THEME: Is God Asleep?
BY: Mch. Karubanda.
TEXT: Psalms 44:23
Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever. (Psalms 44:23|KJV/Ps/44_23/KJV)
- You can ask yourself this question any time when you sit down and evaluate and see the reality of today's daily life. One, Most of us live a careless life. We do issues without consideration. And two, We may be passing through a situation or a circumstance, that you wonder if God is there or not, and if He is there, Doesn't He see!
- When we take the view of the evils been done by one person to another, when we see the devorce, mudders, brutality, hate, skimming, plotting evil, and whatsoever more you can think of.
- Or, you are in a situation like David in Psalms 44, When he sees around him and realizes, His life is not what he knows it should be. He looks evil doers prosper and his enemies gain through his wealth and strength, and he remains frustrated and forsaken, so he asks God, Are you asleep? Awake Then and see!
- Is it at your work place, or at home. Is it happening to your neighbor,or to your relative. Is it in your family, is it your spouse or siblings,... Whatsoever it Is,...
YET GOD DOES NOT SLUMBER!!!
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. (Psalms 121:3-4|KJV/Ps/121_3-4/KJV)
- In Jeremiah God tells us to call Him.
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (Jeremiah 33:3|KJV/Jer/33_3/KJV)
* David wondered, He has God, The King, The Maker, The Author and The Finisher of our faith, The Lord of Lords, The Provider, and whatsoever you can praise Him, and yet David was passing through a hard time.
David said NO! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! And he called God!
- In any thing you undergo, CALL GOD. HE ISN'T ASLEEP.
Stay Blessed
