SWEETNESS FROM GOD

NUGGETS FROM CHRIST
GOD BROUGHT SWEETNESS 

One of the greatest cause of affliction in the life of a believer is wrong conception, perception about the person and the ways of the Almighty.

Some  believers are in pain,  oppressed and tormented by The Enemy of the Human Soul because of ignorance and wrong perception of The Almighty.

In Job 9:9-20, Job wrote his perceptions about God. The narration presented posivite testimony  about God in Job 9:9-10

" He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, "

Then he went on in Job 9:16-18 to give his perception of The Almighty that is obviously wrong as proved by other Bible passages. 

He said if he summons the Almighty, God will not allow him to present his case when God said in Isaiah that you should present your strong arguments. 

Also God invites you  in the book of  Hebrews to approach His throne boldly and confidantly that you may obtain mercy and grace in times of need.

THIS GOD IS TOO GOOD OOO.

Naomi was placed in a situation that placed her back against the wall. Her circumstances told her everything was over for her because her late husband took a wrong decision on behalf of the family.

Naomi believed and confessed that everything was over because of the pictures she could see around her.

Her circumstances told her everything was over but  she failed to see through the eyes of the Spirit that the WAY MAKER had gone ahead of her and gave her a daughter- in -law who will restore the sweetness of her name.

She testified about the Almighty but her assessment and judgement was wrong. 

Listen to her statement:
 “Can this be Naomi?” “Don’t call me Naomi,” she told them. “Call me Mara, because the Almighty has made my life very bitter. I went away full, but the Lord has brought me back empty. Why call me Naomi? The Lord has afflicted me; the Almighty has brought misfortune upon me.” Ruth 1:

God does not make men's lives bitter especially those who have entered a relationship with Him through covenant or faith in Christ Jesus. 

God is in the business of giving sweetness to bitter situation. Read Psalm 107 carefully and you will see God reaching out to deliver and help men who got into trouble because of their sin and disobedience.

I can categorically tell you that God does not delight in the death of a sinner  and even backsliding believers, He delights when men repent from their unbelief in Christ and turn to Him.

In my estimation if l was to rate sin and disobedience to God's word in degrees, then l committed my grievous sins as a backsliding believer than as a sinner who did not believed in Christ.

Though l had Christ in my heart and the Holy Spirit in my spirit, my body and soul was held captive by the strong grasp of disobedience.

But the unfailing love of God never left me until l returned into His safe hands of love.

Your perception and  understanding about God will determine what you enjoy and don't enjoy from Him.

If you don't like what you are enjoying from God, kindly examine your perceptions of the ways of the Kingdom.

God is a way Maker that is in the business of helping the sons and daughters of men and not condemning them. 

CHRIST manifested for this very reason. 

Song:
When my back was against the wall 
And everything seem all over
You made a way
And l am standing here 
Only because you made a way.
