For many years God’s children, also known as the children of Israel have hurt God in some shape or form. They have turned away from His Word, will and served other gods. Time after time, God remained faithful, showed His love, mercy, grace and opened His heart to those who betrayed Him. But not without a cost.

Psalm 1:1-3 1 Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law, he meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper. Have you ever wondered, Lord when is it my turn? Or, Lord, why is it that those who are not following your will are excelling at almost everything they do?
I know I have. There was a time in my walk where I was ready to call it quits. I was ready to go back to old behaviors and pleasures to ‘feel’ as if I’m doing something with my life. At that time, it seemed as if everyone around me were having fun and living, while I, on the other hand, gets called; and I quote, ‘grandma’ boring and goodie-to-shoes... Don’t laugh... If I could be honest for a moment, to me, it wasn’t fair. I couldn’t understand why as a child of God, I wasn’t excelling in certain areas of my life…….
I remember as a child, going to church with mom I was so confused as I watched her and many other members speaking in tongues, jumping, and singing all kinds of praises to the Lord. I couldn't understand why they were so excited, nor could I interpret the origin of what I heard. However, I knew it had a time, a place, and a reason. Once I grew older, the confusion intensified, for my understanding of demons and spiritual warfare broaden. Whenever I saw someone wailing in the Spirit, I would stand shocked, praying for Jesus to ‘cover me' because I didn't want ‘their' demons jumping on me…. I know, sad. It's possible, but as a child of God who is covered and armed in the Spirit, you are completely free to worship and not be concerned about the threats of someone else's deliverance.
