This is My Take on "It is God's Will" Cop Out
It happens all the time when bad things happen, probably our self-defense mechanism kicking in when it is hard to accept bad news.
It is either God's will or God's fault.
But when something good happens it is usually because of our efforts or even the influence of our prayers.
That seems mixed up to me, so I am going to tell you my take on this. I have experienced enough of good and bad, of spiritual battles and bringing my questions unabashedly to God, to be able to speak to this.
Yes, God could do whatever the heck He wanted to do, but He purposely does not in most things. Those things He has put under our free will. We can seek His help in our lives or reject it but it is our choice. And it is the free will choice of every human.
God controls when certain things happen like the birth, death, resurrection and return of Jesus. We could not make it happen any faster or slower because of our actions for good or ill. That is set in stone by God, not by us.
We can be the best people or the worst people. Most of us are between the extremes. But we will not make Jesus come faster or hold Him back.
God already sees all that has happened, is happening and will happen, as a rolled out and opened scroll. Where He decided to put the return of Jesus is already set.
Whether we remain faithful to the end, individually, or as a country, is not in God's hands. It is in ours.
The Earth will exist and people will still exist. Believers will be alive at the return of Jesus, to be changed and meet Him in the air with the Heavenly Hosts and the risen dead in Christ (all true believers that have passed).
Whether America stands or falls before then, depends on our faithfulness. Whether we are counted as part of Israel or part of the nations depend on our choices.
True Christiams are grafted into Israel, otherwise we could not be fellow heirs with Jesus, the King of Israel.
All we can do is our best to side with Jesus, personally and help our nation to side with Jesus instead of those against Him.
Even though I am very disappointed at the mid-term elections outcome, I am not surprised. Cheating has been allowed to stand. Those who hate America and want its demise have been allowed to run, instead of being run out of the country.
There should never have been anyone on any ballot who hadn't already shown themselves a person of integrity, who would sacrifice themselves for America and who loves her!
This is not God's will. This is not God's doing. This is horrible stewardship of the nation our Forefathers gave us and so many were wounded and died to protect.
It is laziness, greed and/or fear on the part of those who are supposed to be guarding our Constitutional Republic!
And it is the fault of those who call themselves Christians, but who side with the enemy or stay home and don't vote because they are having a hissy fit because things aren't going their way.
Get over it! Beg God's forgiveness! And rise up and do better! God will be a help to all of us choosing His side and asking for His help to do what is necessary.
This won't be easy, but it is no reason to surrender further to the enemy and his agenda!
Stay strong! Take responsibility for your free will actions and help repair the damage that was done because of so many others free will choices!
