KNOW WHAT IS YOUR BUSINESS AND KNOW WHAT IS GOD'S BUSINESS

One day I wanted to cry because of the hardships that were surrounding me on every side of my life. I checked on my plans - they weren't showing any sign of success. I checked on my abilities - only to find that I was so weak to accomplish any of those plans. I checked on my friends - and everyone of them was looking at me to help on his case. I looked at church - just to realise that those I wished could pray for me were waiting for my prayers on their problems. I WANTED TO CRY - not because of my problems but because NO BODY WAS THERE FOR ME.

The pain in my heart, the sorrow covering my souls and the burning in my check I cannot tell how it was. TEARS STARTED dropping from my eyes.

SUDDENLY, a voice came in spirit - I heard it clearly saying: "WHY DO YOU CRY?" I replied with a bitter tone: DON'T YOU SEE WHAT I'M GOING THROUGH?

Then my heart was taken to the Bible through 1 Peter 5:7 "Casting all your care on him; for he cares for you."

 Only then was my pain relieved and my sorrow taken away when I realised that it wasn't my business to solve my problem. It was neither my friends' nor my church members'.... Oooh IT IS GOD'S BUSINESS.

IMMEDIATELY, my CRY STOPPED. I realised I was troubling myself for something that wasn't my business to handle. Hear what the New Simplified Bible says about it: "Throw all your anxiety upon him, because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7).

I decided to THROW my anxieties to JESUS. Since then I have taught my soul not to trouble me for things that AREN'T MY BUSINESS. What I do is GO TO PRAYER and THROW them to JESUS because that is HIS BUSINESS.

I want to encourage you, whatever thing you are going through now, ASK YOURSELF: IS THIS MY BUSINESS? If the answer is NO! go and throw it to the one concerned with it - HIS NAME IS JESUS. Don't destroy yourself for worrying too much of things which are beyond your abilities - if they are beyond what you can do that means THAT'S NOT YOUR BUSINESS. THROW IT TO JESUS, THAT'S HIS BUSINESS.

REMEMBER what God told Moses when people were crying after they saw the see ahead while Pharaoh was pursuing them from behind. This is what God said:"The LORD shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace" (Exodus 14:14).

HOLD ON my dear, JEHOVAH is at work. He is leveling the path for you. Just hold your peace. It's God's business to take you to Canaan, just hold on - HOLD YOUR PEACE WHILE THROWING ALL YOUR CARE UNTO HIM.

BE BLESSED, remember to share this to as many people as you can.
