THE TESTS OF GOD

God doesn’t test us because he doesn’t love us. God tests us because he loves us and that he actually has a great plan for whatever relates to our destiny.
He tested the Israelites by making them go through the great and terrible wilderness with it’s poisonous snakes and scorpions.. a thirsty land where there was no water Deuteronomy 8:15-16[15]Who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with its fiery serpents and scorpions and thirsty ground where there was no water, but Who brought you forth water out of the flinty rock,[16]Who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not know, that He might humble you and test you, to do you good in the end.
