Don't Blame God!!!


Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.  Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.  Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.  Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.   And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.  To him be the power for ever and ever.  Amen.  I Peter 5:6-11

Unfortunately, we live in a world that is not perfect.  A world that will shower us with hurt and pain.  In I Peter 4:12, it says, "Dear friend, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering as though something strange were happening to you."  Suffering is a normal part of life because the devil is prowling around trying to destroy God's children.  The devil wants us to fail, but God wants us to succeed.  Don't give into the devil's schemes.  Stand firm, hold on to God.  Trust Him, and He will deliver you.  In verse eleven above, it says that after we have suffered a little while, God, Himself, will restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.  Don't give in to weakness, and don't blame God.  This is what the devil wants you to do.  James 1:17 says, "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."  God wants what is best for you, so don't give in to the devil's lies and believe that God has brought bad on you.  God brings good, and He WILL deliver you!!!!!

Whatever trial you are facing today, know that God loves you and He will deliver you!  We serve an awesome God!!!  A loving God!!!!  Trust in Him!  I Peter 5:7 says, "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."  Let's join together in prayer and give it all to God!

Dear God,  Your Word says in Philippians 4:6-7 to not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  We do this is Jesus name!  We give you all the praise, glory for the victory!  In Jesus name, Amen!!
