Affliction< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Psalm 14, 107:17-19

Affliction belongs to the fool. Affliction can be in different ways: it could be a direct, or indirect. Also, affliction could grow silently without the knowledge of one that is afflicted until it becomes grown and out of control. It is not an interesting topic. Affliction is what should always be prayed against in the life of a person. Psalm 107:17, ÒFools, because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, were afflicted.Ó If you are not a fool, that settles you from self-affliction. Who are the fools? Psalm14:1, ÒThe fool has said in his heart, ÔThere is no God.Ó They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.ÕÓ Who are those that say there is no God? The ones that have ignored to do what God asked for. So many are walking around saying there is God with them, but their behavior and their way of life is saying it loudly that there is no God.  It is not only when you verbally claim that there is no God that counts you to be a fool, but when acting against what God says, you are also saying it loudly that there is no God. Most times, God designates an assignment, but you relegate the assignment by virtue of ignorance or laid-back approach. Watch it; ignorance makes a destitute out of a believer! Do not get yourself afflicted; ask God for mercy and grace to do what is always right before Him.
