Hello guys I'm here to share with you what the Lord showed me today and placed on my heart to share.
So I'm sure we all heard this familiar quote: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)
In good times we can resonate with that quote very well, we think " Yes , God has been really good to me! " or " I feel so blessed , God has really favoured me ! " but in bad times when we get attacked and tests and trials come our way we think " God why have you left me ? " , " Lord everything's going wrong ! Where are you ? " But pay attention guys this verse says " in all things"
"Wait hold does that mean even when I'm in this family situation right now, or I can't pay my bills, a loved one dies or I simply can't see where I'm heading to right now in life ? "
The answer to this question is yes, yes and again yes !
The Lord showed me that in a dream to make me understand.
You see as soon your faithful to the Lord, you serve Him and follow his will for your life you have turned away from the kingdom of darkness and turned to the kingdom of light, to the kingdom of your Heavenly Father.
The enemy sees you now as a threat to him because before you were buying his lies and falling for them, you were accepting sin without seeing what's on the other side and that's death .
But God has opened your eyes so that you can see the schemes of the enemy your not blinded anymore ! He can't fool you so that's why he's after you.
So we as christians have to expect to get attacked by the devil and we have to pay attention as 1 Peter 5:8 says 'Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.'
The enemy is fighting against us and searches whom to devour and if you're not prepared he can easily to take control over your life . And if you don't spend time with God and in his word , he can mess around with you as he wants ! That's why it is so important for us to spend time with God so that we can get to know him and who we are in him !
God loves to spend time with his children , he loves us so much but he won't force us to spend time with him !
But when we are in the battle God is faithful he will bring us through ! No matter what we're going through he will not allow us to get harmed or consumed by our struggles. He has already given us the victory ! And let me tell you guys there's something so beautiful that happens when we stand and believe God's promises for us , we do not only grow in faith but we start to praise God for his faithfulness in difficult times ! When we praise the Lord in such seasons it moves Him ! He is the one who brings us through and makes stronger than we were before !
And when we see brothers and sisters in Christ who are weaker we can help them to get through their situation. We can encourage and lift them up in the Lord !
And at the end we shall truly see that everything works out for good for those who love God and are called according to his purpose, not only for ourselves but for those around us too.
So, hang in there ! Cling on to God ! Hold on to his promises , because he got you , he's for you and he loves you immensely !
God bless you guys
