IS GOD STILL AROUND? The BIG question people ask
We sometimes feel broken when we don't see God on the scene of afflictions and troubles. Have you ever wondered where God could have been to have allowed such trouble to visit you?
The quickest question that comes to our minds when we go through trouble is ‘‘Where is God when am going through all this?
Gideon said to Him, “O my Lord, if the Lord is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us about, saying, ‘Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the Lord has forsaken us and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.” Judges 6:13 NKJV
Gideon, a mighty man of valor taught the Lord had left his people because of the troubles they found themselves in when the Midianites ruled over them. The Lord left the Israelites but didn't leave Gideon.
The angel of God has said to him... “The Lord is with you, you mighty man of valor!” Judges 6:12. NKJV
Our thoughts are not the thoughts of God and neither our ways His ways. You may be wrong to think that the Lord has left you when He may be closer than you think.
Everybody had thought because of the hardships that the children of Israel faced under the oppression of the Midianites, God was no longer with them and Gideon had the same thought.
May you never have negative thought about God. God knows His own and will always save His own no matter the situation.
God is more closer to you than you think
