Bible Note: Luke 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: It is interesting that most of us conclude that what satan wants to do is a bad thing. I find myself continually being sifted by the trials and tribulations that come my way almost daily. Sifting in Jesus time was the term used for separating the grain from the chaff and stubble. What remained after sifting was the pure grain. satan had requested to sift Peter just as he had requested to sift Job. Job had to go it alone BUT Peter had Jesus. Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Here is an example of being covered by the prayer of Jesus. Did Peter pass the test? Was he found of faith after he was sifted? How about you? And when Peter was converted did he not strengthen the brethren? How about you? Are you found faithful after the siftings? |
