DEAR LORD, THIS AFFLICTION MUST STOP

Post date: May 21, 2013 4:54:16 AM

Irrespective of any situation, God will never force Himself into any one’s life, family, finances and into any location; He only goes in and takes over through that person’s personal acceptance, a willing and a genuine invitation. Whenever He is allowed into any one’s life, He also steps in any prevailing situation in that life with the express intent and ability to make a very remarkable and admirable good difference. God cannot dwell in you and leave you the same forever; He cannot dwell in you while afflictions take control of your life indefinitely. In the package of His salvation to you was the grace for happiness, fulfillment and admirable changes and the devil does not want to see that in you; you must wake up and demand that grace, and the fullness of the package of your salvation to begin to happen in your life.

Where God dwells, He always in all circumstances, in all locations, in all professions and in all lives, take along with Him great and positive changes irrespective of the evil effect of the past, the present, the personal, the inherited and the ancestral wrong doing that had held you captive and irrespective of the their experienced consequences. We read: “Keep and protect me, O God, for in You I have found refuge, and in You do I put my trust and hide myself. I say to the Lord, You are my Lord; I have no good beside or beyond You. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good heritage. I have set the Lord continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; my body too shall rest and confidently dwell in safety. For You will not abandon me to Sheol, neither will You suffer Your holy one to see corruption. You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore.” Psalm 16:1-2, 6-11

The devil is definitely stronger than you in all ways, but he is no match to your redeemer Jesus Christ in all things. Irrespective of the intent, craftiness, and power of the devil against your life; his afflictions shall never take its permanent root in you, in your business, in your family and in your finances. Whatever he may say, do and feel concerning you, he is totally subject to the higher authority in Jesus Christ.

You may have been a failure yesterday, but you will never remain a failure forever; you may have been denied your dreamed, desired placement and promotion yesterday, you will never be denied forever. You may have been disappointed yesterday, that also will never be permanent. Cries are always painful, but cries, sorrows and frustrations will never last forever in your life.

The scriptural assurance for you today is that, God’s anger over and against you is over, so all forms of afflictions from all quarters must also stop: “O my people in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrians when they oppress you with rod and club as the Egyptians did long ago. In a little while my anger against you will end, and then my anger will rise up to destroy them. The Lord of Heaven’s Armies will lash them with his whip, as he did when Gideon triumphed over the Midianites at the rock of Oreb, or when the Lord’s staff was raised to drown the Egyptian army in the sea. In that day the Lord will end the bondage of his people. He will break the yoke of slavery and lift it from their shoulders.” Isaiah 10:24-27

Because God did not forsake Jacob and has not forsaken you, all day and night afflictions in your life, work, home; all forms of loneliness, emptiness, joblessness, homelessness, lack of direction, motivation, result oriented drives, desires, genuine and lack of sincere and godly help must stop. When Jacob cried, his known, unknown and uncertainties of what life holds for him in the future stopped and God gave him assuring a revelation that kept him hopeful and strong to see a better and purposeful future. When Jabez cried to God, his affliction ended. When Hanna cried in the church, her affliction, shame and bareness stopped. By reason of God’s salvation and relieving grace upon your life, your current affliction must also stop. For Prayers Click here
