It is almost like God orders our trials to show us how weak we are. He wants us to cling to Him. His purpose is to bring us to a place where we entirely depend on Him for all things. His purpose is to bring us to a place where we no longer depend on our own strength to overcome in this world but by faith depend upon Him to supply us with the strength we need, when we need it. How many times, since you have been saved, have you said, “help me Lord”? How many times have you said, “Father, I can not take anymore? How many times, since you have been saved, have you stood at your end not knowing that this is where God wanted you all the time…not knowing that your strength must decrease before God’s strength could increase in you?  As long as you have the answer, God can not impart to you His answers.  As long as you are using your strength, God can not impart to you His strength. So He waits. And He waits. And He allows you to go through; but in so doing you begin to see that what you have is not enough…can’t be used… won’t work against the wiles of the Devil.
