TOPIC: MY STRUGGLE HAS ENDED CONCLUSION




TEXT: 2 SAM 9:1-13
TOPIC: MY STRUGGLE HAS ENDED CONCLUSION

Why Christian struggle cont’d

Ø  Not in the place God intends : when one is occupying a place outside of God ordained programme for our life struggle is a sure event, Isaac’s world famous fruitfulness easily quoted by all in Gen 26:12 which says then Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year  an hundredfold and the Lord blessed him was made possible as a result of the direction received and followed earlier in the same chapter  Gen 26:2 And the Lord appeared unto him and said go not down into Egypt dwell in the land which I will tell thee of. God created us, knows and sees all things just like He created fish and placed them in water any other environment will make fish suffer and eventually die. Same applies to us May we be teachable for God in Jesus name. 
Ø  Lack of depth/spiritual insight/eyes: being human with limitations and thresholds, at times we allow our situation, experiences, expectations among other parameter becloud our senses, at other times our limitations as human may make us not see what is supposed to aid our success or some things that are needed for us to soar are just beyond us. It took the intervention of God for Hagar’s son not to have died of thirst when there is water around the spot where the son would have died. Gen 21:19 says And God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water and she went and filled the bottle with water and gave the lad drink.

My struggle has ended how?

v  Struggles /sufferings are but for a moment: 1 Pet 1:6, 1 Cor 4:17 says our light affliction/heaviness through manifold temptations is only permitted for a season. (Paraphrased).when a child of God goes through any issue it is just for a moment and that moment is expired now in Jesus name. Amen.
v  Because God answers prayers: God always has good thoughts towards his people (Jer 29:11) even when going through a struggle or suffering, Isaiah 43:2 says when thou passest through the waters I will be with thee and through the rivers they shall not overflow thee when thou walkest through the fire thou shall not be burned neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.  Most time he waits for us to cooperate with His thought and eternal plan in the place of prayer to bring to reality His glorious and lofty plans. Jer 29:12 says then ye shall call upon me and ye shall go and pray unto me and I will hearken unto you.
v  He bore our sufferings: Prophet Isaiah saw the vision clearly Jesus bore all our maladies Isaiah 53:4 which says surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows yet we did esteem him stricken smitten of God and afflicted. He bore all our curses hence Gal 3; 13, we are to experience bliss the better part of our lives as Christ has fully paid the price.
v  Because God says so: God your and my maker sent me to tell you that your suffering /struggle is over in Jesus mighty name Amen .This is however in consonance with His word Is 3:10 which says say to the righteous that it shall be well with him for he shall eat the fruit of their doings. The God who created the heaven and the earth sent me to tell you and myself that our struggle is over in Jesus mighty name.


SHALOM.
