GOD IS NOT IN CONTROL, YOU ARE.

I have heard people say “God is in control. It’s his fault, not my fault.” Understand that I didn’t write this to condemn any one – we’re all learning here – but to make you know that you are in control and to make you angry at Satan’s lies.

JESUSE said, "I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven ( He already did): and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Verily I say unto you, what things soever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and what things soever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." ( Matt 16: 19, 18:18)

So, you see? Everything lies in your hands. God has no say if you have no say. Whatever you bind, He binds. If you fail  to take charge of the affairs of your life and to put things in order, God will not come down to do it for. Understand that you are the commander and whatever you command is what God does. Heaven will not act if you refuse to command.

So wakeup to the "IN-CHARGE" that God has made you over your life and that of others. Refuse to accept the lies of the devil.  James said *“resist the devil and he will flee from you.”* But you won’t resist if you think God is doing the devil’s work; you won't bind if you accept the lies of the devil that God is making you sick, killing your kids, and robbing you blind.

The truth is God is not making you sick and poor! He is not the reason you lost your money, your job, your marriage, or your kids. These are the tragedies of a life cursed by Adam’s sin which Jesus has redeemed us from and Has given us power to rule in this world and authority to proclaim the good news of his kingship to all creation.

Are you sick? Don't seat down and keep quiet. Talk to your sickness about Jesus by whose stripes you are healed (1 Pet 2:24).

Are you poor? You are in control! Talk to your bank account about your rich King who became poor so that through his poverty you might become rich (2 Cor 8:9).

Have you been robbed, discouraged, and beaten by life? The power lies in your hands. So be like David and strengthen yourself in the Lord your mighty God and take control (1 Sam 30:6)

Jesus didn't come to help us understand why God never lifts a finger to help us? No! Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1John 3:8), And Has also given us power to control this world, in that, "what things soever we shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and what things soever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven"(Matt 18:18)

So, you see? You are in control, so go and take control.

Shalom.
