Some people have a bias against the Lord. Jesus is not biased against anyone!

Will the Lord cast us off forever? And will He be favorable no more? Has His mercy ceased forever? Has His promise failed forevermore? Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies? Selah Psalm 77 NKVJ
 
The psalmist is asking tough questions.
 
People ask tough questions all the time. Some seek answers. Some do it to attack a God they claim does not exist. The Word of God provides answers to our questions. We should be familiar with them.
 
If God is good, why is there so much evil in the world? God is not the source of evil. Satan is the source of evil in the world. Jesus does not commit acts of evil. People do. If we obeyed God there would be no evil in our world!
 
Why is there so much suffering in the world? The first man and woman disobeyed God. They listened to the devil. Blessing and prosperity were replaced by sin and death. Intimacy with God was severed irreparably.
 
God gave mankind dominion over the earth. Adam and Eve gave it to Satan.
 
Why does God want to control us? God does not want to control us. He wants the best for us. He created us. He knows how to protect us. He knows how to bless us.
 
The Psalmist wondered if God had gone away and left him alone. Have you ever wondered if God has gone away and left you alone? Have you ever wondered if God has turned His back on you?
 
I know God will never leave me or forsake me. There are times when my feelings and emotions contradict what I know is true. Do your feelings and emotions ever contradict what you know is true?
 
The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, They were afraid; The depths also trembled. Vs 16
 
God has not ceded authority over creation. He will end bring an end to the evil and suffering in the world. People who choose relationship with Jesus today will be blessed throughout eternity. Will you choose to live in relationship with Jesus today?
 
You led Your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. Vs 20
 
Sin and death have entered the world. The devil has been given a measure of authority over the earth. God has not abandoned us. The Lord is with us today. Jesus is leading, guiding, protecting and blessing people who love and follow Him today!
 
Discovery the answers to the difficult questions that plague your soul. Share them with people who need to Jesus is the way the truth and the life we all seek!

    ​Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
     
    Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV
     
    The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ! 
     
    This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.
     
    The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.
     
    The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him! 
     
    Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved. 
     
    God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!
                       
    Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.
     
    We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus! 
     
    Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.
     
    God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!
     
    Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!
