I was reading in 2 Chronicles 33 12-13 where Manasseh humbled himself in prayer to GOD and was restored in HIS favor. Where he had tried to act without the HAND OF GOD he had fallen miserably short. When he had reached out in supplication to LOVE , he soon found his way out of captivity!!!
Oftentimes things are going good in our lives and it seems as though we can get by without talking to HIM on a daily basis . Nothing is further from the Truth!!! When we are content with our lives it is because of GOD!!! We should thank HIM in every conscious spare moment!!! To not do so would soon lead us to our own Babylon.
I can proudly say that the GOD of my ancestors is my GOD!!! My deliverance is because of HIM!!! I need to remember that simple fact ; every moment of every day!!!
WHAT AN AWESOME GOD!!!!!!! Mark
You are so right, Mark. It’s easy when things seem to be going well, and handling things seems well within our own abilities, to forget how much we need God.
Hey, maybe we just thought these things were easy because God was helping us, but then we started thinking, “Oh I can do this–no need to bother God with it,” 😆 and then guess what? CrRaSh!
I need Him EVERY hour (and minute and second and . . . )
Agreed Nothing compares to spending that time with Him each day – not only is it necessary for our spirit but it is a reminder of who is God and who isn’t. 🙂
