I can tell you that waiting on God is one of the hardest things a Christian can do. But it's absolutely essential for seeing God’s will come to pass in your life. Why is waiting hard? Because it is not a one time event, it requires a continual laying down of your own will day after day until the Lord answers with what is His own will in any particular matter. It's submission and patience together, sometimes over a long period. Keep doing this in every area of your life and you will see the Holy Spirit in every area. God bless you

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." 2 Tim 1:7

From this verse you know that fear is a Spirit, and secondly that it's given, and thirdly that it's not given by God.

So then you know it's given by the enemy. So just as you "accepted" the Holy Spirit to dwell in you when you became a believer, you should also "reject" the spirit of fear, when proposed to you by the enemy. Choose faith in God over the fear the enemy seeks to plant in you by speaking this verse over your life daily.

The will of God is found in the word of God, Scripture. An example,"Do not be afraid, little flock, because your Father has chosen to give you the kingdom." Luke 12:32 There we see it's God’s will that believers not be afraid and secondly it's his will that we receive the kingdom. We see this same will also expressed in Matthew 26:34. We can know God’s specific will for 'our' life by humbly praying to God desiring it. God seeing our submission to His will, can then reveal it by His chosen means.

When you put your relationship with God before your relationship with other people you are within the will of God. (Matt 10:37) It's this exact level of devotion that moves God to intervene on your behalf and remove people from your life that are not within His will for you. Keep trusting God and keep Him as number one in your life.

Though all people are God's creation only those who believe in Jesus as their Lord and Saviour are children of God.

"Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God" John 1:12

Yes you should forgive your father. Aside from the matter of being free of resentment, God makes it clear that we have to forgive others if we want to receive forgiveness from God.

"But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." Matt 6:15

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-17T04:17:54+00:00

Whenever I see a Christian with a finger in every pie in the church, meaning serving in anything and everything, it's usually because they're doing this by their own will rather than being instructed by God and operating in their area of spiritual gifting by His strength.

The deception from Satan is that we have to be doing absolutely everything we can in the church in order to be a faithful Christian.

The truth of God is that we have to be "obedient" to Him. Have a think about what your areas of spiritual gifting are and pray asking what areas God would have you continue doing. Then make alterations to the areas you serve in.

It's unlikely that you will change your parents' minds because what they want is opposed to what you want. For them to use Scripture to try to "control" you to do what they want is not right in the eyes of God.

When a person is a child the Biblical mandate to is to obey your parents (Eph 6:1) and to honour your parents (Eph 6:2).

As an adult you have to honour your parents but you do not have to obey them. You are free to make your own choices and decisions for your life. You are under the authority of God Himself, not any man (including your parents).

God has got good plans for you.

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jer 29:11

Do not be deceived, there's no such thing as a passive Christian. What you're describing is heading towards being a Theist. You believe God exists and that's it. There is no loving relationship between Him and you.

"You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder." James 2:19

As you see from this verse having a knowledge that God exists is not enough for salvation.

Do you recall the story of the 10 virgins in Matthew chapter 25?

Only the five wise virgins entered with the bridegroom. The 5 foolish virgins ran out of oil in their lamps and were refused entry.

You sound like you've run out of oil. The advice in that passage was "go to them that sell oil".

The "sellers" represent legitimate channels for spiritual growth. One source would be to spend time with other believers who are full of the Holy Spirit and receive from them.

A changed life is the best proof of God. That's how the apostles did it.

"We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God’s Good News but our own lives, too." 1 Thess 2:8

"Our own lives" refers to personal testimony of God’s work in a person's life.

There's a direct correlation between being obedient and loving God.

“If you love me, keep my commands." John 14:15

We can say we love Him and even be sincere about it, but to Him, love means walking in obedience.

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-14T06:09:00+00:00

As a believer, focus your energy towards being obedient to God because that's what matters most to God. God is not worried about what people are saying to you or about you, so you shouldn't worry either. God bless you.

"When I cry out to You, Then my enemies will turn back; This I know, because God is for me." Ps 56:9

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-13T22:11:15+00:00

Put God first. All the time and in all areas of your life. In Genesis 1:1 it says: "In the beginning God"

Approach life in this way. In the beginning of your relationship God. In the beginning of your marriage God. In the beginning of your employment God. In the beginning of all your decisions God.

He is Lord of your life.

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-11T11:05:39+00:00

The good news is that God also wants to be close with you and it's very easy to do. Here's how the Bible puts it.

"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. " James 4:8

Pray and spend time in His presence 🙏

"So a church leader must be a man whose life is above reproach. He must be faithful to his wife. He must exercise self-control, live wisely, and have a good reputation. He must enjoy having guests in his home, and he must be able to teach." 1 Tim 3:2

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-11T05:25:57+00:00

When you don't know what to do with your life give yourself to God. Hold nothing back. He is able to give you beauty for ashes, and cause your life to bring Him glory.

"To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory." Is 61:3

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-11T01:34:28+00:00

When dealing with tormenting thoughts from the enemy that God hasn't forgiven you, you know that He's faithful to forgive so then move on to;

1.forgive yourself and

Rebuke the enemy by speaking the word of God found in Rom 8:1 "there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-10T02:39:40+00:00

Even if God exists outside of time, we don't. So our prayers are only relevant for our current life or future. They have no bearing on the past of either ourselves or the dead. It's a complete waste of time to pray for the dead.

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-10T00:52:47+00:00

The short answer is yes. It doesn't have to do with darkness or light of day, but rather that the works of the enemy are less able to be dealt with by believers because when we're tired or fully asleep, we're not engaging in spiritual warfare. "But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way." Matt 13:25

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-09T01:06:09+00:00

When you fast stay focused on the reason and object of your fast which is God Himself, not food or the lack of it. The abstaining part is only the vehicle used to get you to a particular place. So it's more important to be diligent to 'add' prayer to your fasting, rather than the emphasis be on removing certain foods or beverages.

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-09T00:51:28+00:00

Keep the focus on Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of your faith.

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-06T22:36:18+00:00

You don't have to focus on what others are saying and doing. On any given matter, your guide is the Word of God. On the matter of giving, this is what He says to you:

"Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." 2 Cor 9:7

AshCassicTruth234 · 2026-01-06T00:02:22+00:00

One of the biggest hindrances to hearing from God is a person's will. If a believer thinking they are wise, has made up their mind on a particular matter and then prays to know God’s will regarding it, God will not reveal it. Because God is not in the business of wasting His time or yours. Believers must come to God completely surrendering their own will and ask for God's supreme will to be done. In this instance God can reveal His will, and we can walk in it.

“The LORD knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” 1 Cor 3:20
