La razón por la que somos zarandeados
El Señor puede usar el proceso de zarandeo para purificar nuestra fe, posicionándonos para recibir su gracia.

Lucas 22.31-61

En el pasaje bíblico de hoy, Cristo le dice a Pedro que Satanás ha pedido permiso para zarandear a los discípulos como trigo. Parece extraño pensar que el enemigo quisiera conversar con Dios sobre las personas, pero esto es una realidad —incluso ese fue el caso de Job (Job 1.6-12). ¿Alguna vez se ha preguntado si Satanás habla de usted? Podemos pensar que no somos tan especiales, pero nuestro verdadero potencial nos hace importantes en el ámbito espiritual.

A menudo, suponemos que Satanás nos tienta en nuestros puntos débiles, pero también ataca donde somos fuertes. De hecho, bajamos la guardia porque tenemos confianza en nuestras fuerzas, y ahí es cuando él ataca. Considere a Pedro: se jactó de su lealtad al Señor Jesús y, sin embargo, fracasó cuando negó conocerlo. Satanás se dirige a los creyentes que tienen clara la verdad de Dios, porque ellos son su mayor amenaza.

Jesucristo comparó a los discípulos con el trigo, porque este es zarandeado o tamizado mediante una sacudida vigorosa que separa la paja del grano. Él sabe que Satanás quiere sacudir nuestra fe desde sus cimientos para que sigamos nuestro propio camino, lejos de Dios. El Señor puede usar este proceso de zarandeo para purificar nuestra fe, posicionándonos para recibir su gracia.

A psalm of David. 1  Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;    the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 2  The LORD protects and preserves them—    they are counted among the blessed in the land—    he does not give them over to the desire of their foes. 3  The LORD sustains them on their sickbed    and restores them from their bed of illness. 4  I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD;    heal me, for I have sinned against you.” 5  My enemies say of me in malice,    “When will he die and his name perish? ” 6  When one of them comes to see me,    he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander;    then he goes out and spreads it around.

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing."

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing." : Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore. Song of Songs 8:7 TPT I Hear His Whisper . . . Trust my timing.   The days of completion are mine, not yours. I will complete my work in you in my perfect timing. Even as my ways are perfect, so my timing is perfect. For you have said, "It seems I am standing still and going nowhere." But I say over you, I am unfolding my glory upon you even as you wait on me. I will make it happen and will show you my perfection. What often feels like an endless season of waiting is often a time of preparation. You must believe in things you cannot see. You must trust that even when things seem silent, I am working on your behalf
