Don’t Mistake the Fire for Failure — 1 Peter 5:10–14


When the heat turns up, it's easy to assume we've stepped out of God’s will. But what if the fire isn’t proof of failure—but of favor?


This powerful teaching from 1 Peter 5:10–14 unpacks what it means to walk through suffering without losing sight of eternal glory. You’ll discover that God is not absent in your affliction—He is present, refining, strengthening, restoring, and building you up as a living stone in His house.


If you’ve ever asked, “Why am I going through this if I’m obeying God?”—this message is for you. Learn how to stand firm in the true grace of God, gain heaven’s perspective on trials, and be reminded that even when life feels out of order, the God of all grace is putting things in place.


💬 Key Themes:

·       The true meaning of God's grace in suffering

·       Enduring trials with strength and perspective

·       God's promise to restore, steady, strengthen, and establish you

·       Walking in the footsteps of Messiah, even when it hurts


🎯 Don’t give up in the fire—God’s glory is being revealed.

Stand in it. This is the true grace of God.
