She revealed on X, how she tore her prayer requests
She wrote:
"I know God is real but I struggle to understand why there is so much pain in the world, why good people die, why death has to be so excruciating, why does it seem like when you're about to enjoy life, something goes wrong? Why do kids/young people die? Why were they born sef?
Today I woke up and tore my prayer requests, cos the people that have tragedy befall them are not God's enemies. I have realized he owes us nothing. Good and bad happen to all. Just do your own bit and relax, life has already been programmed to happen how it will.
Please don't misquote my tweet, I'm not saying God doesn't change things or prayer isn't good, I tore up my prayer requests cos we are often obsessed with what we want God to do next that we do not live in the moment good/bad which could possibly be our last.
The people whose misfortune happens to also are loved by God. That also pray, they also believe too. Life will happen as it's been programmed to happen".

I can relate.
ReplyDeleteLa femme extraordinaire... tu vas bien....
DeleteGod did not promise a trouble free life, That is why I don't like Pentecostals because that is what they preach. God has the knife and yam he cuts to whom he deems fit. Be persistent in prayer and always praise him whether good or bad
DeleteMa belle ๐ รงa va aller , bonjour comment tu vas?
Delete11:45 you're correct Christianity isn't a fairytale and yeah some churches don't preach the undiluted truth they make it seem like serving God is so easy.
Pls explain this. The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous runs into it and are safe.
DeleteAlso, beloved. I wish above all things that you be in good health even as your soul prospers.
Come unto me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
Thank you so much for this response, continue to grow in Christ.
DeleteWe should all endeavour to read our Bible ,pray,serve God with all our hearts,not one leg in one leg out/sitting on the fence,have a deep relationship with God and voila!,there is our new song waiting for us to sing it,wait patiently on the Lord,I said wait.
Uwa nkaa sef. Hnmmmm
ReplyDeletePredestination?
ReplyDeleteGod said He will have mercy on whom He will have mercy. Keep praying. God is still God.
God is still merciful
ReplyDeleteJust like someone who prays against death, knowing that it can't be prayed away. Just live healthy and clean... you'd still die healthy and clean when it's time.
ReplyDeleteWell it cannot be taken away but it can be delayed
DeleteMa cherie
One faithful day I was clearing my box, I saw my prayer request, from last year no one was answers. I was so down, heartbroken .
ReplyDelete๐ค๐ค๐ค
DeleteIt is well ๐ค
DeleteGod will answer you ๐ค
DeleteGet up and dance before GOD at midnight for 3 days for testimonies better than the prayer points . Blessings comes with deliverance, congratulations
DeleteRoman 9:16
ReplyDeleteRomans
DeleteYes I can relate .
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteIt's well
I understand where she is coming from...Praise Him in the good and bad.A prayer of thanks is what we should continually give to Him who knows the end from the beginning!
ReplyDeleteIn good and bad times,God is still good.
ReplyDeleteHe didn't say we won't face troubles,in the midst of problems,He said he will be there with us,so just keep trusting him
Forever thankful ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ
ReplyDeleteWhere are all the blog pastors and motigbetional speakers? We are waiting for your input as I am confused about this myself.
ReplyDeleteNo be to dey copy and paste long letters to the Romans una go dey do for here everyday, I am waiting for your messages of hope and succour so that we can learn.
How do you explain or give hope to a child who just lost her very young dad that, her father who loved God so much and followed His commandments could be taken away from them at a young age?
What do you tell that child?
You all come here now and write your own words, not copied stuff!
Jesus Christ, the son of God did nothing but he was nailed to the cross
DeleteIn the beginning, it was not so. The disobedience of Adam corrupted mankind and changed the order and pattern that God had programmed.
DeleteThe same God in His infinite mercy and love, still sent his son to pay the price for our redemption.
In essense, the system has been "legally" corrupted, however, we can live above the system when we partner with Christ Jesus and persevere in prayers.
Jesus taught us this ; ๐๐
Luk 18:1 AKJV And he spoke a parable to them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
PRAY!
Hope this helps.
The one who loves the dad more took him
DeleteThe same Bible says they it's the soul that sinneth they would die so why are innocent children suffering for Adams culinary choices?
DeleteThe sacrifice of Jesus on the cross was to pay for the original sin of Adam so why are the same calamities happening to those who believe in God and have given their lives to him?
The claim that Jesus did nothing is laughable and shows very limited knowledge of the bible. The sacrifice of Jesus was supposed to clean the slate and pay the price so these things don't happen again.
See, there is humility in saying you don't know. It is he inability of religious people all over the world to say this that has led to so many wars and conflicts
God is real. He is a good and excellent ๐ Father!!! God doesn't cause anyone pain! But satan!!! Until satan is finally cast into the lake of ๐ฅ fire; at judgement for him and his wicked angels; then eternal life. Once you are in Christ!!! You live above the pains of this world! Your choices brings you pain!!! Not God!!! He has His perfect will for our lives and; most of all,we have overcome the systems of this world ๐ in Christ Jesus! Who has the whole universe in his hands!!! Glory hallelujah!!!
ReplyDeleteSo why the delay of casting satan to wherever? How many babies have to die before a good God will do the casting?
DeleteAll l know is God is God, both in good and bad times.
ReplyDeleteHer life, her choice
ReplyDeleteIt is well with you my darling Toke. Just keep trusting God.
ReplyDeleteNeesolah
True, but we can still keep asking with thanksgiving. In any situation His will for us is to remain thankful. With or without miracle
ReplyDeleteShe will write another one soon ๐๐๐
ReplyDeleteOnly the weak prays. They have no confidence in their abilities.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how depraved you are.
DeleteI pray the LORD would rescue your soul from eternal damnation. Amen.
These seasons, questions and philosophical exercises are important in the life of anyone who believes in God and loves humanity. God is with you, Toke. Continue to sit to reason with him.
