Fighting God


We can say for a fact that most of the inequalities of life and the negativity we see on earth are created by men. However, there are many things that happen and we can simply not explain[no matter how hard we try].


There are many questions on the minds of people fueled by their experiences, the things they see and the day-to-day challenges they encounter which are sometimes no fault of theirs. These questions typically begin with "why this..." or "why that..." and are accompanied with hours of prayers that sometimes does not produce immediate results. More so, there are many other issues you may have come across and you simply asked [the question], “...if there is a God, then where was He?...". 


We have to understand [and appreciate the fact that], the best way to understand God is not to understand Him. This is because you cannot use the simplicity of human wisdom to explain His [character, manner of doing things and] greatness.

                                                                  

Isaiah 55:9

  "As the heavens are higher than the earth,

so are my ways higher than your ways

and my thoughts than your thoughts"


Looking at the life of Jesus, it tells us a lot. That as long as we live, when we trust the Lord, we can have all the things we need pertaining to life. Not only the material needs of life but the spiritual strength that drives us to moving on in life no matter the issues we may face. 


When it’s time to cry, cry and when it’s time to be happy, be happy [with yourself]. Challenges will always come but you must have the grace to face it. You cannot have all things right because failure is part of life’s journey. It sharpens your understanding, sometimes, over the things you once couldn’t handle well or took for granted. 


Faulty people can always be better off than people who are [thought to be] whole. 


Many people fight God for many reasons that are [sometimes] unimportant. Instead of fighting God, know that fighting Him also means accepting the fact that you won’t understand all but he will make you sufficient in what you need per the situation and time. 


We cannot wage war and win against the things we do not understand - N.Essel


We have to understand that the supreme power that made the universe has one way or the other willed it to be so. Let us not lose hope over our challenges and short comings as to "why this" or "why that". You cannot have all things go your way. But accepting the “nature” of God gives you understanding and grace to all the things we see on earth. When we fight God with complains and questions, let us remember His word that tells us that ….


"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus"- Phil 4:6-7


Your questions to God and your complains should be on your knees and giving thanks as you present your issues to the father. Behold, there you find peace, which you won’t also understand but it will solve all your problems as simple as that. Things may not change but his 'Peace' gives you that rest that keeps you going. Hallelujah!


Let’s end the fight against God but rather, pray in Jesus' name. Amen.


God richly bless you for reading and sharing.

10 Tips for Choosing the Right Partner

I recently read an article in Psychology Today called "10 Tips to Help You Pick a Good Partner'' by Dr. Barton Goldsmith. What really jumped out at me was this line: "Picking the right person for the right reasons at the right time is an art form." I cannot think of a more accurate statement in one sentence that sums up dating. With the divorce rates as high as they are, it makes sense that it takes the right person, right time and right reasons to make a fulfilling and strong relationship. I love Dr. Goldsmith's tips, and as a nice complement, I wanted to write my own: Don't make choices out of fear: So many times people either choose a partner or stay with someone in an unhappy relationship predominantly out of some kind of fear. Usually that fear is being alone but fears can vary widely from person to person. It's often better to be alone and wait for the right person than to make a decision out of fear. Making decisions out of fear leads to confus...

Greater Love

Jesus gave you everything... He gave HIS LIFE for you so you can live forever He gave up HIS Royalty for you so you become Kings and Princes He gave up on HIS riches just so you can be richer than rich He gave up HIS flesh to be broken just so you will never see sickness and weakness ever again He gave up HIS Majesty and Honor to be kill naked just so you have no shame, no guilt, no condemnation But have Honor Radiance Righteousness and Holiness Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.[John 15:13] Jesus did it for you because He ranks you as friend.

Demand Your Blessing

The Holy Bible tags God as  all powerful  and our  provider . God has a lot of blessings in store for us especially in this year and it's very important that we come to the realization that children of God have the power to demand these blessings from God. This is because He has already said he will bless us. Demanding your blessing is just showing God that you are worthy enough for it [because of Christ Jesus]. In Ephesians 3:20 the bible says " ...for unto him who can do far more exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think according to the  POWER THAT IS AT WORK IN US ". (That's the power we're talking about)  Now we've got to understand that the power we have is  key  in the spiritual realm and is granted by the Holy Spirit  seeActs  1:8 . Faith, Pray and Righteousness are necessary for the abundant blessings of God in our lives. In  see1  Corinthians 12:9  the Holy Bible talks about the gift of faith granted b...
