"God is 'in Control'??"

by John & Kelly Sielski

07/08/20255

The sons of God are led by the Spirit of God; and therefore noticeably, not by the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. Pretty simple, right? But do we comprehend the meaning of this in a society, today, which is become so driven by entertainment and amusement, such gross self-worship? The church and the world are become one, big, talent show and political spectacle; all the while they arrogantly affirm, “God is in control.” So, I can live “my life” unto myself, doing whatever I want, whenever I want, with whomever I want, as long as I want [*sounds more like, “I’m the one trying to be in control…!”]; but provided I “do my time” on Sundays, attend a church building, sign up for at least one “church program,” worship the pastor or priest, take good notes, and confess “all of my sins”? God is “well-pleased” with this and, as a result, will work everything in this temporal life to my favor, and unto my liking; because, you know, “God is in control??” So God was in control last night when a young boy somewhere got beaten unto a half inch of his life, by his alcoholic father? God was in control last night when a young girl somewhere was molested by a “trusted” family member? God is in control?? That’s quite interesting, because the last time I checked, God is love… God is light… God is life…  I never remember Jesus controlling everything and everyone; and I never remember reading anything in the scriptures about, “God is in control?” Our Father, who is Love, is actually inspiring faith; as, “…faith worketh by love…” Where is control?? We think our Father is just as manipulative and abusive as most of the rest of our relationships. Control is a manifestation of fear, but what would God Himself fear; and hasn’t our Father already given unto us both all that He is, and all that He has: a spirit of power, a spirit of love, and a spirit of a sound mind? That “all-controlling” concept does not appear amongst the sixteen attributes of love, as noted in 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8a (NKJV): “Love suffers long(1) and is kind(2); love does not envy(3); love does not parade itself(4), is not puffed up(5); does not behave rudely(6), does not seek its own(7), is not provoked(8), thinks no evil(9); does not rejoice in iniquity(10), but rejoices in the truth(11); bears all things(12), believes all things(13), hopes all things(14), endures all things(15). Love never fails(16)…” So where is, “…love is in control”?? On the contrary! Love has a drawing effect, a captivating effect, upon the heart that is aware of His Presence. The sons of God are led by the Spirit of God… but unto where, and unto Whom? The answers are found in the very heart-cry of our spirits: “Abba, Father!” Our access unto our Father is in our spirits, and the Spirit Himself is drawing us, our attention and our affections, away from this present evil world… not to conform unto it!  Our heart-image of our Heavenly Father remains perverse; because we continue to turn a deaf ear and a middle finger toward The Gospel of The Cross of Jesus Christ. Remember how The Parable of The Two Prodigal Sons is the exact, same parable as The Book of The Apocalypse of Jesus Christ?? But our Father continually remains offering unto us all… that sweet, blissful, internal fellowship and communion of the Holy Ghost, in our spirits! Was the Father controlling either the Younger Prodigal Son, or the Older Prodigal Son? No, the Father wasn’t controlling anything, or anyone, at all!! He was simply, patiently waiting for both of His sons’ hearts to become open, friendly and receptive toward Him; rather than continuing to live their lives in a way that resembled a bull charging through a china shop, to engage and have fun with everything that this present evil world and harlot church system value… More than ever before, we need to learn the leading of the Holy Spirit; because it is going to become increasingly, exponentially, more dangerous to be involved in things… even good things… where The Lamb & His Finished Work are not the centrality.
