Apologetics
Who is a good and loving parent who will not be happy seeing his children walking in the right way according to his instructions?
God as our Father also wants all His children to walk according to His instructions whether in written form or expressly in words. Doing so will gladden His heart and He will be pleased with them. He will not fail to give them the good desires of their hearts at the right time and in the right place.
Do you know that a permissive will of God does not come from His heart? Sometimes, the Lord gives His children certain things that they request to please themselves. He knows what He will do afterwards. Many times, children of God are agitating for what God has in store and heart to give His people but they want it earlier than the ripe time. This is dangerous.
The children of Israel did the same thing and they were the losers on the long run. The Scriptures reveal, "In my anger I gave you kings,
and in my fury, I took them away." Hosea 13:11. New Living Translation, NLT
A permissive will of God emanates from His anger and in wrath can destroy it. He did it before and can do it again.
It is better to seek the heart of God to know what His instructions are and act accordingly. This will be of great benefit in all ramifications.
It was Abraham's simple obedience to follow all the Lord's commandments that made him the father of faith. He usually made his request known to God but he quickly Submitted to His will.
Beloved Pilgrim, on your pilgrimage on the Earth, follow the Lord intimately and obey His instructions. You will then reap His all-round blessings. May the Lord help you to walk according to His will in Jesus' mighty name. Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
Scripture references: Hosea 13:11; 1 Samuel 16; Deuteronomy 28; 1 Samuel 8.
