HOW DOES GOD FIT IN MY MESS ?

Ask Him.He will tell,but first there is a condition Jesus Christ taught in John 14:6

I am the way and the truth and the life.No man can come unto the Father but by the Son.
So the first step to God revealing answers to your problems is to receive   Jesus Christ into your heart by inviting Him in and telling Him you believe in Him.

In the Gospel of St John the writer teaches (John 1:12)

But as many as received Him to them gave He power to become Sons of God even to them who believe on His name..
Note a key word in this phrase....POWER....

Believers can find this a stumbling block in their walk of faith because the power must be used every minute of life after receiving Jesus Christ and confessing known sins and repenting from them and receiving His forgiveness

1 John 1;9 promises and teaches

If we confess our sins He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness

Worldly problems like finances,work,health continue to lead us away turning hearts from Spiritual power to using worldly powers to solve our problems.To continue using the power He gave us when we received Jesus Christ as Lord of our life we must do the works of God.

WHAT WORKS ?

When asked in John 6:28

What must we do to do the works God requires ?
Jesus answered in the next verse
The works of God is this,to believe in the one He has sent

To have faith in Jesus Christ study the Bible so you'll know what He wants us to do about problems.

Jesus prayed in John 17:17

Father sanctify them with thy truth,thy word is truth
To do this we should study the Bible.When we receive Jesus Christ we become His disciples.

Jesus commanded and taught in John 8:31-32

If you continue in my words then are you my disciples indeed and you will know the truth and the truth will make you free
Free from what?

Free from the wages of sin the worlds pressure,wrongs,through Jesus,who promised and taught in John 16:33

I have spoken these things to you so that in me you may have peace.In the world you shall have tribulation:but be of good cheer ;I have overcome the world
Now...many Bibles have bible studys in the back and many churches have bible study groups and one of these may be Gods ways of opening the door to His Kingdom for you.

God or Father and Jesus Christ our Savior are waiting right now to tell you how they fit in your mess.Col 3:17
