DO YOU QUESTION GOD?

-

Luke 18:8b

But when the Son of Man returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?”


No matter the level of maturity a believer seems to attain, there will still be some things that are not fully comprehended.


I remember teaching once in a youth conference, that if you have not questioned your faith before or asked about God's existence before, you may still do so once in this life time. So get it clear and over with once and for all.


The doubts, unbelief and questioning could be a total distraction from achieving quality fulfilment in God's purpose for our lives.


We are not insignificant, valueless or having no say, yet we are human, from dust in the body but sustained by God's spirit and possess a soul, which is living because God breathed into us.


Genesis 2:7

And the Lord God made man from the dust of the earth, breathing into him the breath of life: and man became a living soul.


He remains God no matter how familiar or carefree we become.


Difficulties, persecutions or lack should not make us begin to yield to asking questions in doubt for what do we really know?


If we know He is Father, let us honour Him as so, even as God, yes we may not have seen Him but we are assured, that if we keep faith even in the midst of difficulty, He will reveal Himself to us.


See Job's testimony


Job 42:5

"I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees You.


Let us remember that there is an enemy and his whole aim is to make us doubt and reject God.


So when pressures come, we are not to dwell on questions as to doubt but on faith, believing to ask: "Lord what do I do?".


We are of Him and ofcourse He is real.


He will not let us face more than we can bear.


1 Corinthians 10:13

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear.


Oh what great love.


At least we do not need to ask if God loves us. He proves this to us everyday!


Therefore let us throw off every doubt and walk in faith for victory is already ours.


Have you talked with God today?


PRAYER

Loving Father keep me in faith that there would be no doubt of You in me. It is You Lord, no one can take Your place. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
