A Person's Life Can Be Changed By An Encounter With God

By Kate McMahon


Numerous individuals search for hope in a troubled society. With the many negative situations that take place in today's modern world, it is not surprising that some people feel bereft and hopeless. An encounter with God is sometimes all that is necessary to turn a person's life around. Such experiences can make it easier for individuals to face challenging situations and difficult problems.

A person has everything to gain and nothing to lose when he or she believes in God and fights the good fight of faith. However, it is important to realize that the battle is not against other people, but against the devil. He is behind all oppression, sin, sickness, and negative situations. When a person knows God, his or her faith can be built up and this faith will give the person power to live a positive life, regardless of the circumstances he or she is facing.

Making statements such as "I can never win, " or "my situation is hopeless, " is never a wise course of action. Individuals should also refrain from thinking that God did not hear their prayers. Instead, believers should simply cling to their faith and eliminate negative thoughts that come from the devil.

Additionally, comfort is available from the Holy Spirit. He was sent to believers to assist them in overcoming the world's negativity. Everything the Holy Spirit does lines up with the word of God, and brings joy, hope, and faith. He will always encourage people and tell them that the Lord will help them through all the trials of life that they are faced with at any time, and assist them to overcome negative circumstances.

It is also essential to refuse to dwell on the past. Becoming fixated on negative things that occurred throughout one's life will only result in a feeling of hopelessness and depression. In specific Scriptures, it says that God will restore the years that traumatic events or negative experiences robbed from a person. He has promised to help men and women eliminate negative thoughts and bad memories.

To receive peace from the Lord, it is essential to avoid distractions. For instance, prayer time should be a time when the computer, the telephone, and other individuals are off limits so that one can seek God in a peaceful environment. When the aforementioned distractions are eliminated, it is easier for one to hear the Lord's voice and communicate with him better than if the person was attempting to concentrate in an area in which there was a high volume of activity.

Additionally, one must always come to God in faith. This is because the Scriptures say that without faith it is impossible to please Him. Fortunately, it only takes a small amount of faith to reach God, and individuals can build their faith every day in order to believe for greater things.

An encounter with God can be a life-changing event for essentially any person. This is because He can give people power to do what they were not capable of on their own. For this reason, seeking such an encounter is a worthwhile endeavor for virtually anyone.
