TOPIC: Be Content (2)
MEMORISE:
“And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” – (Luke 12:15)
READ: Psalm 37:1-9 (KJV)
MESSAGE: When you complain about what God has not given you, you are being ungrateful to Him for what He has done. Think about it: If He has given you money to rent a one-room apartment, thank Him for that one room and He will give you more. The more you complain and grumble, the further God draws away from you because He detests the company of complainers. When the Israelites complained about a lack of meat despite God’s provision of manna, Numbers 11:1 says:
And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp.
Imagine giving your child a phone and instead of appreciating your gift, he or she complains about it not being internet-enabled then smashes it into pieces. You would certainly be angry. Now, imagine if the child appreciated the phone, then came after a few weeks to say “Daddy/Mummy, I like this phone, but if you don’t mind, I would prefer one that can use the internet”. You would most likely assure the child that you will buy it for him or her soon and then strive to fulfil your promise. Many Christians are short-changing themselves by always complaining. If you appreciate what God has given to you, He will give you more, but if you grumble, then you will get Him angry.
Trust God, He wants the best for you and He will give it to you when the time is right.
Things may not be the way you want now, but trust God and appreciate what He has given to you.
(1 Timothy 6:6) says:
But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Ambition is good but even as you strive for greater heights, learn to be content with where you are and what you have.
He is bringing you to that desired place very soon in Jesus’ name. God bless you.
PRAYER POINT:
Father, help me to trust in Your love and to appreciate all that You have done for me.
