  God First Questioning God: Why?        We can, of course question God to learn from Him.   Even if we ask him “Why…” he is never short of answers.  The answers are right there in his word where he also says in Hosea 4:6 “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge.”        We, indeed, have rejected knowledge by not paying attention to it and by being indifferent to it or to Him. In times of revival, we must listen attentively to what God is saying to us.   What is a revival? It is a time of outpouring of the Holy Spirit of God calling back everyone from every country to come to know God more and more.   During that time the knowledge of God is revealed more deeply and the whole world is called to attention.         Do you want to be part of this? God has all the answers. To all our problems and more “Why should the living complain when punished for their sins”. (Lamentation 3:39 (NIV)  The answer is: We bring it on ourselves, but

Depending on the circumstances   According to your Word

  Be a Forward Thinker   Not rear-view minded   I used to be one of those rear-view mirrors minded person who focuses constantly on what is behind them.  Worrying, anxiety, ect… Those drivers on the road not only drive slower, but they also don’t drive straight and could cause an accident.  It’s the same in life, nothing wrong about being slow except that you lose focus on your goals and could cause an accident as people hazardously have to pass you.  In short, if you want to keep the momentum going stick to the speed limit, even in your life.  I used to live like that and lived a life that was not balanced psychologically as well as other areas in my life.  It was chaos.   Be hopeful   The change in me happened when I realized I needed to change or somehow stop living.  I was desperate even as a Christian and needed to change in order to live better.  Foremost, to all that, my thinking had to changed and for that thankfully I had and still has the Bible and the Lord Je
