Hello dear brothers and sisters. I know how frustrating life can seem to be sometimes, to the point where we ask ourselves very pertinent questions like: When will it be my turn to experience all these good and great things that some people testify of.
Sometimes it could be people younger, less experienced and may be less fortunate by birth than ourselves. People less engaged in ministerial service than us. People who know less than we do. People with titles or better, people less recognized in the Christian environment than us. It may be people who can't even speak English, less write it. People who, however, bear witness to those blessings of God that still remain wishes or dreams for us: A good marriage, a great family, a graceful business, a beautiful house and other successes of various nature.
We start wondering whether it is really God who does this for those who talk about it or it is simply due to good luck. If it is God, then we do not understand how he can do it for all these people, close or less close to him than us, and rarely never do the same for us. Sometimes we come to the point of convincing ourselves that, these people always having a testimony to give, are in just "imbeciles", we think, the testimony is because they don't know better. In fact we think that these folks, are people who are content with the slightest incidental blow that seems to be leaning in their favor. So we come to a place where we no longer believe in the miraculous favor of God. We start thinking that everything comes down to the fruit of the sweat of our forehead. Is there not a saying that "the real magic is hard work"?
Yeah, the real magic is actually hard work. However, with God's touch mere hard work can receive a supernatural boost and give such great results that the pattern cannot be repeated. It's like a nation born in a single day. Only the spiritual can produce such results at such a speed. The logic of hard work can matter, yet its assiduity is here beaten and overshadowed by the miraculous. There is indeed a secret to live this kind of life.
This secret is called OBEDIENCE to God! It's a spiritual secret. It is a major key 🔑 to the gates of the kingdom. You may want to know more about the way it works. If that is the case comment below.
