Bible Question:
Why God allow satan to test human? Human got many feeling that come from satan to let us feel discouraged, down, sad, shallow..... i hate this kind of feeling, why don't God just give us a happy life? |
Bible Answer: Greetings lialia, God allows us to go through the wildernesses we go through to help us grow and mature. We need to continue to grow in our walk with the Lord so that we will learn what we need to know to do His work. God gives us the choice of how we want to deal with these wildernesses. It is very easy to take your focus off God and focus on self and the circumstances we are in. It takes strength to keep our eyes on Christ. When we become depressed and discouraged we are allowing Satan to have control over our emotions. God does not want this to happen. He wants us to keep our eyes on Him and allow Him to deal with the negative circumstances. Matt 7:9-11 asks us what father when his son asks for bread will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish will give him a serpent? How much more will your father in heaven give things to those who ask him? God wants His children to be happy, the above verses tell us this. Be strong and keep your eyes focused on Jesus. Do not allow Satan to gain control of any aspect of your life. Some thing to think about: If God did not give us hard times we would not know how to appreciate the good times. prayon |
