Also Consider This
This is a great truth for believers of all times. God has a plan for each of us and the plan is victorious living, regardless of the circumstances of life or the attacks of the enemy.

Living for God is not always easy, and it is very costly, but as Paul said,
Philippians 1:18-24
18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

*21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.*

22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

God has plans for His children. God has victory for His children. God has eternal joy, peace, love for His children.
