“Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us” (Rom. 8:37).
Our greatest spiritual victories do not always come by our being delivered from trials and adverse circumstances. Paul has been speaking of “tribulation … distress … persecution … famine … nakedness … peril [and] sword,” and he says that “in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.” Many times the Lord manifests His grace to us in and during a time of trouble, before He delivers us from it. His promise is that “he shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.” It is gloriously true that “the righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles,” and that though “many are the afflictions of the righteous … the Lord delivereth him out of them all,” yet we can also say to Him that “Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress,” and “I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place.” Many times we have to say with the psalmist, “Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept Thy word.”
“I will deliver thee,” He does declare,
This word so blessed He has spoken,
But He giveth grace in the trial itself
And stays near to the heart that is broken.
