Everything has already been decided. It was known long ago what each person would be. So there’s no use arguing with God about your destiny.-Ecclesiastes 6:10

Daily Devotion: Can God Be Clearly Seen In Your Life?

Sometimes we wonder… God why? Well, the answer is what portal in your life is welcoming unnecessary warfare? Is it the music you listen to? Is it the pictures that you post that are inappropriate? Is it the shirts that you are wearing that do not exemplify Christ? That’s the answer. If you want and need God to move in your life. Then you have to make a clear path for him to have his way in your life. Keep going and make it clear and make plain to God that you need God to move in a quick and speedy way.

Revelation 5:5
Verse Concepts
and one of the elders *said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals.”
3 Then God ordered me, “Start all over: Love your wife again,
your wife who’s in bed with her latest boyfriend, your cheating wife.
Love her the way I, God, love the Israelite people,
even as they flirt and party with every god that takes their fancy.”
2-3 I did it. I paid good money to get her back.
It cost me the price of a slave.
Then I told her, “From now on you’re living with me.
No more whoring, no more sleeping around.
You’re living with me and I’m living with you.”
* * *
4-5 The people of Israel are going to live a long time
stripped of security and protection,
without religion and comfort,
godless and prayerless.
But in time they’ll come back, these Israelites,
come back looking for their God and their David-King.
They’ll come back chastened to reverence
before God and his good gifts, ready for the End of the story of his love.
