THE ABILITY OF GOD !

THE ABILITY OF GOD ! The Lord spoke several years ago, saying, "Forget your preconceived ideas and study My Word as though you had never heard it before." When I begin to do that, I learned some thing, and then I had to unlearn some other things. So much of my religious thinking was contrary to the Word of God. Someone has aptly stated, "you have been on the same road for 20 years and haven't arrived at your destination, you should know you are on the wrong road. Many people think that they are on the right road; religiously, But Jesus said, "Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it. But the gate is narrow (constricted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it." (Matthew 7:13-14). I traveled the road of religious praying for more than 20 years and seldom ever saw any results. I was confused, it sounded good, and disillusioned, sicking my body, and supernaturally in debt. I was hanging on to the last night at the end of my rope. I had prayed, pleaded, begged, and complained, but the answers had not come. I had a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. I was on the wrong road religiously when I was told some seminary denominational contrary doctrines of what they say is the Word of God. When I found the truth (The Word of God), the knowledge of that truth set me free. The reason for this lesson is found in (2 Timothy 2:24-26): "And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God pre-adventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will." I recovered myself out of the snare of the devil by acting on God's Word, and you can do the same. These next series of lessons are dedicated to your freedom in Christ Jesus.
