Luke 18:7 ,7 "And shall not God avenge his own elect, who cry day and night unto him, though he bears long with them?",8 "I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man comes, shall he find faith on the earth?"

God will certainly act on any issue we present to Him and though it may seem to take long for Him to start addressing it it will be completely addressed with the greatest speed. Other ways might seem to take a faster time to start addressing the issue but will not be fast enough to completely address the issue

"If my intentions are good, it matters not, the means I use"

📖 Related Verses (4)

John 14:6 "Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me."

Christ must be the intent(life) as well as the means(way) of every accomplishment. My intentions as well as my ways must agree with the nature of Christ

admin 👍 0

It is an insult and a betrayal of Christ and His principle to try to fulfill a good intention with wrong means because Christ who is goodness personified is established as the intention of all things and the goodness of the intentions are seen in the goodness of the means of accomplishing them. This means that intentions are as good as the means they are accomplished and the means are as good as their intentions. A wrong means coupled with the right intention is therefore a betrayal of this principle because a wrong means makes a right intention wrong and a wrong intention in turn bears a false testimony that Christ is 'wrong'. A wrong means is therefore a betrayal of the goodness and holiness of Christ notwithstanding the rightness of intentions.

Galatians 6:7 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap."

what we sow is what we sacrifice and what we sacrifice is what we harvest in the end. What we harvest in the end is always greater than what we sowed in the beginning. When we sacrifice our feelings to walk in the spirit we will in the end end up harvesting greater and more pleasurable feelings motivating us to do it. Our feelings depend on our walk in the spirit Pro 18:14 KJV . The way to feel like doing something good is to walk by the spirit or by faith notwithstanding how you feel 2Co 4:13.
