Who is the Cause- God, The Enemy or You?
It is always easy to trust God when things are going well in your life, but how do you react in times of trials? Do you blame God, the enemy or yourself? Sela!
It is certainly true that the road to success is never as smooth as one may imagine. Likewise, your christian walk of faith will have some bumps. Meanwhile, you need to stay focus and daring. For it is the same that builds you up.
Many are quick to apportion blame, making loose statements like "oh God, why me?" and sometimes innocently accusing the enemy for something he has less knowledge about.
Oh yes, the enemy may have a hand in your predicament, but are you sure that he would have had a hand in it if you had not given him the chance? Don't you think your actions may have triggered him to have that advantage? Think about this carefully.
We mostly cloud ourselves with so many desires and actions without critically considering their impacts on our lives. Why? Because, we are mainly concerned about the immediate satisfaction at the expense of future sustenance.
Friend, there is nothing easy as the word easy in life. And God will never lead you astray as his child. He will never take you anywhere without sustaining you. Likewise, the enemy can never have absolute control over your life, if you do not give him room to operate.
Remember, God has given you power to overcome all temptations (1 Corinthians 10:13, Luke 10:19). And that power is in Christ Jesus (his son), who is the word of God.
Therefore, you need to constantly feed on the word, so that your ways will be guided (2 Timothy 3:16-17). With this, the enemy will have no way to invade your life, because you shine as the light in you (John 1:1-5).
My dear friend, do not be in a haste to always blame or judge the situation. Instead of prejudging, introspect deeply to find out the cause, and re-strategize your defensive mechanisms to win in all things. Your victory will surely come if you remain skeptical and teachable. Be Wise!
Stay Blessed!
