Thank God He did not answer my prayers.

Hello dear reader,

Trust God for your life that you’re doing well?

I trust God that You will experience spirit and life here in Jesus name.

Thank God,  He didn’t answer my prayers. This takes me back to 2021.

Back then, compared to now with God, was more of what am I really in like, it was a stage of serious discovery of what I had received in Christ but no mentorship whatsoever just self mentoring. Thus, I simply designed my own life in Jesus, which is not God’s design, He writes the story not us😁.

Going forward, I got to know that a person I knew was diagnosed with autism and you could imagine how it could feel. So I took it upon myself to pray it out of the person through Pastor Jerry’s prayer Altar. But through that altar,  He made me find out the truth of myself when I began to run out of faith.

However God didn’t answer my prayers, rather He made me realise that I lacked faith in Him and virtues in Christ that He needed me to have. I was quite upset and very disappointed because that’s not the way I learned God.

I learned God as the person who could answer my request once you follow the tricks given. But that year, God shocked me and made me realise that He cannot be controlled. Rather, He controls me.

Since then, it’s been a journey into the truth and spiritual maturity into the fullness of Christ through faith.

Reflections.

1. What is your understanding of God?

2. Is it the true depiction of who He is?

Faith is described in Hebrews 11 vs 1 in the Bible, let’s use the Amplified version, 😄 Hebrews 11:1
[1]NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].

The summary of being saved by God through Christ is to become like Christ,  who lived by faith.

Without faith, and I mean Jesus type of faith, embedded in righteousness and holiness with true love, God can never be pleased. So it’s not all about a guy that can give me all I want but someone deeper than that, its about glory, kingdom,  love and power.

And this comes through knowing Him more intimately through His word.

Kindly check your life with these words and be sure you are on the right track. God bless you and help you in Jesus name. Amen 🙏

Note: Some things might not make sense to you now but definitely will as time goes on. Have a great day.
