CREATOR IN THE CHAOS


We all go through hard and tough times in our lives. In these situations we often tend to ask “why me?”or “is this really happening to me?”or “I wish this was just a dream ”, but the truth is you can’t change the past or its consequences but what you can do change is your next action. Many at times we wonder and even question God why He allows such situations in our lives. It  is true that it is hard to go through such situations. You  can’t always ask the question ‘why’ to God cause you just won’t get any answer. The truth is, it’s not about what we go through but about what we become through the chaos and struggle. Let me explain what I truly mean by saying this. Let me take the example of moses and the Israelites coming out of Egypt.

Now when Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, even though it was near; for God said, The people might change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt. Hence God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea; and the sons of Israel went up in martial array from the land of Egypt.                                Exodus 13:17-18

If we see in this passage, it talks about how God leads the people not through the land of the philistines but through the wilderness. Maybe similarly, GOD is allowing the chaotic and hard times in your life so He can just make you much stronger than what you are now. The people of Israel, in the later part of their journey wage many wars and win them and only then they go to the promised land that God gives them. I believe if they had gone out of Egypt through the land of the philistines, they would have just died there. The ways that God is allowing you to endure is for the greater good and for showing a different aspect of God. It will just make you stronger.

There is also another truth to situations like these, say someone is coming to you and asking you for advice about a very similar situation that they are going through. If you have not gone through the situation then I don’t think there is anyway by which you can lead them in the right way of truth. Your path through the wilderness will not only build you, but maybe build someone else’s life in the future.

A WALK ON WATER

Hey, guys hope y'all are doing good. I’m going to be sharing what God is speaking to me in the blog every week, so stay tuned and come back to get a word of encouragement and revelation from God. Also, the blog is in the form of a podcast. You can find the links to the podcast in the podcast tab. All of this aside, let’s get to the blog. When you think of the season that we as the whole world are going through with the widespread of the covid virus, it’s as though we were given no time to even think about what was happening. It was like a wave that hit us, we never expected. A similar situation is where the disciples find themselves in Matthew 14:22 Immediately after this, Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and cross to the other side of the lake, while he sent the people home. The word immediately shows the transition from one of the greatest miracles performed by Jesus to a stormy and wavy sea they never expected. They had no time to process the miracle, ye...

JESUS 2.0

  When we say the word ‘Jesus’ what are some of the things that come to our mind. If we are to list them it would be something like, ·       God ·       Church ·       Gospel ·       Worship ·       Christianity ·       Christian ·       Deity  And more ideas similar to what I have listed here. All of the above-listed ideas and things do tell something about Jesus and is a part of who He is and what He does. When I typed Jesus in google this is what came up:   So, this tells us that google identifies Jesus as ·       A statue ·       A statement ·       A movie ·       Maybe some book ·       And much more if we scroll further Even the bible tells a lot about Jesus from start t...

HIS WILL. BEAR FRUIT

Doing the will of God may sound so easy but in action, it seems very hard. The task although is simple it takes a lot of gut and grit to complete the task the way God wants it to be done. Why I say this is because sometimes doing the will of God means less of my joy and happiness, it means to sacrifice some things I love a lot, it means to throw the things I enjoy being with, it means the end of certain relationships and so on. Often times we tend to wonder why the will of God is the way it is. But there is a way to do this “will of God”. In John 15:16 Jesus says this 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit-fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.                                                                   ...
