Woke up this morning desperately praying for answers on, “the true meaning of life is?” I am angry, frustrated and bitter at myself as well as all human beings. “What are we doing here in this and with this thing called life.” I am tired and bitter at mankind. Why, you ask? Because we are the most unchangeable, but predictable species ever created. Amazingly we see the extinctions of animal and all sorts of other creatures, but not us. We keep on existing to fit all circumstances of times through evolution. Yet nothing about our behavior, characteristics, mindset ever seems to change time and time again, no matter how much everything else around us does. The Bible holds the record of this, especially towards each other and most of all concerning the Almighty God. It make sense that we could never change our relationships towards one another if we can’t even get it right with God. Not being able to get right with the Lord is our greatest obstacle. If we get right with God like Jesus, the the devil would no longer exist. His existence is predicted on us and our obedience to God.
How can you be selfless in a world full of greed and selfishness. No matter how you try to escape it, the world is infectious, and unless you have a great immune faith system, you’re going to get infected. It’s a battle field when knowing to do right and it becomes a struggle for the fear of critical rejection and you’re forcibly turned away or imprisonment of the mind, heart and spirit. Scriptures declares in Matthew 7:12 “Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. But yet I see people who like receiving and not giving, hating, murdering, being prejudice to one another, stealing, committing adultery, gossiping all kinds of evil that there’s no way would be acceptable if reciprocal to themselves.
It angers me to see that we live in an enlightened world where nothing is hide from us, we know right and wrong. Yet our blatant disregard either through ignorance or just selfishness, the impact of our cruel actions towards others. I pray to God all the time to forgive me of my sin I do today, yesterday and the future, because no matter how faithful I am sin will always find a way to get in and it doesn’t knock to enter. I feel within my spirit that sin just gets activated, if I don’t get a hold of my soul when frustration, anger and sadness creeps in. No matter how ‘Holy’ I may feel at time those unguarded moments of weakness gives way. The devil made me do it is no excuse for a Christian, sorry! As a Christian we learn in James 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Ephesians 6:11-18 “Put on the whole armour of God.”
I refuse to believe that Jesus’s death on the cross is for us to continue in sin and believe His work is incomplete, that sin still rules, “The devil is a liar” remember that. We must fight to stand our grounds and rebuke him, don’t give in, call on the name of Jesus Mark 16:17. If we are still sinning it is because it’s the residue of sin lingering to get hold of the the weak. We’ve been given the power and authority not over each other, but over the wickedness of the devil. Luke 9:1
