God hates backsliders of faith in His beloved Son Jesus Christ, whom He sent as an offering of His love and compassion, for we were lost in our transgressions without hope, but Jesus came that we might know Him and the Father and the Holy Spirit as never before, and the Scriptures are His gift to us to set us the example for life’s unending parallel of hope, unified to Him the Lord God Almighty.
Many
people are offended at Christianity, because to them life is what they make of
it, but the scarcity of mind, will and emotions and knowledgeable acts of
wisdom, only comes about when God is not present in their life.
We
as Christians do not have this struggle of scarcity, for God supplies for our
needs as He has quoted in (Psalm 127 NKJV) “Unless the Lord builds the house,
they labour in vain who build it; unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman
stays awake in vain. It is vain
for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so
He gives His beloved sleep. Behold,
children are a heritage from the Lord.”
We must never be vain about the amount of children we have, for God has
intended each and every one of them to bring happiness and joy into our lives
as an inheritance of His love, to grow them and feed them on unconditional
love, but scarcity will rob them of that if we belong to ourselves and not give
out freely, for God gave freely of His Son and the love He shared through His
Son out to all who came to Jesus knowing fully well they would receive love and
healing freely, the only requirement was their faith alone in Jesus to do the
necessary things for them to be free of their scarcity.
Scarcity
means (not plentiful or abundant, wanting).
This would account for people never being satisfied, and always wanting
more. They struggle to make ends meet,
yet their family is the one that suffers the most, because whilst they are out
trying to make their way financially, they are missing the most important fact
of life – Jesus is and always will be our provider if we let Him. This means not losing time spent with our
loved ones, but relying on God to supply from the scarcity – gain and His
favour of abundance, for He tells us through Jesus, “Come to Me, all of you who
are weary and carry burdens, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28
NKJV). This rest He speaks about is the
rest of peace in knowing all is well, for Jesus will provide as we sleep (Psalm
127:2 NKJV).
People
who are offended rarely see good, only the hardship and struggle to keep what
they have going, and miss out on sharing with others who rely and trust on God
for their needs, making them offended to see goodness ever coming to those who
believe and wait on God to provide for them.
I am one of those who rely totally on God’s
provisions for me and my family’s needs and have been in the firing line of
those who ridicule me for the way I live trusting that, “God is, and God will
provide!” But just like Jesus, I pay no
heed to them for
I know what my Saviour has done and is doing every single day of my life for me
and my family and without effort. I just
cast all my problems and burdens on Him as the psalmist King David wrote his
(Psalm 68:19 GNT) for us to be plentiful and reassured of God’s provision
always, for He promised that He would never leave us or abandon us as is
written in (Hebrews 13:6 NKJV) “So we boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I
will not fear. What can man do to
me?” This then is my post, to love and
obey the teachings set by Jesus for us to follow and to believe His Word “the
Bible” in its entirety and not be offended as many who have walked away from
their faith, only to live up to vain and scarcity in their lives of
hopelessness.
Jesus
is our hope and it’s only knowing Him through our faith in Him, that all things
are made possible to those who trust and wait patiently, never giving up on
their desires, and He will fulfil them, for we have only one purpose in life
and that is to honour and obey His Word, and all will be well with us and our
family.
People who are vain, promise, but never fulfil
them. Unlike God who cannot lie (Titus
1:2 NKJV). Let’s come to terms with this
now. I believe God is, and God will
provide, but many are offended by this, and all I know is the truth – that God
is, and God will provide. For those who
have backslidden from their faith – it is never too late to admit their
scarcity is due to a lack of faith in Jesus to supply for their needs, for
Jesus is and always will be the Saviour of the world, the Redeemer of all
losses, especially loss of faith brings in Him to be without hope or a future
prospect of goodness and His mercies which are new every morning to us, when we
turn 180 degrees from our ways – to face Jesus and His rewards for diligently
serving Him in truth and love of mind, will and emotions and knowledgeable acts
of wisdom under His leadership in our lives, letting go of all vain desires,
for the simple life of pleasure and gratitude in all His provisions for us, for
remember one thing – Jesus came that we might have the fullness of the life He
gives in the abundance of His will for us to choose life in Him, not apart from
Him any longer, so let’s make a commitment now of faith in Him, to serve Him
only as our
Lord and Saviour, as follows –
”Lord
Jesus I truly am sorry for my backslidden faith in you. I have gone astray and have lived a life of
scarcity obsolete from you. Help me
Jesus to know you fully and I now open my heart to receive you as my Lord and
Saviour. Give me the ability through the
Holy Spirit’s gifts of wisdom and knowledge to not live apart from you ever
again, but to invite you to take hold of my life which is yours, and everything
I have is yours, including the family you have given me, thankyou Father,
thankyou Jesus, thankyou Holy Spirit, Amen!
So be it Lord Jesus, God is, and God will provide!”
