What are the negative effect of taking shortcut in life

We all want to be at the top, but taking shortcuts is one of the most destructive things you can do. Shortcuts were offered by Satan when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness. He showed Jesus a short way to carry out God's will, and a simple way to avoid the cross. Satan loves to provide shortcuts, but God's methods are far too long and difficult. 

God's will must be carried out in God's timing and in God's manner. Any other method is ineffective in achieving the end result that God desires.

It was never implied when you became a Christian that God would make your life easier. We will face hardships, trials, and tribulations, just as Jesus did when he walked this earth, and just as Jesus predicted. 

Things obtained by taking shortcuts never last. James tells us in the Bible to rejoice in our trials because they help us to persevere in our faith James 1:2. Our initial response is frequently a litmus test for our faith.

God wants us to have humility, patience, and proper values instilled in us. I assure you that the proper response is to put your faith in his method. If you feel like you've been standing in the same place for too long, pray and wait on the LORD. Our strength will be renewed if we put our trust in the LORD, according to Isaiah 40:31. We'll be able to soar like eagles, run without exhaustion, and walk without becoming dizzy.

 We find our strength in God, which is a wise decision because it allows us to run without becoming exhausted. God will perform miracles and move mountains when we put our faith and trust in him.

So, today, make a prayer to the Lord, and tell him you can't do it alone and that you need his help. If life were always easy and simple, we would never have the opportunity to grow spiritually. Maintain a positive attitude, a humble and submissive heart, and trust in God's plan for your life.

Why You Find It Difficult to Recover Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1. Unresolved Spiritual Covenants and Agreements One major reason people struggle to recover their destiny is because of unseen spiritual agreements or covenants, knowingly or unknowingly entered into. These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Understanding Destiny Swapping: A Hidden Agenda Over Your Purpose (PART 1)

Have you ever felt like something is off in your life—like you're living a life that doesn’t belong to you? You're talented, passionate, and full of dreams, yet doors remain closed and progress is mysteriously delayed.

In simple terms, destiny swapping means you end up living a life that is not yours, while someone else is living the blessings, favor, or opportunities that were m...
