God says, we have refused to listen to Him and opted for other things of our own interests what we think we need at that moment but what we are looking for we will not get satisfied or content*
God is telling us that He knows our needs but we're still busy, why? Because we claim to be busy.
God has cursed this statement that I'm busy let me finish what I'm doing I will get back to Him later. He says you have opted for that thing than Me okay you go but you are not going to get satisfied
Examples
- Let me finish what I'm doing, I shall pray later. Let me finish my work, I shall do what God wants me to do later.
- When it comes to work for money, when we wake up late, we hurry to get out of bed so fast to hurry to go to the office without even praying because we are late for work, what you don't know and see are the fiery dirts of the enemy.
- Let me first utilize this food since it's little, I will help in the next season or instead of helping those in need, we claim that we also have problems and we fail to help those in need and it continues to grow.
- Let me first get money in wrong ways, I shall confess to God later, you don't come back, you go for good, these are some of the excuses Satan uses against us,etc
When you start doing things upon your interests but against God's will, He will live you to do what you want untill you start getting problems or die in sin
You start getting off guard slowly slowly and you don't come back.
People pretend to love God but their hearts are somewhere else.
What's the cause of this?
People have not trusted God, they lean in their own understanding, they don't consult God on things.
Then now after knocking a stone, we come back to Him crying.
God needs us to have faith in Him.
Let's not lean in our own understanding but rather lean on God's wisdom.
