John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundant.
Yesterday as I prayed for a woman, the Lord showed me while praying that she did not feel like she was able to receive Him. So I asked her if she felt this way. She began to weep. She said, “He’s taken all my family from me and I got angry at Him! I have said and done some terrible things directly toward Him.”
As she cried bitter tears. I looked at her and said only what I know to be truth and I’ll say this to all that think and feel the same way about God.
According to God’s Word, this verse clearly states that it is the THIEF, it’s the devil who comes to steal, kill and destroy.
And he would love for us to place the blame on God when things go wrong. He knows if he can get us to think that God did it to us, or God didn’t help us when we were going through something, then he can get us to believe that God doesn’t care about us.
At that point, the thief can ultimately steal, kill and destroy us in addition to whatever else he might have already done to us. He can take our joy, our strength and our life. It’s called deception.
Your anger is directed at the wrong One today.
Whatever the case may be in your situation, know that God came to bring LIFE and that we can have it more abundantly! Death, destruction, and thievery come by the hand of the thief.
Today you need to take your life back. Cry out to God and talk to Him. Your terrible loss was not by God’s hand. He wants life for all of us!!
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come to You today and pray for those that have had a loss in their life. For those that have been deceived into thinking that this loss was Your doing. We lift them up and pray that as You are speaking to their hearts and showing them the truth, that they will open up and receive Your answer for them today. That they will not buck it or try to argue the point, but simply receive the truth. That today they will lay down their sorrow, grief and the empty feeling of that loss and pick up what You have for them; Your comfort, Your peace, Your joy and Your life for them. In Jesus’ name we ask this. Amen.
