The Miracle Is, That It Is Just That Easy

"And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart; And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain. For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you." 1 Samuel 12:20-24

In the 12th chapter of the First Book of Samuel, the prophet addresses the Children of Israel concerning their foolish choice to seek an earthly king when they already had a heavenly king in the LORD God Almighty. It is important to note, that while Samuel pointed out the error of their ways, he did not condemn them. In fact, Samuel encouraged them to continue following after God. Samuel understood that even when we make mistakes we cannot despair, give up and turn away from God. On the contrary, that is the time for us to seek God. God will not forsake us. God can and will deliver us. I know the enemy is trying to confuse us. The enemy wants us to belief that it is not that easy. Satan want us to condemn ourselves by making us think that there is no turning back. The enemy wants us to believe that there is more required of us than what the Word says, but the devil is a liar. It is just that easy with God. Consider the story of Naaman as revealed in 2 Kings 5:10-14, "And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper. Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage. And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean? Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean." You see Naaman like many of us almost missed his blessing/healing by nearly allowing the enemy (through the spirits of pride and rage) to trick him. Thank God Naaman had people of faith around him. They would not allow him to miss his healing. When you are lost, confused and not quite sure what to do remember the words of our Saviour Jesus Christ, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." Matthew 11:28-29
