God Thinking XXX - The Trouble With Tragedy 1

"Everyone goes through some form of tragedy or crises.  There are those you know are coming and those that blindside you. If you need closure on a tragedy or crises then you need wisdom about how God operates concerning evil.  You need closure; not to forget the tragedy, not to forget the pain and suffering of others.

You need closure on the untruths, that satan circulates:

when innocent blood is shed

when evil shows its ugly head

when the enemies of God strike against the lovers of God

when the wicked men under satan’s rule, do things that defy description

There is so much false, foolish and unsupported rhetoric that is circulated when things like the horror of 911 take place or tragedy at home or in the workplace.

For your faith to grow and reach beyond your circumstances, you need answers.  Not just answers to what happened, but you need answers to meet the struggles and challenges that lie ahead.

Here’s a few false statements; seeds planted by satan every time wicked seems to prevail.

Let’s meet them head on and build within us, faith based upon truth, to stand against the wiles of the wicked:

One of the things that satan says every time someone dies or is abused or hurt or maimed, is: Where is your God now?

  

Every time satan can plant a seed of doubt, he’s going to do it, and when death or tragedy comes, without reason, out of due time, there is a place for the doubt seed to grow.

If that happened to you, you need to say, “stop”.  God says in Psalm 116:15 “Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.”

Jesus says in Matthew 28:20b, “I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.”

If you believed the scripture when things were going well, you need to believe the scripture now also."
