Topic for Friday 19: 2: 21: Why are you lonely?

By Dr D.K Olukoya General Overseer MFM worldwide

Do you not know that God is still in the business of doing miracles? Since He is still Miracles-Working-God. Before you finish reading this piece, if you will believe, your life shall be instrument of His miracles, signs & wonders in the name of Jesus.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Lev. 19-21

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Ps 25: 16-18

MEMORY VERSE: Isa. 41:10 

“Fear thou not; I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: Except you are alone with God, loneliness is nothing but an emotional drain, an unconscious self-imprisonment.

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: I decree that every veil of darkness shielding you from divine illumination be lifted and roasted today, in the name of Jesus

The world today is infested with, “I”, “me”, “my” and “mine”. This is a far cry from the desire of God for His children. We are first and foremost expected to be in intimacy with God, then with fellow humans. Loneliness could occur as a result of many reasons, hidden or open. These include the feeling of being unloved, unwanted or abandoned. It starts with funny thoughts, strange imaginations and untrue conclusions about persons, situations and relationships.

It degenerates into harboring fear, insecurity, suspicion, hurts, wounds, pains, keeping records of offenses, misconceptions, doubts and more. It could also be as a result of personal issues arising from disappointment, discouragement, betrayal, and all such. Whatever the cause, loneliness is a kingdom of self! God is shut out and fellow men too. The victim sees and judges issue from his own faulty perspective. He doesn’t see what is good in others hence he lives and operates alone.

This negative attitude becomes an easy access for the enemy. The devil creeps in to be the cheerleader and preacher to this person. He takes advantage of this situation to build his stronghold in his mind and offers ungodly counsel, thereby compounding his problems. He ends up stealing the peace and joy of such his victims.

Are you lonely? Do you often feel alone even when in a crowd? Do you feel unnoticed, uncomfortable and unwanted in the midst of friends? Do you have the tendency of easily withdrawing whenever there is an issue to be resolved? Do you dislike confrontation? Are you comfortable keeping malice? Do you feel offended whenever you’re not on the winning side? God respects healthy and godly quietness not an ominous one!

Loneliness breaks and destroys the network of people around you and can take you deeper than you ever bargain. The enemy enjoys the person who engages in solitude without the Holy Spirit. We should always remember the counsel of God’s word not to forsake the gathering of the saints (Heb.10: 25; Ps 133:1-3). Jesus emphatically told us that offence cannot but come (Luke 17:1a).

God promises to always be by His children; hence, with Him you can never be lonely. No matter your troubles and woes, loneliness is not the answer. I Cor. 10:13 says that God is able to deliver you from all your troubles. God sees your pains and can sort you out. Don’t be a slave to your problems!
Trust God and there shall be a way out, in Jesus’ name.
