Let God Fix It .

“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.” Prov. 14:34.

A father was trying to read his magazine but his son kept complaining of being bored. Finally, dad came up with an idea. He tore a page from his magazine with a detailed picture of the world atlas on it. He then cut the page into many different shaped pieces to create a complex, homemade, jigsaw puzzle. Feeling rather excited with himself the father said, “Okay son, here’s a geography lesson for you. If you can put the puzzle together before lunch I will give you £10 as a reward.” With that the father sat back to enjoy the rest of his magazine and the young lad set about completing the complex jigsaw puzzle.

Five minutes later the proud lad presented the completed picture of the atlas to his dumbfounded father. “How on earth did you manage to do it so quickly,” his dad said in astonishment. “Oh, it was really quite easy,” said the boy. “You see, on the other side of the page with the atlas on it, there was a picture of a man. I knew that all I had to do was to work at getting the man right and then the world would fall into place and that would be right too.” The father paid his son the reward and told him there was much truth in what he had said. Indeed, if you work on getting the man right the world becomes right too. We all complain of being in a bad world and wicked system, but just like the young lad said here, to fix this world, just fix the men, they created the faulty system that has made the world a living hell.

God no doubt had a comprehensive plan for fixing man. Although many so-called Christians still work outside of God's comprehensive programme for humanity. God "fixed" the broken state of humanity caused by the fall. Sin is consistently described in the Bible as a reproach—a source of shame, disgrace, and dishonor—that drags down individuals, families, and nations according to our text. It acts as a barrier that separates humanity from God and leads to spiritual death. Through a comprehensive plan centered on Jesus Christ, God brought a permanent solution to humanity's cry. You must practically embrace this plan of salvation, walk in accordance to divine wisdom, guided by God's word on a daily basis. God has fixed man, I hope you have embraced the finished work of Christ? The choice is yours to come into perfect operation in the divine will and perfect counsel of God for your life. Selah!

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.” Matt. 6:33.

DECLARATION: 

Dear Abba Father, I thank You for the gift of life and the privilege of salvation. Father, I come before You acknowledging that nothing is impossible for You. By Your grace, I ask for a complete turnaround in every area of my life, Remove every obstacle hindering my breakthrough and open doors that have been closed against me. I decree the total release of all my inheritance and entitlements, accelerating my progress. Restore to me the years that the locusts have eaten; turn my mourning into dancing and my sorrow into joy in the mighty name of Jesus, amen.
