God's Unfailing Love in a Confused World

Travelyukon, Wet mountain valley

In today's world, many young people find themselves questioning the goodness of God, feeling as though their frustrations stem from Him. These doubts, however, are not born out of truth but from hearts that have been subtly poisoned by the subtle and wild ideologies of people who are either themselves hurt or deceived.

If you're a young person reading this, I want you to know one thing: God never does any evil. Never ever!

Take a moment to look around you. Observe the beauty of nature—the skies, the seas, the trees. Do you see evil in those? Now, contrast that with the news—government corruption, drug lords, kidnappers, assassins, and the greedy who oppress others for selfish gain. What do you see?

From the very beginning, the devil lied to humanity, convincing us that we are better off without God. But look at the world today. Are we truly better off without Him?

Consider this classic example of human achievement. The ancient Greeks were revered as the finest of the human species in their age, discovering the cosmos and inventing democracy. They were followed by the Romans, the strongest of their time, who introduced secular leadership. Together, these civilizations birthed what many consider the pinnacle of human invention: State tyranny through institutional democracy and academic pomp leading to secularism.

But what did we gain from this? The Bible teaches us that God's original form of government was priesthood, where He was the sovereign source of authority, appointing priests to interface with humanity on His behalf. This was how God led Israel. However, Israel, desiring to be like other nations, rejected God's direct rulership.

"But it displeased Samuel when they said, Give us a king to govern us. And Samuel prayed to the Lord. And the Lord said to Samuel, Hearken to the voice of the people in all they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not be King over them."
(1 Samuel 8:6-7 AMPC)

From that moment on, things went chaotic, the world has not recovered from that human decision. Israel herself fell into slavery multiple times, heavily oppressed for generations. And yet, it is God's mercy that prevents humanity from completely destroying itself.

"It is because of the Lord's mercy and loving-kindness that we are not consumed, because His [tender] compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great and abundant is Your stability and faithfulness."
(Lamentations 3:22-23 AMPC)

The second so-called great human invention is "education." But true education begins with acknowledging God and ends with doing His will. However, human education, devoid of God, birthed the horrors of eugenics, Marxism, the gas chambers of Auschwitz, and fascism.

"This is the life-giving message we heard him share and it's still ringing in our ears. We now repeat his words to you: God is pure light. You will never find even a trace of darkness in him."
(1 John 1:5 TPT)

In today's culture, there are movies and shows painting satan as a misunderstood or even good character. An entire series called "Lucifer" subtly makes people comfortable with the idea of satan being tolerable. If you allow your mind to be invaded by such media, alongside secular music and shows like Big Brother Naija, how can you ever think right?

And the huge dragon was cast down and out—that age-old serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, he who is the seducer (deceiver) of all humanity the world over; he was forced out and down to the earth, and his angels were flung out along with him.

(Revelation 12:9 AMPC)

This is the devil's description! it deceives people to destroy their bodies, disobey authority, become atheists by giving them terribly wrong perspectives Of The Good God's Creation through movies, songs, celebrities, governments and etc.

Deep down, you know that God is good. You know He is kind. Your spirit bears witness to this. But the noise of this age—wrong movies, songs, articles, and social media influencers—tries to reprogram you.

Meditate on this:

"Lord, you're so kind and tender-hearted and so patient with people who fail you! Your love is like a flooding river overflowing its banks with kindness. You don't look at us only to find our faults, just so that you can hold a grudge against us. You may discipline us for our many sins, but never as much as we really deserve. Nor do you get even with us for what we've done."
(Psalms 103:8-10 TPT)

He cares, He Really Cares for you. See Jeremiah 29:11. He is Deeply moved by your sorrow and your sighs, see Hebrews 4:15. Always remember, God is pure light, and there is no darkness in Him. 

Give Jesus a chance to show you what you're not seeing, to lead you properly, to remove the deceptions and promptings of self-destruction from your heart, Give Him An Opportunity to Breathe afresh into you. There's Hope and there's Peace in Jesus Christ. 

"For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.

For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him."
(John 3:16-17 AMPC)
Say The Prayer Of Salvation
O Lord God, I believe with all my heart in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. I believe He died for me and God raised Him from the dead. I believe He’s alive today. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, I have eternal life, I Live in The Truth and The Peace Of God's Love for me; I’m born again. Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul! I’m now a child of God. Hallelujah!
