Way back
when (a few years ago) when I wasn’t saved in some points in my life I was
filled with sadness, fear, hurt, rebellion, vanity, and many other spirits that
just came with not being saved. I can say that I was looking for something to
fill a void because how many know that majority of the time while we weren’t
saved and doing whatever that we was looking for something to fill an empty
spot within us whether it was with food/having a gluttonous spirit, drinking,
smoking, having sex; whatever it was our hearts were searching for something at
least mine was. For example at one point in my life my family and I lost our
home and was living with family and friends for a month or so, and while in this
test my heart was searching for a comfort that no one could give me but God,
and I was willing to do anything to find it. I was willing to almost give my
purity up (if it won’t for God blocking every “appointment” I scheduled it
would have happened) which would have led to soul ties that were not needed at
all! I was searching in all the wrong places and for the wrong things to fill a
void that no person or thing here on earth can fill.
After
searching for the wrong one day it was like God slapped me like Nicole you’re
not going to find what you’re looking for because you are not searching for me.
It didn’t happen overnight, but quickly I started to search for God/Be saved
(But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you seek
him with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29). Searching
for God led to me totally surrendering my life to Him and giving up the spirits
that were not of him. I gave up the obsession of secular music (waking up, in
class, at home, and going to sleep listening to secular music), the wrong
friends (those that know you’re trying to do right but persuading you to do
wrong), and I started getting busy doing ministry to glorify Him and also to
not have an idle mind. God has changed my life in so many ways when searching
and now continuing to pursue Him because although situations come God is that
comforter and void filler that keeps me level headed (should’ve been cray cray
a long time ago), and once you find someone that will never leaves you or say
you’re not important to me that’s someone you can never give up on!
Search for
God he will fill every void that you think cannot be filled!
If you don’t
know where to start with searching for God…Step 1: Give your life to God
(Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your
heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9).
I will end
with this scripture “Come to me, all you who
are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take
my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and
you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy
and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
I love you
all, but REMEMBER that God loves you MOST!! Be Blessed!
Keep up the good work! Love Auntie Sheila
