God ordains wilderness experiences
for his glory. We fret, we worry, and sometimes we want to
take our own lives when we come before mountains that cause
us to move from our comfort zone. If God allows us to stay
in our comfort zone how are we to trust him, depend on him,
or allow his word to be planted in our lives in order for
it to take root? Our heavenly Father knows the outcome of
our every trial. We should fret not? Why not? Because God
is in control. If you think back on thimgs that has happen
in your life you will see that God forwarned you of what was
about to come. He let you know that a mountain is about to
arise in your path. There was a sign given to you by God,
you just overlooked it. God does not let anything take us
by surprise. He forewarns us so that we may begin to fast,
pray, and seek him more.
When the adversary chooses to try the *called* of God, the
Holy Spirit arises ever so strong within us to alert us that
a storm is on the horizon. In instances such as this the Holy
Spirit serves as an "Meteorologist" in alerting
us that a storm is brewing. God gives his permission for the
trials because he knows the end as well as the beginning;
he knows the outcome of our trials and tribulations. We should
thank God for the adversary because God uses our trials and
tribulations to advance our Spiritual growth and Spiritual
maturity in him. This is why the adversary pulls out his best
when it comes to the *called* of God. He knows that if he
succeeds in deterring us from the will of God we are not accomplishing
what we were put here to accomplish. He desperately tries
to keep us from our purpose. Simply put, the adversary is
trying his best to stop us from receiving the promises of
God. It is up to us to beleive that greater he that is in
us, than he that is in the world; and we can do all things
through Christ who gives us strength.
But if we do all things through him, we must do all things
for him. The adversary is well aware that when we receive
the promises of God we are going to spread the word that God
keeps his promises, we grow spiritually, and we are going
to add members to the body of Christ. Our trials are the beginning
of our tribulations. This is the process of spiritual growth,
and spiritual maturity in Christ Jesus. This process equips
us with the means for Separation, Meditation, Revelation,
Organization, Amputation, Transformation, and lastly Restoration.
We are equipped with these 7 vital means in order to be transformed
from the children of God, to the Sons of God. This is the
only way the Restoration of the faith we had when we became
children of God is returned to us, we are restored back to
our original state of trusting God even more.
In our walk with God we allow the adversary to turn our mountain
moving faith we had from the beginning to dwindle to mustard
seed faith. God has given all of us a measure of faith and
by trusting in him, our faith should increase and not decrease.
We must trust God, if we trust him we have hope, if we have
hope we have faith, to have faith in him we must love him,
and to love him is to know him, intimately. He is one love,
true love, and he is real love. The Great I Am
I=innovator+creator=One Love/ GOD
A=arbitrator+mediator=True Love/ JESUS CHRIST
M=motivator+teacher=Real Love/ HOLY SPIRIT
Note: Even though the letter A is the first letter of the
Alphabet you can't see the A without the I.
