It's easier to say you don't believe God when you've not had a personal revelation of whom He is that will bring about that personal encounter with Him...
Good morning, good afternoon and good evening to my distinguished readers in respect to your various time zones...(Who writes an article and doesn't hope that the world reads it?!) Okay, I really need to stay focused now.
Here it goes!!!
I've been in that state of dilemma where I asked myself, "Is there really a God?", " Is there really a supernatural being watching over us and overseeing all our deeds here on earth?".
This questions started coming when I started becoming depressed and needed to find rest for my soul, when I was in dire need of truth and when I really needed to know my purpose on this earth because as at that time, I was off to see Gulliver...
I was able to find my bearing, not to the location of Gulliver (no no), but to the point where my eyes were opened to the Living Word and to the brightest of lights...
Now keep following; whatever you're going to read from now on will be like the last point where all doubts are going to be erased from your heart and mind and it's also going to be like the final research you'll make because it'll either prove you right that there's is no God (are you really kidding me?) or prove you wrong that there's an Almighty God; He is alive, He is with us and He wants you to come to the saving knowledge of Him.
"In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God"; In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless without void and darkness covered the face of the deep while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters. Then God said, let there be light; and there was light."
Just in case you are wondering where I got these words from, it's from a book, popularly known as the Bible, and the Bible in which these words are contained, is the most accessible book on the face of the earth. Sadly, even the cat that curiosity killed was not curious enough to delve into it before its demise. (Hypothetically speaking, the so-called book worms, scholars, scientists, basically all those who don't believe in this God and those who believe, but have failed to truly seek Him, have somehow found a way to keep this book aside, neglecting the fact that there might be an iota of truth in the mysteries embedded in the DNA of this universe.)
These words are very catchy (I must say, reading it gave me goose pimples) and full of mysteries but are yet to reach the ends of the earth but already, a very large number of people in the world today have come across these same words in one way or the other.
This is where the line that distinguishes the man that sees, from the blind man, is drawn (Basically, you can still have your sight and still be blind).
The 5naira question is, how far have you gone to discover the truth behind such powerful and supernatural deeds by the Almighty God, through which we came into existence? I used 5naira because, I'm a Nigerian, the 5naira note is now worthless and this whole post will still be as worthless as the 5naira note to some of the millions of people that will read it (yes, i said millions of people will read this post).
So, back to how I almost got lost in search of Gulliver but later found my bearing with the help of the loud voice in my head that said to me, "Really?!, You mean you read and you're in search of the truth but you're going to ignore this book (The Bible)?; You mean you're not going to search deeper to actually come to the conclusion that you've tried everything and even read the Bible, but you can't still come up with a valid explanation of how the universe is overruled by a Supreme God that wants his creations to worship andi believe in Him?"
From the very moment I succumbed to that voice and curiously accepted to read the Bible like the way I read Gulliver's travels, in order to understand and think like that famous author, Jonathan Swift, that was the moment I had the encounter that changed my life for the best.
The same way you hear voices when you read every other book is the same way you hear voices when you read the Bible. The difference here is, the voices you hear while reading the Bible are louder and they seem more alive. (Mind blowing right?)
Dear so-called book worms, scholars, scientists, basically all those who don't believe in this God and those who believe, but have failed to truly seek Him, I dare you to carefully and in all seriousness, peruse the 66 books compiled in this one book just for the purpose of being enlightened about the "fairy tale" of the so-called Most High God like believers refer Him as and see if you won't have a change of heart and change of view towards the Alpha and the Omega as I call Him. I dare you all to open up to the truth in His Living Word and see if you won't be overwhelmed and overtaken by the Peace, Joy and the drive to fulfill purpose here on earth that comes with the same Word. I dared you because I've partaken in the light, knowledge and truth of this Word.
For those of you that hate over religious folks, did I actually sound religious?
I really don't think so.
This is way Beyond Religion!
This is just a constructive outreach that is meant to remind people that there's somewhere you might have not searched for those answers you need, because sincerely, we all have unanswered questions; Who doesn't?
Some people still wonder where aliens come from, while others still ask if there's any such thing as "true love", so why not keep searching for those answers that are directly under your nose?
It will shock you to know that there's no circumstance you are passing through or have passed through in this life that isn't recorded in this book with solutions to them all.
That's where the turning point lies.
To my distinguished readers across the world, Thanks a lot and I appreciate you.
I do this for you all.
Goodbye for now and see you again, soonest. 😉👍
