Psalm 24:1 The earth is the LORD’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it.
Looking at the things happening around this world, failed relationships, broken homes, broken Churches, purposeless life, etc. God taught me something which is so important as a believer, understanding the depth of this can change everything. So I am going to share this precious thing.
When you feel that, you owned it, the truth is you believed it is yours and you want to control it and are possessive about it. Moreover demands respect from it because you paid the price. But, everything changed when you know and realize that it is from God, and it is His. Then, you didn’t demand respect, but, you yourself automatically give respect. Because you know the owner and it is His precious gift to you, to protect it and take care of it. Not only that to respect it as well.
My dear, take a moment and look at it, nothing in this world is yours. Your mother, father, wife, husband, son, daughter, boyfriend, girlfriend, church, properties, land, and all natures. Remember it is His alone, all require respect because it is His. As the word of God clearly says ‘The earth is the LORD’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it.
“You want to control it when you think it is yours, but you respect it when you know and understand it is His.”- Nei
