Topic Review: Why do we suffer tribulations?

‎Believers are bound to go through persecution and trials of life, but with the Holy Spirit, we have a survival strategy. The Holy Spirit plays a role in Decision making in every matter that pertains in the life of a Believer.
‎
‎This was not emotional impulse or human doing; it was spirit-directed separation. There was the period the church was facing persecution, but in the midst of their circumstances the Holy Spirit had something to say to them.
‎
‎We also may hear what God is saying to us when we are going through one manner of persecution or the other. It is left for us to be attentive spiritually so we can discern what The holy spirit is trying to pass across to us.
‎
‎The holy spirit still speaks to people today. He guides, He warns, He instructs, and He separates. When He speaks, obedience saves us from years of regret, wasted effort, and unnecessary pain.
