STILL DOUBTING THERE'S A GOD? PART 2 - NATURE!!!

Still doubting God's existence despite the fact that you have heard so much about Him? Let's take a little look at nature:

According to research, as at 2010, there are over 1,367,000 species of animals existing in the world and over 321,000 species of plants, of which the research still continues. One definitely does not need a guru to tell him/her that a Supreme is the only One who could have done this sort of thing and it's so totally amazing!

Ever wondered how plants eat? Trust me, I'm still wondering till today. Then let's look at what forms life - the cells; scientists say that: "Cells are extremely complex – so complex that our understanding of their structure and function is very much incomplete. It is interesting to consider that, even with the most advanced technologies of today; engineers are not yet able to design a machine that can mimic or replace a cell. The difficulty lies in the seemingly impossible design requirements. For example, such a machine would need to perform the functions of a specialized cell (e.g. secretion, contraction, electrical conduction etc.), be packaged into the small size of a cell, repair and replicate itself, and communicate with and respond to its environment". Only God could have created the cell.

Now it's common knowledge in science that the atom is the smallest particle in the world, and then sometime ago, scientists claimed to have found the substance from which the atom generated. But then we should ask them the very simple question, where did that very little substance come from? God of course.

Like I said at the beginning of this posts, just a 'little' dive into nature, if you go deeper, you'd be so awed you'd have no words to describe your state of emotions. 

God is so real and you really should get to know Him personally, you'd find Him to be really cool, plus you'd get access to a part of His infinite Wisdom. Doubt me? if you can, ask John Maxwell, or any other of those major scientists, they'd tell you God was their secret.

Peace!!!

STILL DOUBTING THERE'S A GOD? PART1-YOU!!!

Ever thought about the intricacies involved in the creation of man? Let me get you into it a little...

For one, every single human-being, even twins, have different Finger-prints. It takes an extremely creative Person to do that for over 1 billion people, both dead and living. Two, every DNA is different, trust me, and only an extremely creative Person can do that for over 1 billion people. Three, I still do marvel till today, how God happened to create man with a variety of 'materials' (permit me to say); bones, skin, nails, internal organs, really! both hard and soft materials into 1 creation! Simply Awesome!!! Four, how did God happen to create so many different shades and colors of one kind of being - humans? what a Great Artist! In Nigeria alone we have 371 tribes with different dialects of three major languages! Now, take a detailed look at just your hands, see the different lines there? it's different on each of your palm and that goes for every human, wow!!! Then He still loved this man sooooo much that He made that same creation in His very own image; to breathe, think and create too!, now that's incredible!

Now do you wanna tell me man came from Apes?, then why do humans give birth? the Apes are supposed to keep evolving to make more humans... lol.

Sit and think more, then you'd know how really awesome this Great God is... Yes! Yes! The Almighty God does exist!!! Don't just stop at knowing about Him, get to know Him, because He wants to know you too and how you are making use of the freedom He has given; the freedom of choice!

FRIENDSHIP WITH THE FATHER

                   

If we look back in Bible times to the Book of Genesis, we would see that indeed, God's original idea creating man was to have a Friendship relationship with him, and that was why unlike we humans, He made His own creation - us, in His Image and Likeness. We would also see that God walked and talked with Adam and Eve in the Garden, otherwise Adam wouldn't have recognized God's voice (Gen 3:8).

A good example of Friendship between God and man is the relationship between God and Abraham. When God told Abram that he would be the father of many nations, he trusted Him (Gen 17), when God asked Abram for his son, he gave him wholeheartedly (Gen 22), when Abimelech took Abraham's wife, God confronted Abimelech personally (Gen 20:3), when God wanted to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, He chatted with Abraham first (Gen 18).

I believe God wants to have this kind of relationship with everyone. We need to move on from a 'Stranger relationship' to a 'Father-child relationship' and then to a 'Friendship relationship'. God has been reaching out to us individually and He's still doing so today, are you going to respond to His call?

Any friendship requires a lot of sacrifice, God has made the first move by giving His only Son - Jesus, to us. Friendship also requires trust, can you trust God totally? do you trust Him, do you believe His promises? can He trust you? Friendship requires giving and sharing, have you given God your life? your will? Any good friendship is built on communication, how often do you talk with God, in praying, in reading the Word? how much time do you give to Him out of the 24hrs of your day?

Just like with King David in the Bible, who had many mighty men who fought with him for the kingdom, but had the three mighty men who were called the first three (Adino, Eleazar and Shammah) who were willing to give their lives for him (2Sam 23), we should not be satisfied to just be numbered among the 'Christians' who focus more on just the Kingdom, but aim for a higher level, to be numbered with those who are first and foremost, after The King, before the Kingdom. Chase The King and not just the Kingdom and/or Its benefits.

First and foremost, give your life to Him and get into a relationship with The Holy Spirit, for it is He who would help you to develop and cultivate a healthy Friendship relationship with your Heavenly Father (2Cor 3:18). The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Love of God, and the communion of The Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen (2Cor 13:14).

This is food for thought, for everyone of us, including myself..... Peace!
