Take note of the following words, "What things soever", "All things",
"Whatsoever", "What you will", and "Everything". All of these words
came out of Jesus' mouth and they're all about us. Simply put, God
wants you to have whatever you want to have.
I learnt from God's Word that you can ask God for whatever good thing
you want from Him and get it. Some people, in their limited
understanding, said, "You can only get from God whatever He wants you
to have - not what you want!" Please note that the latter was an
addition: not what you want. God didn't say anything close to that.
It was added by those who said it in other to console themselves where
their needs went unmet.
God is glorified when He meets your needs and provides for you all the
good things you desire of Him.
A worship band was going to practice during a heavy downpour of rain
in their city. They prayed and trusted God to keep all their
equipments dry as they carried them in an open roof truck through the
city. Not a single drop of rain fell on the equipments! God kept His
end of the bargain as they trusted Him.
The rain began to fall long before they prayed. They moved into the
rain by faith and God honoured them. Faith works all the time and it's
not reasonable. Faith beats reason.
For as long as Peter kept away from reason or logic he walked on
water. But when logic got involved he began to sink while Jesus
remained standing on the same sea by faith. Faith and logic or reason
can't mix.
Remain blessed till next posting.
