God not only knows about all of your problems and circumstances, He also has a solution for them II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes

Welcome, dear readers, to „Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”! I thank God for every one of you and pray that you wouldn’t lose your thirst for God’s Word and His wisdom and for God’s fellowship because God is the source of our life.

Yesterday we talked about four main sources of human problems. And we established that when the problems appear we must first determine their source.

  • The storm in Job’s life was cause by his disobedience (Job, 1).
  • The storm in Paul’s life began because of the disobedience of others (Acts, 27).
  • The disciples of Jesus got into a storm, even though they were obedient to the Lord (Mark, 6: 45-52).

Storms and turbulences in our lives can be cause by:

  • the trials sent by God;
  • the temptations sent by the devil;
  • other people’s sins and persecution;
  • your own wrong choice or decision.

The solution for your problem requires particular approach and depends on its source and cause.

  • If the problem is caused by your wrong actions, then you need to repent.
  • If the problem is the temptation of the devil, you need to resist him firm in faith.
  • If the problem is the result of the wrongdoings of others that are directed against you, you need to forgive these people and move forward, putting your life into the hands of God Who is the Righteous Judge.
  • If the trials came from God, then you simply need to stay calm before God and trust Him to change your character, teach you something new and change you into the likeness of Jesus Christ.

Whatever the source of your problem, you must know that there are no problems in your life that God would be ignorant of. Our heavenly Father knows everything that is going on in the lives of His children. God filters all events and uses them for our good, even if Satan and other people do things to cause you pain. The size of the problem and its source do not matter to God. He will use every problem for your good and your growth if you trust Him.

Since God is sovereign and controls everything, every difficult situation should be viewed as one of life stages which move us closer to the realization of God’s perfect plan for your life. Every day of our lives are written in God’s calendar before we are born.

 

«Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them» (Psalm, 139:16).

 

«Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.»

 

May these words of Jesus give you daily encouragement in all your trials and problems!

 

 «These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world» (John, 16: 33).

 

Trust God, be filled with His Word, walk in holiness, serve God with your gifts and talents and you will witness God changing all your problems, tragedies and sufferings into triumph!

May God bless every on of you!

    If you desire to see and experience a miracle from God in your life, then you must forget about what other people think of your prayer style. At the period of seeking God, you must be concerned about one thing only, – how sincere your heart is during praying and how big your desire is to experience His intervention. Keep trusting and crying out to God even when everybody else have grown weak and lost faith in any possibilities for your life to change. God loves consistent and faithful people. He always has a reward for that type of people.

    1) Jesus gave some commandments to the Apostles BY THE HOLY SPIRIT (verse 2).Jesus Himself relied on the Holy Spirit in everything He did during His days in flesh. When He took on flesh, He was limited by it and He needed the Holy Spirit. As people we live in flesh and we also are limited by it. The only way for us to overcome these limitations is to rely on the Holy Spirit. We must be aware of the necessity and our dependency on the Holy Spirit. We must seek Him daily.

  • Your surrounding has an impact on you, it determines whether you enter the destiny God has prepared for you or you don´t

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    How and with whom you spend your time reflect your consecration and desire to do God´s will. Looking at the life of Jesus, we can see whom He preferred to spend most of His time with, namely, those who similar to Him desired to do God´s will. If you surround yourself with people who are not going anywhere in this life, you will soon lose your purpose and direction in your life as well. Spending a lot of time with those who have no revelation about their lives soon also you won´t be able to see the goal of your life. Exactly these things happened to Abraham. God called him out of his country, his relatives and his father´s house to the land God showed to him.
