I AM GRIEVED


I AM GRIEVED
To be grieved means to feel very sad. It means to mourn and to sorrow.
 Genesis 6 vs. 5-6: And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth and it grieved Him at His heart.
The “I AM ”  is GOD. He is the I AM that I AM. He becomes grieved when men fill their hearts with imaginations, thoughts that are evil. He becomes grieved when men do wicked things. The wicked are GOD’s enemy, so He grieves at them. You are part of the wicked if you grief GOD by your work of unrighteousness. All sinners are wicked.
Psalm 7 vs. 11: GOD judges the righteous, and GOD is angry with the wicked every day. Psalm 9 vs. 17: The wicked shall be turned into hell and all the nations that forget GOD. Psalm 7 vs. 9:  Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just; for the righteous GOD trieth the hearts and reins.
He becomes grieved when you put other things first than HIM. His anger was kindled against the Israelites and He sold them into the hands of the Philistine and into the hands of the children of Ammon when the Israelites choose serving baalim, ashtaroth and other gods.
Hebrews 10 vs. 31: It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living GOD.
The Israelites grieved Him, fell into his hands and they were vexed and oppressed by their enemies.
           He becomes grieved when you spare the Amalekites. The Amalekites in context represents things of the world you highly value than GOD. They can be classified simply into three lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and pride of life. It might be fashion, might be properties, might be your job and business, and might be your ungodly relationship. Saul was instructed to totally destroy the Amalekites and everything that belong to them, but he spared Agag and the best of the sheep’s and cattle, the calves and lambs, everything that was good. He grieved GOD by not carrying out his instruction. To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. We have to come back to GOD, though He has mercy on whom He has mercy on; and compassion on whom He has compassion upon, and ask for His mercy and compassion. We have to cast down imagination and every high thing that exalt itself against GOD’s knowledge in our lives and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of CHRIST. Please if this piece has blessed you, kindly share with others. It is well with us.

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED.

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED To be faithful is to be reliable, worthy of trust and consistent with reality. A faithful man pledges and might later be unfaithful. For instance, couples make vows at the altar during their wedding, but these vows don’t stop the man or woman from breaking promises and vow. A married man finds himself cheating outside marriage despite all vows made during his wedding, because he is not faithful. You find cheating outside marriage is a common thing now, which shouldn’t be. Husbands drink from your own well, stick to her and figure out things by praying together. Wives drink from your own well, stick to him no matter what he has done. A man is not the faithful who had promised, because men fails and break their promise. Only GOD is the faithful who had promised. The bible said cursed be he that put his trust in the arm of flesh. The arm of flesh will surely fail. You been promised something by your uncle or aunt doesn’t guarantee you will be given the th...
