People nowadays distrust God. Why is that? Do they doubt Him? Did it appear that God didn't fulfil their own ideas of what they need, hence they decided to doubt Him? Did they expect God to be a butler to fulfil everything they ask? Very silly. God is King, not us, so He gets to decide how things go. If people actually bothered to get to know God, then they would truly understand Who He is and what He does. We shouldn't slam expectations on the Almighty God, but humble ourselves before Him, that He would reveal Himself to us through faith. He won't accept an arrogant person who thinks that his way is the only right way, so let us also stop being so arrogant to God, that we would get close to Him. He won't tolerate arrogance, so let's stop giving it to Him. He opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour! Amen.

Salvation awaits all who repent and turn to Jesus Christ, being baptised in His Name and following Him throughout this earthly life. Yes, this sounds so annoying, since you have heard this too many times, but did you ever think about why Him? It is because we have all sinned, and can do nothing to make up for it - no matter how many good deeds we do, no matter how many prayers we pray, no matter how many times we go to church. There is nothing we can do to earn our salvation. But Jesus did, and He lived perfectly in God's Word to achieve it. It was Him as the only One Who lived perfectly and sinlessly in God's Word, Who died without any real crime, bled completely for our sins, and rose again on the third day after His death. He lived an impossibly perfect life and Has paid the price we all owe. He is our Advocate for salvation, and whoever turns to Him receives the pardon from the judgment and a place in the Kindgom of God. Will that be you today? I pray it is, and that your name would be written in the Book of Life for the eternal life awaiting all who repent. Bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour! Amen.

Don't think this is a calvinistic promotion, for it isn't. This is not about God showing Himself only to some people, whereas He ignores the others. This is not true at all. This is more about those to whom only God can help to come to repentance. Man can do what he can, but God knows how to bring someone close to Him. We are talking the living God Who brought to us the Way to salvation through faith - YHWH - the One Who created us and wants us to be with Him. For some it will be more possible to believe without seeing, but for others, it will take more than that. As it was necessary for Saul of Tarsus, so it will be for the people like him. Whoever wants to know more, you can find the details in the Book of Acts, where his conversion is recorded. So don't provoke God to appear to you on demand, for He will not yield to such arrogance. He gives all time to repent and will arrive in His own timing. Until then, let us repent and seek His Will through His Word, for it is He Who guides us. To some He will appear Himself, and to others He will send signs to guide him forth, as if down a highway. Either way, whoever wants to meet Him will meet Him. Bless you in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour! Amen.
