“Those who want to get rich fall into
temptation and a trap and into many
foolish and harmful desires that
plunge people into ruin and
destruction” (1 Timothy 6:9).
The greatest thing satan aims at in
tempting good people is to overthrow
their position as children of God. One
of the satanic strategies is to get you to
doubt God’s goodness. Satan tries to
get you to forget all God has given you
and wants you to focus on what you
do not have because when you are
spending much of your time thinking
about what you do not have, you may
find yourself slipping into unhealthy
doubt.
Doubt comes when we fail to
remember what the Lord has done for
us and concentrate on what we do not
have. “Lord, give me this, give me
that…” but what about those things
God has already given you?
We are mere instruments in the hands
of God and when we see ourselves
clearly in the light of God’s Word, we
will realise that we do not deserve
anything and will therefore be grateful
for anything we receive from Him.
God knows our needs and heart’s
desires. God’s time is the best. Be
patient and let God answer your
questions on His schedule not yours.
