I wanted my Manesseh from God.

I was sitting on the verse that spoke of how Jesus' cries were heard because he offered up vehement prayers and because of His godly fears. I prayed vehemently and coupled it with godly fears but instead of granting me the desires of my heart, i was given a picture...

12 legions of angels were at his dispatch. All they needed was a word from Jesus and all the humiliations, betrayal, separations and sufferings would have ended. The earth and all its creation would be totally annihilated and the heartaches of God that had existed since the fall of mankind would have ceased... But He decided to go through the path God planned for him. He decided to go through the cross and.... through the pits of hell....

It could have been so simple... God could have destroyed all man kind and recreate earth there and then. But Jesus did it God's way...

For God to provide me with the miracle i desire is so simple. All it takes is a word. I could have achieved it effortlessly. but this would mean that i reach my end without enjoying the means. I would have sat down at the right hand of the father without the crown, without the marks of the cross. I would have harvested without sowing in tears. The harvest would have been INCOMPLETE.... Jesus went to sleep so that his disciples would wake up. as a disicple of jesus, i choose the route of the cross.. That i may have the mark of Christ over my life.
