Carnal Christians and unbelievers try
to fix their problems through worldly means, natural ways. They do
like the rest of the world. If they have relationship problems with
other people they want to talk it right, preachers want to preach it
right. Religious people apply a Bible verse and they want to
manipulate people by using scripture, or they attend some magical
seminar to sort out their relationships. They might go to the
psychologist and talk about it or they go on medication. When the
carnal Christian is sick then he goes to the doctor or he swallows a
pill.
But the child of God PRAYS, he PRAYS
about all his problems and he submits himself and his problem to
Jesus Christ who KNOWS all things and who can fix all things. That is
the difference between a true child of God and a carnal Christian who
is the same as an unbeliever because he does not really believe that
God can do anything about his problem. He has either got to get help
from outside, from some professional or he will try to fix it himself
because he does not KNOW Jesus Christ nor does he TRUST Jesus Christ.
A child of God, a true follower of
Jesus Christ firstly submits himself to the Lordship of Jesus Christ
and asks the Lord to examine HIM, to make sure that HE is in the
faith, that HE is in the will of God, say:”Lord examine me, test me
and try me, see if there is in ME an evil way. Please lead ME on the
right way.” And then I can with confidence take all my problems to
Jesus and submit them to HIM, put all my problems under HIS LORDSHIP
under HIS GOVERNMENT and TRUST HIM that He will fix it. If I do not
trust Him and I try to fix it myself HE WILL NOT FIX IT because He
does not share His glory with anybody.
A true child of God submits everything,
all His problems, his whole life to Jesus Christ and then he himself
stays focused on Jesus and makes sure that he stays in the will of
God. Jesus said:”Seek ye FIRST the Kingdom of God and His
righteousness and all the other things will be added unto you.”
Don't try and fix it, pray it right but
FIRST submit yourself to Jesus and then he will firstly fix YOU and
He will fix your problem.
May Jesus bless you.
Amen Brother...
