Where were you?? ..many a times we view our suffering as a source of questions to God and even see it as a source of unbelief in one true God..you goes on to justify and validate this uncouth sentence that if God were too powerful why does he allows such a such a thing to happen. First we need to understand,He is who He is period..His ways will always be incomprehensible to the human mind n He doesn’t have an explanation for whatever He does. Why do we then ask why,why without glorifying Him in the midst of all this. Many times I say our suffering should be a source of courage for as believers we took the yoke and burden Jesus Christ called us for n in our walk of Faith,suffering will be part n parcel of it n how you view it will be what make or break you..taking up courage brings in perseverence and endurance needed to conquer similar situations in future. God does everything for His glory..in as much as He does not delight in His people suffering but He delight more in seeing you Trust Him more n cultivate courage in the midst of all that, it will glorify His name n there is nothing more you were created for than for the glory of God.Take up courage for it ain’t your battle..its the Lord’s. Do not take up arms in a war you know very well aint yours, delight in the peace,strength and assurance you get in the Lord.
What is the greatest pleasure one can have in this world,,what’s the greatest comfort than we have that Jesus paid it all juat by three words everything changed..”it is finished”..He said..the pleasure that the death that stared at me ready to devour every sinew,every bone n marrow in my body is no more..What’s your greatest pleasure brethren??..get we were still sinners He died for us. I have come to realize that salavation is everything to do with God.for it His purpose n glory to decide to save us through His son,He Himself provides the Faith to which we believe in,He himself elects us into His flock. Thats the greatest Pleasure..where do i find my pleasure in the midst of all this that happen in the world today..2 Timothy:3.2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2 Timothy:3.3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good..that is the world today..but in the midst of all this i still have the greatest pleasure that this shall come to pass and in my fight for the kingdom i shall conquer and reign with him.Colossians:2.15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. …MY GREATEST PLEASURE LIES IN THE ASSURANCE THAT HE PAID IT ALL
When the going gets tough we say the tough gets going but what keeps you going n not stumbling when you go?,,i have walked the faith and whenever i do stumbles there is an assurance that the lord i believe in is risen n that’s enough,,it keeps be among the tough for i know Him n he too knows me by my name,,am proud he elected me and am among His sheep,,God tells Joshua,just as He was with Moses he will be with him too.if He is for us who can be against us,,Isaiah 40:31 says that those who wait upon the Lord shall mount like eagles,shall walk n not be weary,shall run but not faint.that is a true meaning of the tough going despite all the physicality of the journey for we know the source of strength,,WE WAIT UPON THE LRD.
