When Faith Fades away...or Temporary Spiritual blindness

When Faith fades away...or Temporary Spiritual blindness

The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence His soul hateth. Psalm 11:5


        There are two types of exams that God deals with His Children in order to upgrade  their spiritual levels....Testings and Temptations which He allowed to see whether His Children are faithful to Him or not...in this page we are going to deals with what is meant by "temporary spiritual blindness"
      It is of all things most strange that He who knows us so intimately should yet subject us to trial, as though to discover the quality of our faith and steadfastness. That He does so, however, is the common experience of His Children, and since He is the God of all love, we conclude that this His ministry of test is for our immediate and ultimate good.
      Or they may be good, faithful Christians whom the Lord has simply smitten with temporary spiritual blindness to test us. He may have shut their eyes to the things He is revealing to us to see if we will press on with determination when our Christian friends fail to stand with us. "God left him, to try him, that He might know all that was in his heart" 2 Chronicles 32:31b.
      This is what the temporary spiritual blindness means, in the which most of the Christians fails to recognized and deviated from the faith, not knowing the Lord has put them into the Test just to tried them. But this is not seems to happened to every believers... but to some whom God is putting big task with special mission to accomplished with,,,this can also be called "Faith Trial" in 1 Peter 4:12-13 "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, in as much as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings: that, when His glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy".
     Billy Graham was also tested while he was studying God's Words in his early 20's. His friend became Atheist but he never gave up, in that he challenged God...and God answered Billy and he became legendary Preacher of the Word of God and most famous Evangelist in 20th Century.
      Every Men and Women of God was tested and they overcame by God's grace...so here is my conclusion to all of us..that whatever we faced we have to be strong in the Lord even in the "temporary spiritual blindness" so when it is all over God is going to use us Greatly for His Kingdom...The Lord bless you...and make you clear...
