BELIEVE SEE OR SEE BELIEVE?



Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

John 20:29


In Luke chapter 4, after that Jesus had fasted 40 days and night and had been tempted by the devil. He went into the synagogue to read scriptures, there He found where it was written about Him, His purpose; after which He began teaching all that were present, and they were all astonished at the wisdom that proceeded from Him. But then they questioned His capacity, His personality and His origin, in verse 22; 

"... And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?"


You see, they delve back into the natural. And Jesus said in Luke 4:23, 

"And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country."


People believe more in the natural, because that's how the world has trained everyone to reason. "seeing is believing" but it's the other way round spiritually, "believing is seeing" you believe to receive, Mark 11:24.

The people in question wanted to see the acts of God more convincingly before they can believe. The truth is you can never get enough to convince you to believe. You actually do it by faith.

A time is coming, the things you scoff today would be out of reach tomorrow, when you're in desperate need of them, if precautions aren't taken today.


"And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it." Luke 17:22


Jesus is Lord!

Strong 2020

Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: - 1 Corinthians 15:36 No seed that is afraid of being planted, will ever think itself qualified to ever produce more fruits, it will die alone. Every seed that must reproduce, must of a necessity go through the process of plantation, if the future is in view. It is hard, yes. But that is the only way to duplicate oneself. John 12:24 says,  "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit."  In this year 2020, if you seriously care, you need to die to self, and alive to God, in other to impact your world. Living a life of mediocre, will not benefit you, and certainly no one else around. Strong? Yes! Why not, if it will get your attention. So, no matter how you have ignored God's instructions until now, make a quality decision to realign, this new year, and start early. Happy New Year, once again...

EXIGENCY

  You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Amos 3:2.  Ever wondered how come so and so did such and got away with it, but when you attempted it, you got cut and punished for it? There could be chances you are separated to God as a chosen vessel [not certainly, but likely]. "if yes" , as a result, you can't do what you like, only what is permitted. The society have drifted to the place where people don't talk about purpose anymore except their individualistic goals. Well, if you came from God, He already has a plan for you, it is suppose to be your primary assignment in life to discover it. Not to ignore it, in pursuit of your own self centered aspirations, it may not go down well. Some of the reasons you were probably rejected in certain areas in life is not because you aren't qualified, but because you're out of place. When God chose Abram, he didn't succeed in anything else even at 75yrs...
