You know how it is when the road you take is all smooth and cruising and suddenly your tires get stuck in a pothole? well, thats how I'am right now... and things seem a bit more than they should because, well, everything ran perfectly just before. I know, I know the simile isnt that good and is a bit muddled, which just exacerbates how I feel. Hmm...it doesnt take much guessing blog reader but yeah, am a bit in the dumps right now...just a bit.
So, youre saying?...yup, I'm human too.
I wont tell, but I've learned once more that great expectations lead to failed expectations most of the time except when were dealing with God of course. Its because we are fallible and weak. The flesh cannot be converted, thats why we needed redeeming. We need Calvary, a kinsman redeemer. That is the reason why John wept in Revelations', because he thought no one would come forward to take the book and open the seals...because he knew, if no one can, we are all doomed, there is no way of escape. But God had planned it all before the foundation of the world. He knew we needed saving from the flesh and everything else... Especially in our day, where it is a Sodom and Gomorrah condition.
We just need to fight it back until our physical redemption comes, that is the rapture. We are already eternally secure in Him. Its just this pesthouse we need to rid off. But then again the Lord has provided a way for us whilst here on earth...thats what the Holy Ghost is given for - to enable us to fight back, for the blood to speak for us when we get trapped to sin, to remind us every minute, " to act like frontlets over our eyes" according to the old testament.
Our thoughts reaches Gods throne before we even speak it, according to Bro.Branham, and I truly believe that.
The devil will always try to find a way to get through to us so he could accuse us of sin before God, and lest we underestimate him, he does so easily get to us- its just God holding him back for us all the time. That is why we really cannot judge other people, especially when they are going thru something. We are all vulnerable, we are all capable of making mistakes, its innate to say the least, its only when you truly become a christian and is filled with the Holy Ghost is the time when its been washed out of you for good. We still make mistakes and trip or even backslide but it isnt innate anymore. We are a new creature in Christ.
And that, my friend, is Gods provided way. Only through Him.
So, let us fight the good fight of faith and finish the course.
Because believe it or not, its our only hope.
