When we turn our face away from God and show him our back, we will face darkness. God is light and any other thing aside from him is darkness. In other to save people, the Apostle Paul was commanded by the Lord Jesus to open the eyes of people and bring them into light from darkness.
Acts 26:18
KING JAMES VERSION says;
To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
This is what we are supposed to do but I’m shocked to see the majority of people turn to Satan through the vices of life instead of turning to God, our light. People are now setting aside what is right and they are now focusing on what is wrong.
War that kills millions, hunger that kills millions of people, earthquakes, pandemics are all happening because we have turned our face away from God and anyone who does that will never have a good life because such person will be disturbed by all of these evil that I have listed here.
Unfortunately, so many people are now like this and it keeps getting worse. The good ones are now getting affected by all of these evil and it affects us all together. That’s why so many people who are good also lost their lives to the pandemic or other evils that happens in the world.
Most of us seem to be blaming God about all that has happened. How will we blame the person we turned our backs to? That’s not reasonable and for all of these to end, we have to make sure that we turn our faces to God again and he will forgive us wholeheartedly.
