Pray for suffering

When you pray for another, pray that they will have endurance for the pain of suffering caused by the evil one, if they have given up all idols. Do not pray that the ones who suffer from losing their idols would regain the idols.  Pray that My Will is done instead. James 1:2-4 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. Romans 5:3-4 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. Hebrews 12:6 The Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.

Only the Weak

The more independent you are, the farther you are walking away from Me. Only the weak are close enough to Me to lean upon My Arm, feel My warmth, hear My gentle Voice, see Me smiling on them, and feel My Love flowing through them. Only the most humble and weak have the pleasure of experiencing My Arms lifting them and carrying them through their days on Earth. The strong and independent ones miss out on so much. 2 Corinthians 2:9 But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me. 10 That is why, for the sake of Christ, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. Matthew 11:28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 2 Corinthians 13:9 In fact, we rejoice when we are weak but you are strong, and our prayer is for your perfection. 2 Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5 For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
