Has GOD Ever Disappointed Or Failed You? by Duke007(m): 7:23am On Apr 10, 2022
Good morning my people, this issue has consumed me for years and l have learn not to question divinity but l think it's high time l expressed myself.

My first experience was when l was 20 years old. There was this sick man we were praying for, he ended up dying, it was very painful. In another scenario, a brother drank an acid and was surviving it when he suddenly died after series of prayers.
My own personal experience has made me feel that God does fails me atimes. This is not to say that God has not done well for me, that am alive is a proof of God's faithfulness. Do l have people who share my feelings?

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.


What you think is failure is only a path to a greater success.

Don't lose hope and don't allow the devil to tell you lies about God.

If God did not fail Joseph even when he was cast in to prison, tell me why would he fail those that come for him for help.


What you see is the sign of trials and temptation and all belivers must face it because that is what God uses to test our faith in Him.


If you stick to the truth of God's word, you will surely come back with a testimony


Have a blessed sunday smiley

If God already knows the answer to every outcome and decision even before I make it, how is that free Will?

that is why it is call a choice. If you do it, it is upto you.


God knows what will happen if you do good and God knows what will happen if you do bad.


Making that decision is not upto God but upto you as an individual.

It’s no longer a choice when your god has already known about it, he has already decided the outcome even before I made the decision.
Or are you saying your god doesn’t know exactly the choice I’ll pick, he is just guessing and hoping I choose good? That’s not all knowing then.. even humans can do that.

If I give you a gun to shoot somebody, the truth is you can either shoot that person or walk away.

That is what us call freedom of choice.

It is not upto me to know if you will shoot him or not. All I know is that I know the result of any decision you make.

If you shoot the man, he will die

If you dont shoot the man, he will live.

Any decsion you make is upto you and not God.

But he knows the direction of every decision you make.

Everybody note the word "atimes". Meaning, He sometimes Answers and grants your prayers.

Which means you think that God is your Personal genie and Wish Master! (Kai, una no dey Dear God O. Una no know Who una dey deal with. Una even fear una Papa pass God and even respect say him get right to give you wetin hin wan give you. But when it Comes to the Papa of your papa, U no fear!)

Then you wonder why God no dey hear una again!

God don suffer from people hand and mouth.

See how you people Curse yourselves?

Abeg tell them O. Because He granted one or 2 of their prayers or their neighbours prayers, therefore the fool thinks and says that "God must Answer him own".

Curse is their Answers, and their prayers will never (God good sha) so almost never be answered!

So he knows the choice I’ll choose exactly?
If he knows the choice I’ll choose exactly before I choose it, then did I make it voluntarily?

Threatening me with hell, and enticing me with heaven is that not enough enforcement? grin

And you are contradicting yourself.

If you go to heaven or hell. It is your choice and decision.


That is why it is called freedom.
You are free to choose anything you want but God knows the outcome of every decision made.

That is why they call him Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.

Because He knows the end of every decision made

But God will not force you to choose because that is the freedom He gave us

Your god doesn’t know the exact option I’ll pick exactly just like a human will do, we can all make guesses and wait for the one that we chose to come true, but we don’t know the exact one it will choose, he is just guessing and hoping I choose a better one, then your god is not all knowing.

The people complaining about this phenomenon were the same people who thought they were Christians since they have Bibles and go to a place called church, meanwhile, they are not.

So, a Christian does not lie nor has any reason to lie, for suffer and lack will always make men cry out and confess that they are suffering!

So you talk rubbish!

Beginning and the end, yet your god doesn’t know the exact number of people that will make heaven and hell? That’s a bad planner and not all knowing.

He knows the end of every decision you make but He will not force you to make any decision He will only send someone to encourage you to make the right decision but you are still free to make any decision of your choice.


God created Adam and told him not to eat of the tree of good and evil.
If Adam decides to eat the fruit or not, it is upto Afam and not God because Adam has been given the freedom to choose.

God can not bless any man except He test that man


You think say God no sabi say some Men only love Him because of the blessings He brings?

Will you call it a love if your wife only love you when she needs something from you but when you hit a stumbling block, she will flee with your children?



Even Abraham had to be tested before he got the blessings of God.

Look God no dey joke with His blessings, so He needs the right mind to get it because if the blessings fall into the wrong hands, what you will have is destruction and caos just as you are seeing i. Ukraine vs Russia today.

Give an undeserving man power and he will abuse it. GOD knows wassup

The first Blessings is Love and Life! God Moves First. Hence "I first loved you before we love Him" 1 John 4:19

And people do not appreciate that these things are also blessings and that blessings are only riches and the things you like.
