God cares for you 2.


“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.”
1 Peter 5:6-7(KJV)

A lot of people are not humble because they do not believe that God cares about them. Some of them believe that God takes time so they manipulate their own way in other for them to get to where or whatever they want quicker.

1 Peter 5:8 says, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” From this scripture, we see that satan cannot come into your life if he does not have the opportunity. Satan is an opportunist. He has got no authority to come into your life unless you open the door to him.

1 Peter 5:9 says, “Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.” When you are going through some challenges satan will come to you and tell you that God doesn't care about you because of the challenges that you are going through. Or he may ask you, “If God cares about you then why are you going through this?” When you believe that lie, you will stay longer in that difficult place. You must believe in the love of God if you are going to make progress, because the Bible says that faith worketh by love (Galatians 5:6).
In 1 Peter 5:10, the Bible says, “But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.” I want you to know that no matter what you are going through, you must be confident of one thing in your heart, that God is perfecting, establishing, strengthening, and will surely settle you. Romans 8:28 says, “… that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”

In Ephesians 1:11, the Bible lets us know that God works all things according to the counsel of His will. So, trust God and be confident that things will work out for your good. Therefore, keep on believing and speaking it.

CONFESSION
 I declare that all things are working together for my good. Because I love God and I am the called according to His purpose. I am a victor and not a victim. I refuse to consider the negative things that I see. But, I look at the things which are revealed to me in the word of God. For the negative things which I see are changing to correspond to the things which are revealed to me in the word of God.

For further study read:
Romans 8:35-39.

DOING THE WORD
Resist the lies of satan and he will flee from you.
