Celestial Challenge: Thursday - Spiritual Forces
Recognising the existence of spiritual forces that exist in the universe is very important, this is because the world is ruled by forces beyond the physical.
Where are those times when people approached religious structures or institutions with profound sense of reverence?
Where are those times where people felt very secured and protected in the houses of prayer and worship?
What is the fate of the "modern men/women" who have little or no respect for spiritual/religious power? Are we envisaging doom? What is the hope of this generation? Where do we go from here?
Religion to a very large extent has lost its value, respect and dignity due to the way spiritual forces has been commercialized, making it look like you can buy or pay for divine protection and this is the cankerworm eating deep into Christianity today.
Many have been led astray all in the name of miracles and the quest for spiritual forces, rather than the discovery of the true God. Discover God first and every other things will be added unto you (matt 6:33).
Spiritual forces are real, it can be helpful and it can also be dangerous. It is disheartening, when see different churches advertising forces. We no no longer know which is the idle. This is why my simple religion is within. There is no need for magnificent temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our minds, our hearts are our temple.
Yeap, do agree that religions is important for a person while chasing goals in his/her life!
