“Is God punishing you because of your wrong choices and sin? No, He’s not. People make choices that lead them away from safety in God’s will. They choose another way than His way for them. Through their own will, they decide to go in directions that will end up bad for them and their family.
Do we think that God does not want us to make certain bad choices because of Himself? He directs us in His way for OUR benefit. And, THAT gives Him glory! He is all about our best. And, that is why He says not to go our own way. In reality, when we go our own way–away from Him and what He wants, by the things and people we are involved with, we open ourselves up for the enemy to get involved with us.
Now, that can manifest in many ways. It can open us up to family issues, financial attacks, sickness and disease, turmoil, confusion, and spiritual attacks. Many other evil things also that I have not mentioned. Why? Because we have chosen by our own will to go in another direction away from God’s will for us! That’s why! Outside of God’s will is not going to turn out good for any believer!
You want things to be right in your life? Then you must give yourself to Jesus. Let Him steer your life from now on. He will bring you up and out if you do what He shows you to do! God is not punishing you for going away from His will. No! He just wants the best for you. And, He has not cast you aside because you have messed up! No! And, He is just trying to get you to look to Him and follow His plan for you!
You are getting beat up because you have left the protection and wisdom of God! To stay in that condition you are in is not what Jesus wants. He wants repentance and turning away from that which is trying to destroy you and come back into the place of His will!
But, by our own will, we remove ourselves from Father’s care! And, by our own will, we find ourselves in the clutches of the enemy in some way! No, my friend, the Father does not want you in the clutches of the devil. He wants you free and protected. With a sound, peaceful, clear mind. With Him leading every step into the future! Because He loves us and He simply wants the best for us!
If you are finding yourself in the place being in the grip of some demons, it’s no problem for Jesus to get you out of there! But, repentance is what needs to happen. Real repentance! From then on! Giving your future to Jesus to lead! That is the way up and out, my friend! Placing your life in His hands! By faith, trusting Jesus in everything!
He will show you the way you should go! Faithfully! So what you got goofed up! Everyone has to some degree or another! It’s not how much you messed up. It’s about how you do not have to stay there any more! It’s not the end of the story for you! You can actually see miracles when you give your life to Jesus to run. But, it’s always up to you how much of you Jesus has.
What do you choose? I found out that my will and way was not so great! I found out that my will apart from Jesus was stupid and futile. What I thought would make me happy didn’t and I kept going in the wrong direction expecting it to be different. But, it wasn’t. Only in God’s will do we find what is best for us personally.
His will is the only way to fly! Well, I hope that this article is read by someone who really needs to read it. I hope that you will awaken to the truth of what is happening to you! Awaken to Jesus! Awaken to His great love and His great will for you!” KF KenFletcher.org
