Don’t Get Settled: Believe Something!

Posted on May 2, 2014 by SoSpression

Zephaniah 1:12
And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The Lord will not do good, neither will he do evil.

Its not godly at all to sit back think that God isn’t going to do anything. God is pleased by faith and by people that live by their faith – what they believe. God is pleased by people that believe He is real and active, not by those that just want to get settled down in comfort and wait for nothing to happen.

You’ve got to believe that God is going to do something good in response to obedience, and/or that He is going to do something evil in response to disobedience. The closer you get to God, the more you know how active He is.

Can Gods Will for my Life be Delayed?

Posted on April 25, 2014 by SoSpression

There is a scripture about hasting the coming of the Lord in 2 Peter. I know the Lord responds well to faith and prayer (Luke 18), so it would make sense that a lack of prayer and obedience could delay your personal effectiveness in Gods story.

However God always gets His will done overall in His timing. His individual will vs His overall will may work differently, since His individual will is dependent on your individual free will, while He can get His overall will done thru any number or combination of prophets and obedient servants.
