Word of Wisdom from Mi Daily Devotion 

Proverbs 6:1 KJV
[1] My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

Have you been stricken? It might sound like a strange word, but it's a reality to millions of people who are going through pain and unbearable suffering. Stricken means seriously affected by an undesirable condition or unpleasant feeling.  Synonyms- troubled, deeply affected, afflicted, struck, hit.

I- We were stricken to be steadfast for God- 1 Peter 5:9 KJV [9] Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

II- We may be stricken to strive and strengthen others for God- 1 Peter 5:10 KJV
[10] But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you .

III- We will be stricken to witness the suffering of Christ and to serve Him faithfully - 1 Peter 5:12 KJV [12] By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.-  By Ely Roque Sagansay
