SECRET MESSAGE

{God will restore} us a {hundredfold} because {God has favored} us  and been {mindful} of us. 

[Note: Whatever we have lost for the sake of God's will shall be restored many times over (even a hundredfold). See Matthew 19:29-30.]

He {... appoints} trials {to prick} us to {bring up} the {flame of Jehovah}. 

[Note: God's light will shine brighter in those who love Him and serve Him. Trials bring us close to God so we will lack nothing. See James 1:2-4.]

Trials will {... prick} our hearts {to make good} God's people and will {... abundantly bless} and {deliver} God's people {to ... [make them] be turned to righteousness} so that they will {humble [themselves]}. 

[Note: Without trials, we would turn our hearts away from God through our pride. Trials bring us into a state of dependence on God. If we seek God through them, we will get to know God better, and even as our best Friend. See Romans 5:1-5, James 1:12, 1 Peter 1:6-9, and 1 John 1:3-10.]

2. SOME RELATED VERSES

(See James chapter 1, verses 2 through 4. See also Acts 9:3-5.)

| Trials or temptations |

James 1:2-4

"[2] My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; [3] Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."

| Kicking against God's conviction (pricks) and trials |

Acts 9:3-5

"[3] And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: [4] And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? [5] And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks." 

[Note: Not long after that experience, Saul became a Christian. And, he changed his name to Paul.]

| Forsaking things that God convicts us about for the sake of God's Kingdom, and receiving an hundredfold in return |

Jesus Christ said these words in Matthew 19:29-30:

Matthew 19:29-30

"[29] And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. [30] But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first."
