God is Not a Magician or a Miracle Microwave Machine

“Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience, But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” – James 1:3-4

EXPLORATION

Why are you blaming God for your situations, when HE has not draw you into it in the first place. The Book of James reveals to us that God never tempt us with evil, “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.” – James 1:13-14  

INSPIRATION

I wonder what many believers thinks when they are beginning to complain—blaming God for not blessing them or answer their prayers, whereas GOD in HIS Faithfulness to HIS WORD has done exactly what they have asked of HIM in prayers. The Word and promises of God must come to pass in our lives.

The Prophet Isaiah was consumed by the Spirit of God, He declared the mind of God saying, "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” - Isaiah 55:11

People of God! When we are not aligning ourselves to the timing of God concerning our lives, we become impatient. You see, the impatience of this generation is like a city that approved a new construction project to expand their city major highway—build new bridges to advance and upscale city lifestyle, and ease traffic. And the construction work started but the city has to reduce lanes of the present major city highway because they don’t want to shut it down for the construction work, hence the work is expected to go on for 2 to 3 years. But the residents of the city begins to file complains every day that things are very hard—the construction work is disturbing their business.

They cannot even endure the time that it will take to make things better for all of them. They have forgotten that the construction is for their benefit, for the advancement of life, and to give many of them a quality life. Such people only think of themselves “NOW.” They refuse to think of the long term blessings that are about to flow, and overflow to them. Wow! How short sighted many of us are spiritually? 

Beloved, if only you know that God has you in mind, working on your situation and circumstances to make life glorious for you—your foundation has been so corrupted that God cannot build on it, but HE has to PULL it down and build for you a NEW FOUNDATION of Life. The Foundation that can sustain the kind of Blessings GOD has ordained for you from the Beginning of Creation. It’s time for you to be Patient.

Remember the Bible says, 

“And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” – Romans 5:3-5

Esau was not patient enough to be the carrier of God’s promises and blessing so he settled for less by giving up his birthright. The Bible says,

“...And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.” - Genesis 25: 29-34

Don’t settle for less, Let God work out patience in you. Patience will not kill you, it will produce in you experience (maturity of the Spirit mind) that is need to handle the sacred things of the Lord. And the same experience makes our hope sound and strong.

And the Bible says, “…hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” – Romans 5:3-5   

This week: Think about it! The Lord GOD is doing ALL for your benefits that HIS Holy Name may be glorified in your Life, and that HIS JOY may be FULL in your Life. Amen!

Remember, God is looking out for your interest! Your task is to be Grateful and Patient. Don’t settle for less; let your faith rise again. Your patience could be the key to your Deliverance and Breakthrough.

The Bible says, “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” - James 1:5-8 

You are blessed, we love you!
