heart to know you’re walking through this. I recently just walked through this with my Dad and it was so hard to watch them decline and not be themselves anymore. You are in my prayers that the Lord will strengthen and uphold you with His righteous right hand as you go through this. Keep clinging to Jesus and His promises!
Isaiah 41:10 ❤️
Oh, Lynn. How hard it must be for you to see this decline. I continue to pray for you on a daily basis. I thought of you the other day with the title of Peace AND Rest. I am sure that is difficult for you, just about every day. Let Him hold you close every moment. ❤️
Lynne, was difficult suffering for you both and the loved ones surrounding you. Praying that Lord’s loving presence and extra measures of His love, comfort, strength and peace overflow to you all❤️
Praying dear Lynn ❤️ May the peace and comfort of God be with you and your family.
Lynne, you are ever present in my heart and prayers! I know that must have been very scary for you, Sunday! Praying God’s mercy for you and Jack, sister.
Adding my amen to each of the sentiments shared above! Hugs across the miles. ❤❤❤
Dearest Lynne, joining hands with my sisters here in heartfelt prayer for all that you and Jack are going through, praying for the Lord’s strength for you and His comfort for you both. You are so loved by us, sister ❤️
We will have suffering. We are a broken people, living in broken ways, in a world bent on adding to or encouraging our negative behaviors. But thankfully that isn’t the only part of our lives that we see, hear, feel or live. Thankfully that isn’t the only option.
God has always had a plan to bring an end to our worldly suffering and bring us back to Him in the promised land. God and Jesus have been with us since the beginning, knowing what we’d become, both the good and the bad. Thank goodness they’ve both provided an exit plan for us.
Through His love, Jesus conquered the world to save us. How can His love not be greater than the suffering we’ll endure for a short while on this earth before He welcomes us home?
Amen! ❤
Oh, Amen, Adrienne..❤️
Today the LORD has brought this verse in every Bible reading I’m doing. I was in a prayer group, the person that leads the group is a dear friend to me. She was leading the group in a different direction that was not Biblical. I spoke up and disagreed. I encouraged them to seek GOD for clarity and she didn’t take it well. I found out that many calls were had and I was put down. I am heart broken today but I count it an honor to be reminded by the LORD of His presence in my life. He overcame for me. He works in the timeline of eternity and my small present trouble is of no consequence in the perspective of eternity. Praise be to GOD!!!
Praying for discernment and revelation for your friend and those ‘choosing sides’ that God will reveal the Truth. Praying for your heart hurt, Claudia! ❤
Claudia, praying God give you peace about this here situation, and that His will be done in the rectifying and recentering of hearts and your group.
He is with you.., as are we, your sisters here..❤️
Thank you Tina. Praise God!!
Ouch. Keep discerning, sister. Hopefully the leader of this group will as well.
The LORD is always in control and uses all things for our good.
Claudia – I am sorry to hear how things turned after you spoke up, but when you witnessed things getting off track, how could you stay silent? The saying that you can’t go wrong by doing the right thing comes to mind. Praying all will do as you suggested and seek the Lord’s wisdom and guidance. ❤️
Thank you for your response. It hurts and the things being said about me hurt. I know it’s not of God. I am turning to God and giving it to Him I will not stay in a place of offense, it is His to turn this for the good for my friend and myself.
Why would we ever think that we could escape suffering in this world. Jesus didn’t. He showed us how to react and respond to it, He is our ultimate example to follow.
—
May God give His abundant grace today to any of my sisters here who are suffering at this time. He sees. He knows.
—
Love you all – be blessed today. ❤️
❤
Indeed, He sees and He knows..
Amen, Sharon..❤️
Just knowing that Jesus is with us in good and bad, is such a reassurance for me. Even though I fell on the ice and broke my wrist, the Lord is always reminding me that what I’m suffering is temporary. There are other people who suffer daily And don’t receive any relief. This all has been a good reminder for me to look for those people that I can be a comfort to and help who struggle with pain and suffering all of their lives.
God is good. He has helped me in big and small request. For example, I wear one contact for distance, and I am right handed. I had to pray and ask for wisdom how to get my contact out of my eye and back in my eye. I believe the Lord let me to look up on Google about this problem. Praise the Lord, there was an example of how to do this. After many tries, I have been able to put my contact in and take it out.
He cares about whatever we’re dealing with on any given day!
Praying for you all!
❤ Great testimony, Cheryl! Continued prayers for swift healing!
He is good..Cheryl..
.
Amen.❤️
Yes, Praise the Lord! I do the same with one contact and goodness, that would be an awkward task. Thankful for a solution.
“If God exists, then shouldn’t suffering end now?” “How could a good God allow it?”
I admit to being baffled & heart struck. Especially when I see the plight of children in war torn countries. Or those among us who are hungry, hurting, houseless. Or victims of rampant gun violence. Or caught in disastrous weather events. Or reeling in the diagnosis. The list is long.
But scripture reminds me “that’s the way of the known world”. That suffering is real. That loss is inevitable. That afflictions will fall. But as today’s writer ends: “The promise of suffering is not the end of the story”.
The promise also means we are not abandoned in grief or pain or incredulity.
He goes before, beside & after.
What kindness. What assurance.
When, as an old hymn goes,
“We take it to the Lord in prayer”.
He has got our backs GWINETH52 ❤️
.
Amen.❤️
“If God exists, then shouldn’t suffering end now?” What a question! My brain even went further to… “if God exists, why does He nominate Job for the utmost suffering?” He has his reasons, but the book of Job assures that both God and suffering can be present, and amen to “we are not abandoned in grief or pain or incredulity”, He is Emmanuel, God with us.. among it all.
Amen Mercy
❤
I’m reminded of my life verse which is Romans 8:18. “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” May we always remember that what we’re walking through is not greater than our God. He is our hope & peace through every moment!
Thanks for sharing that verse, Susan, and what it means to you (and to us)! ❤
What a great and wonderful verse to hold close..
Thank you Susan❤️
.
Keep our eyes on Jesus, He has overcome the world! Amen!

These verses remind us that believers will face issues even in their own families. We pray and long for everyone to know Jesus, especially our loved ones. It can be sticky though – what to say, how to say it, whether or when to extend an invite, are we perceived as welcoming or judgmental?
I see and have seen families divided, or restricted in church attendance- mainly where one spouse is not a believer or had a bad church experience and refuses to go to church and prohibits the rest of the family from attending. Doesn’t stop the believing altogether but is definitely a hindrance. Praying for one family now where I see this.

NATASHA R – thanks for pointing out that abundance can also apply to the amount of fruit we bear
GWINETH52 – another spiritual workout, thank you ❤️
SHARON JERSEY GIRL – praying for Jeff as he honors Matty’s wish, and for Jim and Debbie in the days & weeks ahead. Praying for healing of the hurts.

TRACI GENDRON – what a great connection with a new friend! Hope you are feeling better after the fall.

Yes, Searching, I have been in the situation you described! Definitely a stumbling block! :( Thankfully not that way anymore so there is always hope in that situation. Joining you in prayer for these sisters mentioned. ❤
Joining you, our prayer warrior, as you lead us in prayers for our dear sisters here.
God bless and keep you, Searching..
Much love.. ❤️
Sticky, indeed! ❤️
May I continue to be filled with the blessings of Your word every day. ✝️❤
Praying for all She’s, and may the Lord provide comfort or words for each of you to continue loving those around you. ❤
Thank you, Karen! I need that prayer! ❤
❤️
I have to admit…
When I saw the title “You will have suffering in this world”, I was not looking forward to reading that promise. Not. At. All.
But God…
Yep! We will have suffering.
I’ve seen it in all of my 65 years…
But I have also seen God work through it. I have come out the other side knowing Him more. Feeling His presence more. Loving Him more. Trusting Him more.
Yes, there is Joy at the end.
Great reminder as we journey through another round…
I was right there with you GramiesSue!Thankful that there is always room for more: “feeling His Presence, loving Him, trusting Him” … Continued prayers! ❤
Much love..❤️
There is certainly no shortage of suffering in our lives and around us. The heartache many times is crippling and unimaginable. I can not begin to understand how people walk through suffering without the Lord. And, in the human understanding and a secular mindset it seems wrong and many would even say cruel, that God would allow such a thing. But, we know the bigger story, that this suffering of the world is not the end and our Almighty Lord is our hope in it all and He walks right beside us. Psalm 91 is a precious Psalm to me when I think of God’s presence in suffering. I don’t think it would be an exaggeration to say I’ve read/listened to it on audio Bible, 1000’s of times in the last 3.5 years. The Shadow of Shaddai is a beautiful song by Aaron Shust.
Lord, you are my hope. Forgive me Father when I wrestle with your ways and doubt your promises, but also thank you Lord that you do not dismiss my lament and you hold all my tears in a bottle. Help me Lord to steadfastly cling to you, to pray without ceasing and to rest in the shadow of your wings. Thank you Lord that you ever present and near and that you are my hope. Amen
Beautiful, Wendy, thank you.
Adding my amen to that beautiful prayer! Psalm 91 has a special place in my heart, too! ❤
Yes, Wendy B!
Amen & Amen, again!
Psalm 91 is my go to as well. God reminds me by showing the time 9:11. Just when I am at my wits end, I look and see that it is 9:11.
❤. I love psalm 91.. I saw the biggest bird of prey whilst I was away this week, by the sea.. I was reminded of this special Psalm..❤
❤️✝️
♥️
“Truly I tell you.” has stuck out to me each day.
He is a God that speaks to us. His word is alive and active, for us, each day. Thankful for that this morning.
You will have suffering in this world. [in THIS world, not the next ] Not you might or you could, you will. Jesus guarantees it.
But be courageous, I have conquered the world. Past tense!
I sure don’t like the suffering part but I love the nearness of Him during. It always draws me even closer to him. He is close to the broken hearted. It’s a closeness that can’t be felt without the suffering, without the pain. It makes us stronger in Him. All my life you have been faithful! A song that brings me to tears each time. Thinking back on all that he has brought me through and walked with me through. Father you are trustworthy and faithful!
I always cry each time we sing that song at church! ❤️
It brings me to tears as well. Sometimes I can barely get the words out. ❤️
Good word, Kristy, and beautiful song reference! ❤
..with every breathe that I am able.. I will sing of the goodness of God..
Amen.❤
This reminds me of the Shack and how people say the most pure of heart get dealt the heaviest hand and suffer the most in this world. This reminds me that suffering is promised like it was promised for Christ. In that suffering comes deliverance of something greater than the person or their environment and loved ones but it’s for their loved ones. When we take on our mission we stand against everything in the nature of this world. We are not immune to suffering. Our victory, our blessings, our strength is promised in the Father and the Holy Spirit. When Jesus talked about birth being painful but then the woman forgetting her pain after rejoicing of the new life being born and how we will speak in our final hour with the Holy Spirit. It reassures me that everything is built up to the moment to fulfill our purpose and bring glory to God and bring people to his kingdom
Yes!! So good!
.❤
Wow! what a concept of suffering as one of God’s promises. Never thought about it that way. And we all have suffered in one way or another. All of us. I know not one person who has escaped suffering. Then why are we so surprised when it hits us? and why do we blame God when it comes? THE GOOD NEWS is that Jesus walks us through it, sticks with us and guides us to the joy in the end. Even if death takes us, we are still with Him. Our boasting is not in how much suffering we’ve endured, but how much Jesus has given us victory thru it.
Amen, Kris! ❤
John 16:20 “…but your sorrow will be turned into joy.”
Jesus promises suffering and sorrow but in the same sentence promises joy. So often in difficult sufferings it can be hard to see the promises of peace and joy. It can be hard to be of good cheer when you’re surrounded by suffering. But we must not allow the truths and promises of God’s word to be chained by our circumstances (2 Tim 2:9). All of God’s promises are yes and amen in all seasons of life, the good and the bad. ❤️
Lord, help me to cling to all the promises You have spoken to me in every season of life I walk through, knowing He who promised is faithful.
❤
.❤
The promise of suffering is not the end of the story. Christ is our promised hope in suffering. ❤️
.
I just finished reading A Long Obedience in the Same Direction and wanted to share an excerpt on hope and suffering from Psalm 130 that stuck with me.
.
Hoping does not mean doing nothing – it is not resignation. It means going about our assigned tasks, confident that God will provide the meaning and the conclusions. It is the opposite of desperate and panicky manipulations, of hurrying and worrying.
And hoping is not dreaming. It is not spinning an illusion or fantasy to protect us from our reality of pain or waiting. It means a confident, alert expectation that God will do what he said he will do. It is a willingness to let God do it His way and in His time. Our place in the depths of suffering is not out of bounds from God. Nothing can separate us from God. Redemption is ultimate, not suffering. Knowing that we are helped to go ahead and learn the skills of waiting, watching, and hoping by which God is given room to work out our salvation and develop our faith while we fix our attention on his ways of grace and resurrection.
.
I wait for the LORD; I wait and put my hope in his word. I wait for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning— more than watchmen for the morning. Israel, put your hope in the Lord. For there is faithful love with the LORD, and with him is redemption in abundance (Psalm 130:5-7).
Oh….thank you for sharing this Christy. ❤️
Wow! That is sooooo good!
Thanks for sharing.
❤️
Wow. Thank you for sharing that! ❤️
Thanks, Christy! ❤
“Hoping is not dreaming…”
“Let God do it His way and in His time.”
“Fix our attention on His ways of grace and resurrection.”
❤
This is so impactful Christy. I think I will pick up the book:)
Thank you for sharing this ❤️
Wonderful, Christy. So beautifully said.❤
One of things I remind my kids is that as long as we are in this world, we will have hard times. I’m thankful they are both believers and despite of our hardships they/we love Jesus as we know we are not of this world. I constantly need to remind myself that and also know Jesus’ love for me does not and will NEVER change. And trust me, I MESS UP all-the-time! Happy Thursday sweet She’s.

Eleven years ago my 62 year old mother passed away from cancer. She was a believer, my dad was not. I also was not. On my mom’s deathbed, my dad shared that at one of our last doctor’s visits, as he was looking out into the trees, he saw Jesus’s face!!! What? My dad! If my mom had told me that, I wouldn’t have believed her. But my dad! He wasn’t interested in God, didn’t go to church, nothing! It was ultimately my mom’s death that brought me to Christ and whenever I would doubt the “craziness” of this story, I would think “But my Dad saw Jesus’s face! It must be real”. I still do now when I have moments of doubt. I am quite sure if my mom had not passed and my dad did not have that experience, I would not be where I am in my faith. Oddly enough, seeing Jesus’s face did not bring my dad the comfort it brought me until shortly before his death 8 years later. He was finally able to see that Jesus was showing him that “he was with us and that we would be ok”. Now as my brother battles cancer, I can more easily remember that Jesus is with us, even when it doesn’t feel like he is. There is so much for me to do, he is going home with a feeding tube today. So many decisions about his business, his finances, his house, his daughters, etc… it can all be overwhelming. But I will try to fix my eyes on Jesus’s face.
Wow, Tami what a legacy your mom left and you continued it. AND so beautiful you dad became a believer even if it was at the end of his life. We will continue to pray for strength as you as you fix your eyes on Jesus and bring your brother and assuming his daughters home to to take care of.
Oh my! What an amazing testimony. Thank you for sharing this and how quietly and yet powerfully the Lord has worked in your family. May you and your family continue to feel the Lord’s peesence and experience His touch in your brothers life❤️
I am glad to hear that your brother is coming home. But so much to attend to! Praying for you that God will give give you strength and peace.
Tami, thank you for sharing that remarkable testimony! Prayers for wisdom and discernment as you and the family move forward with these decisions. Thankful BJ is being discharged! ❤
Thank you for sharing your testimony Tami. Our God is so good.
On Tami, this is just amazing! God is so good and he shows us,, always that he is near. Beautiful testimony. Continued prayers for your brother and the jobs ahead..
Jesus is with you. The Holy Spirit is within you. God is holding you close. Blessings and prayers for peace..❤
It’s funny how we think we shouldn’t have any suffering. Or we can play the woe is me card. We are promised suffering, wait for it,
~
BUT GOD
~
will carry us through.
YES, He will carry us through!
❤️❤️
❤
BUT GOD.. YES, my dear Traci, BUT GOD…❤❤
❤️
Thank you Lord for the reminder that you are with us in, through, and beyond our suffering.
This is so timely for our family as a member begins a battle against a frightening diagnosis. Please pray for strength, faith, and peace for him and his family (actually all of us) in these upcoming months, as well as a successful outcome from the treatments.
God provides for us in all things. In suffering, there is a special grace and kindness that
God offers us. Though I would never want to do them again, my relationship with God has grown the most during the hard times in my life. These are treasures to me. ❤️
.❤❤
Lord I’m grateful that in the midst of the storms, you are with us. We might need to look for your presence, but you are there and we aren’t alone. Amen
Thank you for giving us your word that tells us we will suffer in this world but you are with us and will carry us through. Knowing this is not our final destination.
Lord, though suffering is promised in this life, I thank You for Your constant presence with me in the midst of it. You are my strength and my peace, and I am grateful that I do not face trials alone. Thank You for the comfort of Your Spirit, for the hope You provide, and for the assurance that You are always with me. Help me to stand firm in faith, trusting in Your love and sovereignty, knowing that You have overcome the world. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Amen❤️
Key Takeaway: experiencing God’s peace in the midst of suffering comes from trusting in His sovereignty, relying on the Holy Spirit, focusing on the eternal, and committing to His mission. Jesus’ words remind us that peace is found in Him, not in our circumstances.
I need to embrace Gods purpose in my life, rely on His presence, persevere, God is sovereign.
So good, thank you!
“Embrace God’s purpose…”! ❤ Not always easy, but what we need to do. Thanks for that challenge!
Yes, Kimberly.
There will be pass in the valley.
Ooops, “peace” in the valley!
Couldn’t “pass” up the opportunity to correct myself!
Prayers please! I am a middle school teacher and learned that last night, one of my student’s mother’s passed away. She has been across the country for medical treatment and was awaiting a lung transplant. I don’t know if the 3 children who attend our school (1 elementary, 1 middle school, and 1 high school) were anticipating this in this time. Thanks .
Father, equip Becca to be “God with skin on” to offer words of comfort and help to these students who face this deep heartache. Amen.
Oh Becca, praying right now for these students right now. So sad.
How heartbreaking. Have prayed ❤️
Such sad news. Prayers for this family who are now without a mom, and for their dad.
Oh, how heartbreaking!
Praying for those children ❤️
Praying as well. So sad!
I’m so sorry! Praying for your student & their family! I still remember my teacher who helped me feel so supported when my Dad passed away. Your work is so important!!
Becca, how sad! Prayers for these children and the school staff as they minister to them (I hope!)in the days ahead. Praying for you, too! ❤
❤️❤️❤️
Praying..❤
Father forgive when I don’t thank You for the mountain tops or when I lose faith in the valleys. Holy Spirit fill me with Your presence for all my journey. Guide my children and loved ones. Let us always stand on the knowledge that the Cross has the final word. In Jesus name, Amen
Amen!
Amen
Amen!
Amen! ❤
Amen and amen!
Amen.❤
He has overcome the world. I love to think about that when I face uncertainty and anxiety. It’s already done.
Amen!
Hope in suffering – truly an upside-down kingdom concept!
.
Thankful that Holy Spirit’s presence is the guarantee of that hope.
