Worshipping God is an all time law everyone must obey
Exodus 12
14. “This is a day to remember. Each year, from generation to generation, you must celebrate it as a special festival to the lord. This is a law for all time."
I don't really know what covers people from believing who God is? It does not sometimes matter how educated or biblically informed someone is! Year in year out, generation after generation, there is always some threads and elements of people who are known for refusing to accept that God is Creator of All Things! It does not matter to them the destruction caused by their unbelief, and this is what we are counternancimg today! You could have read this same scripture verse sometime back, just like I did. But there is something which has struck me and unavoidably unleashed great fear in my thoughts. I have imagined how mankind repeat sad stories of their disobedience to God. If Christ Jesus did grow up among mankind, (Luke 2:52), we could be having excuses to say it never happened, we did not see Him behave like we do! And this is exactly what I see blinding so many people. We read our Bible verses as if we are reading a fictional story! The truth in the Word of God is hidden behind our man's fallen idiosyncrasies. How can we make excuses to the One who knows everything about us and about everyone at any given time?
Probably your question now is, 'If it is God who makes all these things to happen to me, what power do I have to stop it from happening?'. What a good question you have! But it can simply be answered in very simple terms. If you answer this question with yourself being very conscious you know who God is, your answer lies in this question, 'How much do I believe there is God?'. As I always say, we tend to have this oscillating behaviour when it comes to our faith in who God is, and it usually stems from our separating Jesus Christ from God, the Holy Sprit from God. We see the Three Divine Powers the same way we see ourselves in a family set up. We don't understand why they are presented as three despite their 'Holy Trinity' disposition! Are you ready to accept that God has all the Power that makes you who you are? God gave mankind instructions about what should or shouldn't be done. When I steal knowing very well God abhors my stealing behaviour, who do I have to blame if things don't work out for my good? Dear believer in Christ Jesus, take a stance today to follow what God says is the good thing for you to do to please Him. Don't be the Pharaoh of today (Exodus 10:1-2) who refuses to be consistent in your worship of God. God spoke a long time ago about His grand plan for making or creating a human being like Him (Genesis 1:26-27). You are of God, a chosen generation, who even when others are living in darkness, you always have God's light shining on you. I hope you find confidence in consistently believing God stands with those who don't oscillate between believing and not believing in Him in order to suit whatever situation they are going through. Allow God to do all things through the Power He has given you in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:13). Good morning believer in Christ Jesus?
