Bible Question:
Question: Deliverance what is the Criteria? I have been a Christian since 1973. Since 1988 I have found myself in a struggle for my life and sanity. Drugs. I am confused. The Lord does carry me through the situations I get myself into. I still read the scriptures and I still attend church. I have gone to numerous treatments. I have attempted suicide once. I am told it is up to me. And that is okay with me. Because I know on my own I will probaly never completely stop. On the Other hand I have been told that God is my deliverer. That is what I want to belive. The Lord Jesus knows my heart and how I have come to him for release and deliverance. Romans 7:15-25 is my theme song. But it hurts. Of course I am in trouble now, and I know trouble doesn't last always. HOPE I want to be free. I heard about people who God delivers instantly and completely. I just seem to get deliverance breaks, SMILE. What's the criteria for being completely delivered? I have been told I will stop when I have had enough. Does that mean when I have had enough God will deliver me? I know I have had enough since the night I tried to kill my self. And that was 10 years ago. So, what's the deal? Is it me or is it God? Who is going to stop this maddness? |
Bible Answer: You have been told that you will stop when you hit bottom, that means when you hit your bottom. Satan desires your soul (John 10:10) but God is not through with you yet, and never will. Read Isaiah 55:11, and what did the Lord say to Moses in Numbers 11:23. You already know the answer, all you need to do is apply His Word to your Life! Contact me, two is better than one. God loves you and cares about you! |
