Its your RIGHT

Have you ever observed how children behaves? They are always quick to re strategize whatsoever action they are doing that is not getting them results. And to couple it up, they are quick to forget and move on.A child is persistent and always relentless. He wants a candy, he's gonna come up with thousand of idea to get it AND get it from YOU.

Funny as it sounds, that's how our relationship should be with our heavenly father. Jesus said repeated that only the person who are like the children are liken to heavenly dwellers. You get that! There is no room for strife in kids neither is it in heaven. I have written a previous post here on how we are to relate with God as sheep's while with the devil as lions. Children are quick to believe no matter what they have been taught. So are we all if we are to remain in Gods service. Believing his words no matter how ridiculous it is to your human thinking.Think of this:- trying to understand the salvation message with the human mind is garbage. That a man you don't know has paid the price for what you cannot see. But faith is rooted in childlikeness that bears adult result. Eph 2:8 says its by faith we are saved, not by works least any man should boost.

GOD EXPECTS TOTAL DEPENDENCE from us. Yes, you are his baby. Begin to see yourself as Gods baby, then grow in the path he mapped out for you in hs word and become the adult that the kingdom of darkness fears. Don't be like Eli, 1 Sam 2:27-36 and 1 Sam 3:18, he saw what his sons where doing, he was repeatedly warned but he felt there was no remedy. But the same scenario played out with job (Job 1:5) and Hezekiah (2 king 20:1-4) and their action were different and hence produced different results. That reminds us that God is an individualistic God, he works with us the way we want/believe. In the case of Job, he was constantly making atonement for his son's sin and Hezekiah turned to reason with God. In Isaiah 1:18 and 41:21, we see God asking us to produce our course and reason with him. Hezekiah did just that, he activated Gods word and got a better deal.

But here comes the catch, you must produce your course, when things aren't going well in your life, what good deeds do you fall back on as your leaverage. yes its not by work but you are Gods child and even children have chores and expectations from their parents. Have you fulfilled that expectation? Remember its never late with God, you can retrace now. Never feel too sinful to go back to God. Slalom.
