"GOD (The Teacher)"

The bible says, 

[16] All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, [17] so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV

SOMEBODY:

Allow God to use the Scriptures in this season to teach you, to correct you, to train you....

Because there's a lot going on you just can't handle on your own, on your own it just doesn't make sense.

You don't understand for example why YOU are being blamed for something you didn't do. Where is God in that?

The answer: God is near, waiting for you to ask Him for help...NOT complain in prayer about how unfair it is, but actually ask Him for help. Remember, Matthew 7:7 NIV declares that if you ask it will be given to you.

So, Beloved, Ask.

When David's men blamed him for what happened to their sons & daughters and were talking about stoning him (physically harming him) and he was greatly distressed (1 Sam 30:6 NKJV)...

He asked the Lord what he should do.

[8] So David inquired of the Lord, saying,“Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?” And the Lord answered him, “Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all.”

1 Samuel 30:8 NKJV

NOTICE: 

The Lord didn't tell David to get back at his own men (the ones who were blaming him). It's NOT about retaliation, but it's about you pursuing, overtaking, and recovering all. 

Retaliation is the ungodliest way to gain victory...

But if you pursue - that means you put in some real effort, and if you overtake- that means God has favored you to be able to overpower the situation and last, but not least, if you recover all- that means NOT only did God grace you to get your family back, get your stuff back, get your good reputation back etc, but mentally your mind has been restored.

Because David decided to do things God's way & not just up and retaliate sense-less-ly...He no longer had to stress, he no longer had to cry, or be at odds with his own men...Let God teach you how.

Until Next Sunday.
