CLING TIGHTLY TO YOUR BELIEF

 

Hey friends, how have you been? It's been a while, hence I have decided to pour my heart before we continue the series.

This morning I thought of this . Have you ever been on a train? If yes, great and if no, we are still on the same page. If you have been on a train you must have noticed how wind rages and here is what I have noticed. No matter the raging of the wind people often hold closely to a rod just for support.  Oftentimes this wind moves them to and fro and even then they still hold tightly to the rod.

What wind is ranging in your life at the moment?  Just like the train, what rod are you holding onto? Here, the rod is symbolic to your FAITH/ BELIEF ( Hebrew 11:1).

At some point in life. Life comes as a raging wind. Like the wind in the train, God often uplift us with a rod which his WORD. What keeps you going in the midst of the wind is the WORD ( Psalm 119:114).

When challenges arise God isn't asking us to be quick to figure things out but to cling tightly to his word. This week seems to be a very challenging one for me. While in the storm it looked like there was no hope but I remember the word of God to me 'BOLAJI, YOUR HOPE IS FOUND NOT IN THE WIND BUT IN THE ASSURING WORD OF GOD’. You may ask? Did it work? Yes, it did. At every point where it looks like a wind, there is often a demand to trust / hold clingy to your belief in another level.

What are you holding onto? THE ASSURING WORD OF GOD OR THE WIND?

I'm super excited to be back after a 3 week break. Watch out for the continuation of the series next week.

DO YOU KNOW GOD, BUT FEELS LIKE HE IS DISTANT ?

Hello friends,

Today, I would like to thank you for your consistency. It was led in my heart to start this series 'DO YOU KNOW GOD, BUT FEELS LIKE HE IS DISTANT? ‘. Don't miss any of this series. Also, I have another good news. I have decided to share more contents here on this blog on leadership and my lifestyle starting from the month of October. We are sure to have a good time.  

PART 1

Someone said this yesterday, 'I know God, but it feels like he is distant’. I couldn't but write about my journey in Christianity which is still much of a work in progress.  Have you ever found yourself asking this question, is he really for me or against me? Don't beat yourself down.I was once there. Challenges of life throw this question even to the most strongest in faith.

Knowing God  is a REVELATION which is deeply seated in his love for the WORLD. Here, I mean not just his love for the world but his love for you. Not a crowd but rather an individual. You might ask how you fix your gaze in a waging storm where it all seems like he is silent.  God's silence has a deeper meaning which often signifies REST ( Matthew 29:11).

Season comes, season goes. I remember years back, there was a particular season I felt was God really for me?  Why would he have allowed this? All I did then was questioning and not asking the right questions. When life throws lemon, what humans do often isn't to ask God questions but rather questioning him. It was quite a huge season for me but here is what I saw even after questioning, there's a way He comes comforting me, at times through his WORD, at times through PEOPLE. Here was when I understood that trying to know God in a spectacular way makes us think he is distant.

Psalms 46:1
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

God isn't human and that's why he uses the foolish things to prove to the wise that he is God. Knowing God isn't a feeling but trusting his words.

Looking for the spectacular only gets us far away from God. Knowing God is having a relationship with God. Not like the way the world knows him but the way he chose to be revealed to you.
