Our Failures and God
Every failure is bringing us closer to God. No one on earth is always successful. Many of us have tasted the bitterness of failures in our life. We have failed spiritually and materially. How to come out of those pathetic conditions.
Many don’t come to God in their failures. Some of them choose suicides. Some of them become insane. Some of them even kill those who made them fail in their ambitions and aims.
What should a believer in Lord Yeshua do when they fail?
- 2 Timothy 1:7 – Not timid, but powerful.…
- Romans 3:23-24….
- Philippians 4:6 – Replace worry with prayer, petition, & thanksgiving. …
- Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust there’s more than you can see. …
- James 1:2-4 – You are maturing. …
- Hebrews 12:1-2 – Fix your eyes on Jesus, not the trial.
The above verses teach us how to face failures in any field. We should come closer to God in failures.
Actually we become powerful and mature if we come to God during our failures. We should fix our eyes on our Lord. We should not worry but should worship and have the patientce before him. We should be in close intimacy with the Holy Spirit.
Through failure, We learn humility and understand our limitations. Failure make us more willing to depend on God and submit to His commands,
King David failed morally by committing adultery with Bathsheba and killing her husband, Uriah. He failed in some battles, but the very next step he took was to seek the help of God who forgave him and made him a successful king.
Peter failed our Lord by his denial of Christ. He realized and repented and surrendered to Jesus. He was made the pillar of the church.
“The only way that failure can get the last word in our life is if we choose to let it. We serve a God who is able to take our failure and still use us to bring glory to his name.” He is encouraging us to help build his kingdom.
When we fail, it simply confirms our humanity. We have to confess and repent. We should have faith that God has forgiven us, and then do our best.
Prayer
As soldiers of AOJ we have failed in multiplying troop churches in spite of so many gift schools and training. Let us not lose our hope and faith. Let us surrender to God and beseech him to give one more chance to rebuild the ruined church. Let us Rise and build up and Add many to the church daily. Amen. Hallelujah
