THE GOD-GIVEN TURNAROUND
There is no risk
in taking risks when Jesus is in your life.
As I said
earlier, my faith in Jesus ensures there are no risks in the decisions I make,
and upon entrusting Him with our lives, they then become predetermined, predetermined
for success. Until then we were lost, presuming to be in control of our own
lives and making a complete mess of them. But now things are more promising,
because we have given the most able man in the universe permission to make a
few changes, to decide what is best for us.
When God turned my life around, I was awestruck that even He
was able to rearrange each turn of events which led me to that point in time. How?
Was the only question on my mind. It went beyond all intelligence. Upon
reflection of my past experiences, I realised some misfortunes were necessary
for me to arrive at that fortunate point in time. It is in this moment that we witness
the magnificent architect at work; we have received the intercession of the
spirit. What a privilege that He does this especially for each and every
individual. This is how loving Our Father is.
I was into all kinds of mysteries including UFOs and
extraterrestrial life, but I can remember clearly when my eyes were opened
something like this:
Aliens? No. This goes way beyond that. Not even the most
advanced species in all the universe could pull this off, and why would they?
This is something specific for me and it had been done out of compassion,
compassion that cannot be matched, one I am not worthy of considering my past,
compassion unlike anything of this world. This is divine.
This was my revelation. I do not doubt the existence of
extraterrestrial life, but I knew right then that the scriptures were right: we
are not the product of extraterrestrial experimentation to create a slave race
of gold miners of whom the “Anunaki” can exploit. Oh no, we are much more than
that; we are God’s greatest creation.
We are loved. So much so, that everything is miraculously
turned in our favour once we have a change of heart; once we make sacrifices of
our own and do something for Him, He will return the favour and redesign the
entire world based around us. As I said, this goes way beyond aliens. Man knows
his creator once he sees this happen, and he will never doubt His existence
again. The truth is, God is looking out for us like this every day, people just
fail to see it; they do not see the signs and the experience is not as intense
as when they become a true believer.
God has put in place, with the help of Satan (his puppet),
many distractions and adversities to test us and our faith. When we are trapped
inside this matrix of deception, there are always faint opportunities to pull
ourselves out yet we procrastinate, doubting their existence due to the
extremely unlikely odds of their purpose targeting us specifically. How am I
that important?, is the doubt preventing us from seizing those
opportunities and we lose faith. But there is a world that revolves around each
and every individual because God has made it that way, with our ultimate success
in mind.
God cares for us so much that He will manipulate our realities
to focus on our well-being; He will bring down those walls; He will move that
mountain; He will part the seas to rescue His faithful followers from their
pursuing enemies; He will change the course of history if it meant that one
person would do something worthwhile; He will jumpstart their life—literally;
He will say, “Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley
of Ajalon, because My people are a chosen people, and I will give them My sword
and deliver them all from death.” He will change the physics of the entire universe
to suit a single man . . . if he finds God.
Let this thought remove all doubt behind those strange
occurrences that seemed impossibly self-oriented. They were. It is God. And this
is how He works in our lives. And this was the truth I discovered upon
witnessing the great architect at work. And science does not explain the
compassion that was involved when my reality was changed and God gave me a
helping hand.
