IF YOU DESIRE TO DISCOVER AND FULFILL YOUR DIVINE DESTINY IN CHRIST IN THIS WORLD, YOU MUST HAVE THE FEAR OF GOD AT HEART!
Although ALL genuine Christians (Christ's followers) in this World are CANDIDATES OF GOD'S MERCY, many times you wander:
1. Why do some genuine Christians SUCCEED and other do not SUCCEED at certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified for SUCCESS?
2. Why do some genuine Christians gets HEALED and other do not gets HEALED at a certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified for HEALING?
3. Why do some genuine Christians get APPOINTED and other do not get APPOINTED at a certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified for APPOINTMENT?
4. Why do some genuine Christians get to UNDERSTAND SCRIPTURES and other do not get to UNDERSTAND SCRIPTURES at certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified to UNDERSTAND SCRIPTURES?
5. Why do some genuine Christians get PREGNANT and other do not get PREGNANT at a certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified for PREGNANCY?
6. Why do some genuine Christians get MARRIED and other do not get MARRIED at a certain times when all of them are willing and obviously qualified for MARRIAGE?
7. Why do some genuine Christians DIE and other do not DIE at a certain times when all of them based on the circumstances are obviously qualified for DEATH?
8. And so on...
The Bible is a book with all of God's answers to human questions and reveals the "WHY " to us thus:
For He said to Moses, I will have MERCY on whom I will have MERCY, and I will have COMPASSION on whom I will have COMPASSION. So then it is NOT of him that WILLS, nor of him that RUNS, but of GOD that SHOWS MERCY. You will say then unto me, why does He yet find fault? For who had resisted His Will? No but, O man, who art you that REPLIES against GOD? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, WHY had you made me thus? Has not the POTTER power over the CLAY, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? (Romans: 9. 15,16,19-21).
Therefore, the Bible counsels us thus
Let us therefore COME boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain MERCY, and find GRACE to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16).
From the above scriptural verses:
1. We can see clearly that GOD does not SHOW MERCY to everyone or that GOD does selects whom He SHOW MERCY to par time par situation. True! Take note, take heed!
2. We can also see clearly that it is an exclusive and unquestionable RIGHT of GOD to SHOW MERCY to whosoever He Will and Wants to SHOW MERCY to par time par situation. That you and I as His creation do not have the human or divine RIGHT to question Him on His decision and action, but to thankfully accept it as His righteous VERDICT for us par time par our situation. True! Take note, take heed!
Therefore, the Bible counsels us thus:
In every thing GIVE THANKS: for this is the WILL of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
Therefore, the day you starts QUESTIONING GOD'S DECISIONS and ACTIONS for you or for other people in Christ, that is the day you consciously or unconsciously cross a red line of rebelling and striving against your Creator and Owner and the Bible says WOE (Cursed) is anyone that gets angry or STRIVES with his or her Maker (God). True! Take note, take heed! (Isaiah 45:9).
Now, I will love you to know and note this that everyday, our spiritual and physical ENEMIES secretly lay satanic charges and judgment against us in the spirit and human realms that are meant to CAST satanic and deadly SNARES on us with the aim to spiritually and physically kill, steal and destroy God's good things in Christ in (and for) our lives and to also kill, steal and destroy our lives itself before our time is over on Earth. True! Take note, take heed! (Romans 8:31-39; Isaiah ; John 10:1-10).
These SNARES are dangerous spiritual and physical enticements and entrapments that causes one (a genuine Christian):
1. To fall in SIN (to experience spiritual DEATH) in this World. True!
2. To enter into STRUGGLES and to SUFFER in this World. True!
3 To have SORROW in this World and possibly experience physical DEATH at last if God does not have MERCY and intervene on time or by His Will allow them to have their way. True! Take note, take heed! (James 1:12-15; Jeremiah 5:26-31).
Therefore, the Bible reveals to us thus:
It is of the LORD'S MERCIES that we are NOT CONSUMED, because His COMPASSIONS fail NOT. They are new every morning: great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22,23; 1 Thessalonians 5:24).
Truly, It is the MERCIES of GOD that does not make the daily wickedness of Satan, Demons and Witches and Wizard to terribly manifest in our lives, during the day hours as wickedly programmed and projected against us, and especially during the night hours. To God alone be all the glory in Jesus name! (Psalm 91).
Personally, I am so grateful to God for His MERCY towards my life and family. This is because by what I carry in Christ, the enemies have been after my life over the years till now, but the MERCY of GOD has preserved me and my family. I know you wouldn't understand, but just give God praise and thanks daily for me and my family and keep us in your daily prayers. That is, if you still want me around long enough on this side of life to be a blessing to you and many others around the globe. That is the best gift you can give me, my family and ministry. True! Thank you! (Philippians 1:19-26).
Now, know and note that God's MERCY (God's preferential intervention by the Holy Spirit of Christ) that causes us to preferentially ESCAPE EVIL from Satan and demons and ESCAPE WICKEDNESS from men preceeds God's GRACE (God's preferential favour and help by the Holy Spirit of Christ) that causes men to preferentially FAVOUR and HELP us par time par situation. True! (Hebrews 4:16; 1 Corinthians 10:12,13; Psalm 124).
Now, HOW do you get God's ATTENTION for His MERCY and GRACE?
Again, the Bible being the book of God's answers to ALL human questions reveals to us thus:
And His MERCY is on THEM that FEAR Him from generation to generation. (Luke 1:50).
Please take a moment off now to Read: Proverbs 8:13; Proverbs 10:27; Proverbs 14:27; Proverbs 15:16; Proverbs 19:23; Proverbs 22:4; Proverbs 23:17.
It amazes me to see lots of genuine Christians FEAR MEN than FEAR GOD. This is reflected in the ways and manner they make their ungodly and bad CHOICES and DECISIONS daily against the Word, Way and Will of God in Christ for them par time par their situation in this World. True! So sad, so bad!
Many genuine Christians are unaware that the Bible reveals thus:
The FEAR of MAN brings a SNARE: but whoso puts his TRUST in the LORD shall be SAFE. Many SEEK the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment COMES from the LORD. (Proverbs: 29:25,26; Ecclesiastes 9:11; Ecclesiastes 3:1-11)
So, it is unfortunate that:
1. Many genuine Christians desire and ask for God's MERCY (God's preferential intervention by the Holy Spirit of Christ) par time par their situation, when they do not consciously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE in Christ in this World with the FEAR of GOD at HEART. You can see now why many avoidable BAD THINGS happen to so many genuine Christians in Christ in this World. True! So sad, so bad!
2. Many genuine Christians desire and ask for God's GRACE (God's preferential favour and help by the Holy Spirit of Christ) par time par their situation, when they do not consciously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE in Christ in this World with the FEAR of GOD at heart. You can see now why many unavoidable GOOD THINGS do not happen to many genuine Christians in Christ in this World. True! So sad, so bad!
The Bible reveals to us that God as our spiritual Father in Christ CHASTISES (disciplines) us who He LOVE. Therefore, He will sometimes DELAY or DENY us His MERCY (God's preferential intervention by the Holy Spirit of Christ) and His GRACE (God's preferential favour and help by the Holy Spirit of Christ) we ask for as His measure of DISCIPLINING us. That is, if we do not consciously and consistently THINK, SPEAK and LIVE with His FEAR at HEART in Christ in this World. True! Take note, take heed! (Hebrews 12:1-15).
Now, if you sincerely desire to encounter and experience God's MERCY and GRACE, then you have to LEARN to humbly THINK, SPEAK and LIVE with the FEAR of GOD at HEART enough to depart from every evil thing that will displease Him in your life in Christ in this World and be quick to REPENT (change) from your wrongs thinking, speaking and doings which are not in line with His Word, Way and Will in Christ for you par time par your situation in this World. True! (1 John 5:18-21; 1 John 1:8-10).
Finally, know and note that the FEAR of GOD demands from you to always and all way SEEK the Word, Way and Will of God in Christ for you par time par your situation in this World and you NOT thinking, speaking and doing whatsoever you like or love in this World as if you are NOT under divine Authority in Christ in this World. True! Take note, take heed! (Isaiah 11:1-3; Proverbs 3:3-7; 1 Corinthians 2:9-16; Romans 8:14-28).
If you STAND steadfastly, faithfully and hopefully in FAITH for God in this World to THINK, SPEAK and DO good or what is right par time par your situation because of the FEAR of GOD in your HEART, I can assure you from my personal encounter and experience with GOD, He will not FORSAKE or DISAPPOINT you at the end of the day. In fact, He will glorify His name in your life and situation at the end of the day by SETTLING you for your lost years and opportunities. GOD is too FAITHFUL and ABLE to FAIL you human He created for His own pleasure. Too FAITHFUL to FAIL.True! take note, take heed! (1 Peter 5:6-10; 1 Thessalonians 2:24; James 4:6-10).
Take note, take heed as I am inspired to ask you to PRAY Psalm 7, 8 and 9, this morning, afternoon and evening today.
God bless you.
