“Where there’s smoke, there’s fire”… that’s what the elders say. Meaning if there is a sign that something is wrong, then most likely something is wrong.

And it is absolutely no different in our lives. When we see things going wrong, things falling apart, things going from bad to worst, and you start to wonder why God is not answering and seems to not be listening. Just remember, God is not a monster who feels pleasure in your suffering. God wants to bring you out of the suffering more than you want to get out of it. 

Then why do so many peoples lives not bear fruit? Why are so many going through things and it seems God can’t or won’t hear them. The answer is in the sacred text; 

Then why do so many peoples lives not bear fruit? Why are so many going through things and it seems God can’t or won’t hear them. The answer is in the sacred text; 

 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, 
That it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, That it cannot hear. 
But your iniquities have separated you from your God;.. 
So that He will not hear. Isaiah 59:1-2 

I have no desire to accuse anyone, but what is written is written. Many times this is the problem. God wants to help, but a persons bad decisions and wrong ways of life are holding Him back. He has the desire to deliver them from the pit, but He needs them to be willing to change. To be willing to do things His way. 

Are you willing? Are you willing to let go of you pride, stubbornness, grudges, envy, etc. and do God’s way? If your answer is yes, then get ready to see great changes in your life. Because God is looking forward to helping you, He’s simply waiting on you to make a decision. 

May the God of the Bible Bless You
