“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.”⁣
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭13:12‬ ‭NKJV‬‬⁣

We commit our ways to God, we ask Him to guide and reveal things to us but then we are hit by a wave of disappointment and confusion when things don’t seem to go the way we had envisioned. ⁣

Yet Jesus said:⁣
⁣
“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.”⁣
‭‭John‬ ‭15:18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬⁣

Psalms 34: 19 Says 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲 are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him from them 𝐚𝐥𝐥⁣

“Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.” ) No, despite all these things, 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐬.”⁣
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:35-37‬ ‭NLT‬‬⁣
⁣
The Bible is clear-there will be difficult times. We live in a fallen world, we have an enemy that is dedicated to killing, stealing and destroying.⁣
⁣
The great deception however is that instead of us to run to the One who has promised that we shall overcome and have overwhelming victory, we run away from Him and blame Him for things the devil has done to us.⁣
⁣
The only person having fun and enjoying the above scenario is… you guessed it-The devil.⁣

If your dad was Dangote it would be acceptable to believe that people would favour you because you were his child. You would also have no difficulty understanding and accepting that you had enemies that would come by virtue of the fact that you were his child. It would be on par for the course.⁣

⁣In fact, when an enemy raises his head it would be expected that you would run to your father for advice and strategies to deal with this threat. ⁣

God wants us to operate with Him from a place of intimacy and knowing. Knowing that He has got our back and He will equip us with all that we need to be overwhelmingly victorious.⁣
⁣
It’s time to come back.⁣
⁣
It’s time for honest conversations with Your Father.⁣
⁣
It’s time to bring down the walls.⁣
⁣
Let Him give you his perspective.⁣
Let Him share strategies with you that will make you victorious.⁣
⁣
Return to Your Father⁣
Return to Your First Love⁣
⁣
He’s calling you, how will you respond?
