Checking into Gods Presence...
How do we live within the Lord's Provision? Do we grow in the Knowledge of the Provisions of God with contempt or contentment?
Let me assure you that the simple drive/nudge we have in our basic instinct in the direction of contempt or contentment can be attributed to the challenges we suffer within His Provisions.
Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden treated the Provisions of God with contempt, they fell from their provisions of grace and today we still suffer the consequences.
In like manner, Cain was subdued; he became so jealous about his brother's provision to the extent that he loathed him with passion. Within his provision, he allowed his passion to jade him until he became a killer.
On the other hand, do you have the habit of tampering with the Provisions of God? This is not new. Sarah did in Genesis 16:2 by introducing Hagar unto Abraham so that through her she can now have a child. It became a real family affair that we often quote in the 21st century, but we forget in most cases that many follow the same ploy in different area directly or indirectly.
How do you feel, when a black man/woman suddenly wants to change her skin to be white in complexion? When we are contemptuous toward His Provisions, we often look at His Works with disdain.
It shows dis-contentment on a very large scale which drives away the Spirit of Praise in us. When this happens, Satan flourish in our hearts and the evil spirit rides on different heights in our minds.
A preacher quipped “If you use any of God's Provisions carelessly, it will later hunt/hurt you in life. God had given you His Provisions. Be content with them and give Him praise.
I pray to God to lead and direct our hearts towards the needs to reap from His provision in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen
