"DISCERNMENT?" Huh!

 I think the toughest thing for us youths is to discern the will of God. I think the most confusing challenge a youth has to face is "Discerning".

How did we get here?

I searched my heart for answers but I keep stumbling upon puzzles! So I briefly would like to share my latest study and really hope sincere contributions will be made.

Galatians 5:22 but the fruits of the spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Long suffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance: against such there is no law.

Impatience!
Why are there more Joke of a Christian out there?

Indecisiveness.

Sensuality

Entanglement

Lust

Strive

Covetousness

Greediness

Ignorance

And the list is endless. How did we become like this!

How come two brothers are fighting over a Sister and they both said they heard GOD. How come a Pastor sees a vision and shares it and prophesies and the prophecy never comes to pass. How come our decision making is wrong.

How come our leaders encourage us to support the wrong politician.

How come a man is told that he should give his life to Christ and that after he does is Biz will boom! Instead when he does things are for the worst.

How come God said, seems more dangerous than suicide bomb(#BH)

I began to search scripture and analyse my own failings and I came to a series of conclusion.

The Grace of God that brings salvation as appeared to all men teaching them that denying ungodliness and worldly Lust we should live soberly, righteously and Godly in this present world,


No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.


It pleased God to send Jesus to us and show us a pattern for Living and the apostles as firstfruits of that life, and we've being giving the same scripts.

But over time the majority have settled for less and the minority have settled for more.

How did we get here, How did entanglement become our greater lot, How did lust master our body?


How did we lose the inner witness, or the leading of the spirit.I forgot to add to my list: Pride

Someone said pride is not only when you are puffy, but it is pride also to wallow in pity when God as forgiven you. It is pride to prefer condemnation over Liberty, to prefer sin over righteousness.




Hrgh!!! So how did we get here!
I don't know where to start but it has something to do with Fear, carelessness, care-freeness, nonchalance, laziness, carnality, strive, lust.

All this the apostles warned us against but we seemed to be cool with them and accommodate them, it's almost a myth to have totally clean thoughts throughout the day! Without fear, doubt and lust creeping in.

I ask again how did we get here?
When has it being this hard to hear from God. Or to walk by faith. While some Liberate us not to fear, to be bold and take giant strides without really spelling the whole to us nor teaching us how to land safely, Others seem to paint a picture of fear feasting on stories of those who didn't finish strong, such stories are sweet, because they flow in rhetorics.


The divorce, the suicides, the embezzlement, the homosexuality, the reprobation.

How In the name of Jesus did we get here? Is there still hope?

The only thing I can say is check the Gospel you heard and who preached it!

And see what Jesus, Apostles, and early church fathers really said what where the guidelines and then follow.

The Gospel is very simple and we've had so many fights disputing each other, but we all share this in common: Jesus Christ, Son Of God, Heaven, God, Disciples, Sin, Rapture, Crucifixion, The Passion, Deliverance, Liberty, Love, Faith,

So fix it and determine where you've erred.

The Gospel is so simple Hate sin, Love God, Flee temptations, Torment the demons

I know many would disagree with this last statement, but what is grace? Is it really what we claim it is or beyond what we can ever imagine! There is a debate, Costly or Cheap grace choose one. But I say the two salvation is both costly and cheap.

If I must state further in this growing world I found the Gospel to be very explainatory. Reckon, Denial, Flee. These three have become the greatest test and failure of many, this is where many a soul have ended their Journey. But without practising the three there seems to be no going forward! Heaven is real so Is hell.

Be wise Discern well.


But still many will fail and many will progress.
