EVEN IF YOU CRY BLOOD 1

It has become a common thing to see children of God cry in His presence as they present their petitions and supplications which is not supposed to be. Only babies cry to communicate their needs while adults talk. However when an adult is seen crying when he or she is making a request he or she is being attended to has a child.

Hence crying does not mean that you will get what you want and that is exactly what we will be looking at in this epistle. Jesus Christ the son of God was once at this junction in His life where He thought “crying” or “sweating blood” could solve an issue or get God to change His mind concerning a pre-determined mission.

“And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground” Luke 22v44

Once upon a time, there lived a small boy named Joe and his mum in a town. Joe was enrolled in an elementary school while his mum worked with the Local Government secretariat in that town. One day Joe’s mum told him that she wouldn’t be coming home as early as she used to because of an extra official engagement. She therefore prepared his lunch, kept it in a cupboard and showed Joe where the key to the cupboard was kept. They both left off.

Joe returned very hungry as usual but instead of going straight to the cupboard, unlock it and take his lunch he sat outside crying and everyone that passed asked “why are you crying?” while he responded “I am hungry”. Yet he was holding the key to the cupboard keeping his food.

This is where so many are today, thinking their crying will solve their problems instead of going into the word and claiming what rightfully belongs to them. Joshua 1v8 says that having meditated continuously on the word and provisions of God;

“...thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success”

In other words, the answers to the questions of your life are not in crying, agonizing or worrying but in diligent studying and quality observation in doing all that you have meditated on by faith.  God bless you.
