If you would earnestly seek God and make your supplication to the Almighty. Job 8.5

The worst moment in a person’s life is when they give up the way of God and walk in the ways of perdition, falling into temptation. By doing so, this person is opened to the devil’s operation and suffers a lot. In the verse above, there are two important secrets that the Lord teaches us so that we may get rid of Satan’s attacks and return to communion with Him. In the following message, we will see two other principles.

The best thing that can happen to you is to belong to the Body of Christ. From the moment you hear the Word of God, you become alive in the divine atmosphere. However, when you listen to the devil and fall into temptation, you start walking on the opposite direction. Then, even though you may try, you will not be able to live in peace, and worse: you will be unhappy forever.

The parable of the prodigal son shows the difference between the Kingdom of God and being sunk in sin. This happens with those who abandon the Father’s house. While he had money, he did not lack any friends. He was delighting himself in his immoral life. But when his money was gone, his “friends” found new friends, and he saw where his mistake had led him to.

The rebellious son could no longer supply for his own needs, and was eating the food that he gave to the pigs. When he realized, he remembered his father’s house, from where he should have never left. He decided to go back and seek for his father, in order to confess his sin. When the father saw him coming, he ran, embraced him, and accepted him again.

If you want to return to the house of God, do the same! Even if you may have gone too far, the Father will see you in the horizon, will run towards you and embrace you. Then, he will order that your clothes might be changed, that you might be given new shoes and a ring in your finger. The prodigal son confessed his mistake and was accepted. If you do so, you will certainly be as well. The Creator does not want to see you lost in suffering.

In Job 8:5, the Lord said that those who seek for Him earnestly – in advancement – will find Him. Start seeking Him before the heat of the day convinces you to say to yourself that there is no other way, for God will surely straighten your life. He invites you to encounter with Him and see that He is everything you need to be happy.

The secret is to ask mercy for the Most High, who renews His stock of compassion every morning. Even if yesterday you spent all the divine action that heals, delivers, and restores, today the Father’s goodness is renewed. Surrender yourself to Christ and be set free from temptations and all perversion.

In Christ, with love,
