Rules Of A Godly Life: Part 1: Rule 10

"In tribulation be patient and humble yourself under the mighty hand of God, with these thoughts foremost in your mind: first, that it is God who chasteneth; second, it is for your good; third, God will ease the burden; forth, He will give you strength to endure; fifth, He will deliver from affliction at an expedient time."





Some supporting scriptures:


Luke 14:11 KJV "For whosoever exaltheth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted."


Phillipians 2:5-11 KJV "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:  Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
