Tested and Proven
Scripture: Isaiah 28:16
God describes Jesus as a tested stone—not random, not accidental, but proven.
Jesus faced temptation, suffering, and pressure—yet remained without sin. That means He’s not just a theoretical Savior; He’s one who understands real life.
You can trust a foundation that has already endured the weight.
Reflection:
Do you trust Jesus with the pressure points in your life?
Bring one area of stress or struggle to God today and intentionally surrender it.
