I TOLD GOD I WANTED THIS BUT HE DISAPPOINTED ME.

There was a time I was praying for my Dad to get a job. I prayed, searched online for new openings, asked my friends to send me job offers so I could send to him. Finally, he got a call to come for an interview
I was so happy. I prayed, danced and thanked God. I remember telling my dad he was going to kill it and God was going to come through for him. My dad went for the interview and later on, he wasn& #39;t given the job. I was hurt, angry, mad at God. I remember telling God I hated him.
I refused to understand God. I was too angry. I was angry that he deceived me(I thought he did). He told me my dad was going to get a job but why this? Why was he rejected? I didn& #39;t understand it. I called God a liar. I hated God. I chose to give up.
I remember calling one of my friends and crying to her about it. Then she said "God is not a liar". God said your dad was going to get a job but did he say it was going to be this job? She said I know you wanted this for him but what God has is far more greater than this.
Isaiah 55:11
[11]So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Then I remembered the bible passage above. God has said it and he& #39;ll do it and guess what? He did it!!! Far beyond my expectations. God is not man that he should lie. Yes you wanted that job but did you ask God if that was the job he already prepared for you.
Isaiah 55:8-9
[8]For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord.
[9]For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.
The ways of God are mysterious. Cast all your cares and burdens upon him. He has heard you and he will do it. Has he said a thing and has refused to bring it to pass? The job you& #39;re crying over is not what God has prepared for you.
You need to understand that whatever God says is yours is yours!!! When the appointed time comes, you enter into it. Don& #39;t cry over that cgpa, job, finances. God says I have heard you, just listen to me. Be patient. Our God is a God of marvels!!!
When God prepares a place for you, no man can take over that place because has handed it over to you. The mercy of God is bringing you into places you can& #39;t even imagine just trust God. He would never disappoint you.
Philippians 4:6
[6]Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
Give thanks because that job is yours. That scholarship is yours and you step into it and take your place in destiny by the grace and favor of God. God bless you and Jesus loves you. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤" title="Rotes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Herz">
