March 28, 2012 Order (No Confusion, Chaos) 1 Corinthians 14:33 : For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
Today, as we embark on this powerful 40 days of Lenten Season, today we are praying about Order (No Confusion, Chaos). If we tell the truth, most our lives have no order, and seem to be filled with lots of confusion and chaos, but God says in his word that he is not author of confusion! 1 Corinthians 14:33 : For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

God is not the author of confusion
“God is not the author of confusion”. After looking back over my life, I really know what it means to say that God is not the author of confusion. It seems like no matter what you do or where you go, confusion will follow.. I realized that half my battles in my past 30 years were not even my own, but I have such a deep love for my family and the people of God, and just have this gene where I feel the need to protect those the seem helpless when the enemy comes against them… I feel God made me to deal with confusion and chaos.. However, I do know that God is God of order and he does not endorse bad behavior and us acting unseemingly.. God is a God of “LOVE” and “ORDER” – He said in 1 Corinthians 14:40 – Let all things be done decently and in order. On that note, I’m praying for order in my life, my families life, my friends all around the world that may be struggling as I do in this area. God is able to do anything but fail…
When you hear somebody recite a verse of scripture and you think it might not have a thing in the world to do with you personally.. Think again!!!
What do I have to do to go to heaven?
God isn’t waiting to judge you. God isn’t waiting to condemn you. He’s waiting to receive you with mercy, with love, with open arms, and forgive all your sins. Will you come to Him? Will you turn from your sin and promise to live for Him?
“If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” — Romans 10:9
