"HISTORY MERELY REPEATS ITSELF. It has all been done before. NOTHING UNDER THE SUN IS TRULY NEW."
Ecclesiastes 1:9 (NLT)
• What makes life meaningful?
- Your relationship with God makes life meaningful. Having abundant of wealth or blessings might not be outright bad, only If the things are gotten or acquire whilst your relationship and fellowshipping with God are intact and sound.
- Living comfortably is not against God's Will, but having wealth without giving a place to God in your heart is meaningless—vanity:
15 THEN HE [Jesus] SAID, “Beware! GUARD AGAINST EVERY KIND OF GREED. LIFE IS NOT MEASURED BY HOW MUCH YOU OWN.” 20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! You will die this very night. THEN WHO WILL GET EVERYTHING YOU WORKED FOR?’ 21 “YES, A PERSON IS A FOOL TO STORE UP EARTHLY WEALTH BUT NOT HAVE A RICH RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD” (Luke 12:15,20,21 NLT).
READ: Luke 12:15-21 - Solomon could not find fulfilment in all he acquired, his achievements, because he turned away from God Who made him—the source of his success and greatness (1 Kings 11:9-11).
- When you did not permit God in your life, or you turned away from Him, your life becomes empty—meaningless (Deuteronomy 33:15).
- What makes life meaningful is the God in your life. Life ordinarily is vague or not understood clearly without God—had no meaning without God!
• Allow Jesus Christ to come into your life, and reconcile you with God (2 Corinthians 5:17-19; Revelation 3:20).
- Do not abandon God because of whatever you are pursuing, there is nothing outside Him.
- When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they did contrary to the instruction or commandment given to them (Genesis 2:16,17); they discovered their nakedness—they gotten to know they were naked—as a result of their Disobedience (Genesis 3:6,7).
- If you had known God, but decided to turn your back against Him or leave Him, you would discover that you are nothing, you are nobody, without Him (John 15:4-6).
- Adam and Eve tried to sew fig leaves to cover their nakedness (Genesis 3:7). The truth is, there is no covering for anyone who had no relationship with God through Christ Jesus. Nothing in life can cover your nakedness like your relationship and communion with God—not even your wealth or whatever achievement in life you have had (Revelation 3:17,18).
- Nothing can take the place which God had reserved for Himself in the heart of humans. Serve God and build intimacy with Him, therein you find Joy, satisfaction, and meaning and Fulfilment in life.
• If you are yet to surrender your life to Christ Jesus, that is, you have not accepted Him as your Lord and Saviour; take a step now, tomorrow might be too late:
1 WE THEN AS WORKERS TOGETHER WITH HIM ALSO PLEAD WITH YOU NOT TO RECEIVE THE GRACE OF GOD IN VAIN. 2 FOR HE SAYS: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." BEHOLD, NOW IS THE ACCEPTED TIME; BEHOLD, NOW IS THE DAY OF SALVATION" (2 Corinthians 6:1,2 NKJV).
- Believe in your heart that He died for your Sins and resurrected that you might be justified (Romans 4:25).
THUS, tell Him you repent of your Sins and ask Him to come into your life and take His place (Revelation 3:20); CONFESS with your mouth that you accepted Him as your Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9,10); and that He would write your name in the Book of Life (Revelation 20:15; 21:27).
• You will not fail in Jesus' name.
- Should there be any ailment in your body, I declare Such ailment rooted up in Jesus' name.
- I declare total health for you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Peace!
