Not Everything is as its Seems.
Not Everything is as its Seems.
When the devil sees breakthrough in front of a believer he
comes with a breakdown, but God is always there to lead us through the storm of
life, so that we will be fit for the reward he has kept for us. We are called
as Christians to keep our eyes constantly on the God who is the only one that
can provide the strength we need to pull through.
God can allow some ugly situations in our lives sometimes,
{Job chapter one} this is not because he hates us, but remember that he allowed
his only begotten son to be killed and we read in Paul’s letter to the Hebrew
chapter 12 the reward God gave to his son for his faithfulness in the
assignment he was given.
When we go through the downs of life let’s keep in mind that
at that point in our lives God is closer to us all that in needed to be done is
to look up to him for the grace we need to stay strong.
God knows where we are and whatever we are confronting at
this time so let us not feel abandon as the devil who is our enemy will intend
it to look that way. We know that God cannot abandon his own he is always in
the storm with us, if we can call on him he will calm the storms in our lives.
The trials and tribulations in life is not all the time a
negative narrations as most of us react when things are falling apart, most
trials in our lives is to prepare us for
the new level God has planned for us we can find a perfect example in the story
of Joseph in Genesis chapter 50 verse
20.
You may be experiencing setbacks in your dreams and this
setbacks can come from your family and friends, you might be wondering when
your vision will come to light, the prophet Habakkuk felt that way too, but God
told him to write the vision down that it’s for an appointed time that though it
may delay due to some setbacks but it will come to pass. Read Habakkuk chapter
2 verse 2.
I understand when we find ourselves in such situations we
may feel that God has forgotten about us. God hasn’t forgotten about you. He
sees what you are going through. He sees your lonely nights, the struggles, all
those times you have gone the extra mile. He is about to increase your strength.
God does not expect you to be strong all the time. He understands there will
times that we get weary the good news is that he doesn’t fault us for feeling
weak the bible says “when you are weak, He is strongâ€
Take a break from telling God everything that is wrong he already knows what you need. There is nothing wrong with asking, but sometimes you need to change over to thanking God for what he has promised you.
