God Is Never Wrong

GOD IS NEVER WRONG

A king, who did not believe in the goodness of God, had a slave who, in all circumstances, said: "My king, do not be discouraged, because everything God does is perfect, no mistakes!"

One day, the king and his slave went hunting, and along the way, a wild animal attacked the king. His slave managed to kill the animal, but could not prevent his majesty from losing a finger. Furious, and without showing his gratitude for being saved, the nobleman said, "Is God good? If He was good, I would not have been attacked and lost my finger." The slave replied, "My king, despite all these things, I can only tell you that God is good, and He knows the "why" of all these things. What God does is perfect. He is never wrong!"

Outraged by the response, the king ordered the arrest of his slave. Later, he left for another hunt and was captured by savages who made human sacrifices. On the altar, ready to sacrifice the nobleman, the savages found that the victim had not one of his fingers, so he was released. He was not complete, so he could not be offered to the gods.

Upon his return to the palace, he authorized the release of his slave, then, he received him very affectionately. "My dear servant, God was really good to me! I was almost killed by the wild men, but for lack of a single finger, I was let go! But I have a question: if God is so good, why did he allow me to put you in jail?" "My king, if I had gone with you on this hunt, I would have been sacrificed for you, because I have no missing finger; so remember, everything God does is perfect. He is never wrong."

Often we complain about life, and negative things that happen to us, forgetting that nothing is random and everything has a purpose. Every morning, offer your day to God, don't be in a rush. Ask God to inspire your thoughts, guide your actions, and ease your feelings. And do not be afraid. God is never wrong!

Our God knows, because He never makes mistakes! The path of God and His word is perfect, without impurities. He is the way of all those who trust in Him, as He says in 2 Samuel 22: 31.

GOD IS NEVER WRONG.

‘People have one thing in common. They are all different.’

The bible was not designed to make
sense in our lives;
but to create faith in our lives.

‘And we know that all things work together for good
to them that love God, to them who are the called
according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Anything Is Better Than The Dead

"Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out." Song of Solomon 4:16
Anything is better than the dead calm of indifference. Our souls may wisely desire the north wind of trouble if that alone can be sanctified to the drawing forth of the perfume of our graces. So long as it cannot be said, "The Lord was not in the wind," we will not shrink from the most wintry blast that ever blew upon plants of grace.

Did not the spouse in this verse humbly submit herself to the reproofs of her Beloved; only entreating Him to send forth His grace in some form, and making no stipulation as to the peculiar manner in which it should come?

Did she not, like ourselves, become so utterly weary of deadness and unholy calm that she sighed for any visitation which would brace her to action?

Yet she desires the warm south wind of comfort, too, the smiles of divine love, the joy of the Redeemer's presence; these are often mightily effectual to arouse our sluggish life. She desires either one or the other, or both; so that she may but be able to delight her Beloved with the spices of her garden. She cannot endure to be unprofitable, nor can we.

How cheering a thought that Jesus can find comfort in our poor feeble graces. Can it be? It seems far too good to be true. Well may we court trial or even death itself if we shall thereby be aided to make glad Immanuel's heart. O that our heart were crushed to atoms if only by such bruising our sweet Lord Jesus could be glorified.

Graces unexercised are as sweet perfumes slumbering in the cups of the flowers: the wisdom of the great Husbandman overrules diverse and opposite causes to produce the one desired result, and makes both affliction and consolation draw forth the grateful odours of faith, love, patience, hope, resignation, joy, and the other fair flowers of the garden.

May we know by sweet experience, what this means.

Your 2011 Circumstances Are 2012 Opportunities

As I talked to several people last year, I realized that 2011 was rough year for a lot of them. Some people lost their jobs, homes, children and heck I almost lost my life in a car accident.

Regardless to the circumstances or problems you had, there is total deliverance out of everyone of them! Guess what? If you reading this post, you are still here and alive - thank the Lord!

God wants to use your 2011 circumstances as 2012 opportunities for his Glory. So stop reflecting on them with the mindset that you have been defeated but with the mindset that God was strong in those circumstances to bring you out of them. Let others know about how God came to your rescue and delivered you out of them all. Even if you still have some residue of them, don't grow weary or get faint because help is still on the way.

You will get closer to God as you go through these circumstances as He reveal to you how awesome and wonderful He is. He will never leave you nor forsake you. Yes you may have lost your job but guess what, God has a better job for you in 2012. You may have lost your home, but guess what, God has another home for you in 2012. Yes I was in a car accident but guess what, I had car insurance and my car looks better now than before I had the accident.

In conclusion, let's give God some glory for our 2011 circumstances and situations and anticipate the wonderful opportunities of 2012 as we seek God's supernatural deliverance!

Delve Into Your Purpose In 2012!

Greetings! I haven't written a post in a couple of days since I had a cold/flu. I should have it licked by the weekend. So, I did not get a chance to say Happy New Year yet. Since this is day 4 of 2012 and everybody is back to work and school, I would like to say Happy New Year! I pray that you and your family will have a blessed and prosperous year.

So, have you thought about what your purpose is for 2012? We are all here for a reason and a season. Since 2012 is representative of God putting things in order for His people, let's make this a priority.

What is it that you need to have God put in order so that you can operate in your purpose - the thing that you were put on this earth to do? It might sound simple but you will be surprised to find out that there are a lot of people who still don't know what they are gifted to do.

We all have creativity. That creativity stems from our makeup. We have a brain to come up with creative ideas. We have a mouth to declare the creativity without shame. We have hands to skillfully operate in our creativity.

Example: You love to cook. Use your brain to come up with healthy cooking tips and meals. Use your mouth to let others know about your recipes you have come up with for them to tryout. Use your hands to cook these healthy meals for the elderly, for a single mom who is working and going to school and don't have time to cook healthy meals for her kids or help your local church by doing a fund raiser for their your group with your cooking.

In conclusion, I pray that you spend time in prayer with the Lord so that He can reveal to you your purpose.

Let's Get Things In Order Using Our Skills, Knowledge And Abilities in 2012

I was reading the Word to see what scriptures there were pertaining to the word "order" since 2012 is fast approaching us and the number 12 represents order.

So I ran across Exodus 36:6-7 which reads "Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: "No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary." And so the people were restrained from bringing more, because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work. NIV

I began to read the previous scriptures and saw that Moses was to gather all the people who were skilled and crafted in order to build the sanctuary. These men were experts at what they did and they also were able to teach others how to become experts as well.

Those who did not have the skill or craft brought offerings to help with this order. So everybody played a role which means there was unity. The Bible says that where there is unity, the Lord commands His blessings. Now do you see why Moses gave the order for them to not bring anything else as an offering? They did the natural and God did the supernatural.

I believe that this is what we are to be doing now to establish God's kingdom here on earth. God has already given us the skills, knowledge and abilities to do his good and perfect will.

In conclusion, let's get things in order in our personal lives, in our homes and in our church using our skills, knowledge and abilities in order for us to have more than enough of God's blessings, favor and grace.

Let's Pray Without Ceasing

Are you True To HIS Task?

As I read Luke 10:1-9 tonight, I begin to reflect on what our task is now that Christ has left us here on earth to continue the work that He set out to do.

What is it that Christ came to do? He came to destroy the works of the devil according to I John 3:8. The works of the devil is to steal, kill and destroy. Do you see the works of the devil at work in your life or someone you know life? If so, then you have a task to do. Jesus came to do minister grace, love, peace and a life of abundance to those who serve Him. With this in mind, we are to share the love of God with those who the devil has attacked to the point that they are left lifeless.

Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the life. As we encounter the lifeless, they are to gain life because of the life of Christ within us. Peace should over shadow their confused mindset as we minister to their trying situation. They will be empowered by the Holy Ghost to want to live again and experience the abundant life that is available to them through Jesus Christ.

In conclusion, as you encounter others who are going through life without hope, defeated and lifeless, be mindful of the task that we have been given for the harvest truly is great but the laborers are few. I pray that the Lord will send forth laborers into His harvest.
