AS HELPLESS AS BANANA LEAF

Man In Search Of God, The Solution Not In Religion

God is not shocked by what you do, no, nothing you do today or will ever do will amaze God. He knew all along.

God knew from the very day man fell by sin (disobedience in Genesis chapter 3) that he was turned or he has become weak as a banana leaf in the battles of life. Just what banana leaf suffers in the hand of wind (both in the rainstorm and harmattan) is what sin has turned man in the hand of the devil.

God always knows that except He sends help to man, man can never find help in anything else; neither from the top of the mountain nor in himself. God has never abandoned man in his struggle to reconnect with Him through a series of religious pursuits since the fall of man. Every struggle of man to connect back to God is answered in Christ Jesus.

Jesus is the reconnection path, bridge to God, our Father, our Creator. Nothing else can help you, whichever way you wish to do it, you are as helpless as Banana Leaf, weak and limited. Allow God to help you. God loves you and does not want you to perish in your struggles. God loves you not because you are a good or bad person, but because He created you. He is your Creator, your maker. No producer wishes to see his product suffers shipwreck or disasters in the marketplace.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

Allow Jesus (the Son of God) to save your soul for an eternal relationship, and reunion with His Father and ours, your Creator. Believe in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savour and you shall be saved.  (See John 1: 12, 3:6,14—16.)

Word of Confession: (Optional)

Lord Jesus, I confess to you that I have sinned against the LORD God - in the rebellion of my heart, I have disappointed your expectations on my life. I have fallen from Your grace and followed wrong influences around me. Today, I retrace my steps back to you - and I ask that in your mercy you accept me as your son and give to me (again) the promise of the Father - the Holy Spirit. Lord Jesus, please, come and make my heart your home, and from there rule in the affairs of all men. In Jesus Name I have prayed.

It is one thing to be full of the knowledge that puffs up, it is another thing to be full of the knowledge of His will. While the former gives a form of godliness the latter gives you the power to unlimited access in God.
