Difficult times are times of trials when our faith and strength is been tested to make us strong and to also make us stand firm in the Lord. The reality is God uses trials to enhance and strengthen our faith. In this book, we are looking at some inspirational prayers that will enable us overcome difficult times. No matter how radiant and pleasant our life is, we will definitely still experience our trying moments, it is sacrosanct like the air we breath like the water we drink. So when the time comes for us to experience difficulty, how we accept the temporary moment until we see our victory at the end matters. Job experience a difficult moment, his hope and trust in God helped him conquer all.
Even Jesus felt this pain, he knew that it wasn’t going to be easy and God understood him so he sent an angel to strengthen him Luke 22:39-44, in the end, our Saviour was glorified and highly exalted. Jesus overcame, he is the image we are looking at, to be like him and before we can be transformed to that image, for that glory to also radiates in our lives we have to pass through the same process (No servant can be greater than his master) tough times do not leave a Christian bitter but makes them better because there is revelation of the joy that they will experience in the future, so we bring that joy into the present and our lives become wonder.
Joy is an acknowledgment of our victory in Christ Jesus. We may work very hard but “Blood and strength will only take us there (where we think we ought to be) but only grace and Joy through the Holy Spirit will take us further to where God wants us to be. No matter the difficulties, our victory is sure because Christ has overcome the world for us, and he will never leave you comfortless, so know this in your heart that “Even though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Saviour because the Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights so I know vividly that difficult times will never leave me bitter but make me better.

One of the greatest tragedies that can ever befall a man is the spirit of difficulty. When a person is plagued with stubborn situation, it indicates the person’s case requires prayers and deliverance. It will look as if the world should just end that very day so that he can just go and rest once and for all. Take for instance, a man who cannot provide for his family’s immediate need, is experiencing a difficult situation. A woman who is always facing challenges of marriage, she’s also struggling in that he area of her life. Once a person is cursed, he would not be able to accomplish his dreams, and such person begins to go dry gradually until there is divine intervention and mercy. For some obvious reasons, most marriages are attacked when the man’s financial strength is weak. If you find out that you are under difficult problems, and you traced its source to your enemies, then you have to pray seriously.
