Can This Simple Question Asked By Jesus Help Me Understand The Will Of God?

Have you ever asked or said, Jesus help me? if so,
what would you say if Jesus asked you in return have
you ever read what I said in the Bible?

If you ever read the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke
and John you may have come across the parts where
Jesus seemed to get pretty annoyed when fellow
followers of God asked Him questions about the
Scriptures, and you may have noticed that He often
started His responses with questions of His own like,
"have you never read?", "how readest thou?", or
"have ye not read?".

Jesus had a brilliant way of explaining the word of
God to people without being judge mental, but at the
same time He hinted to them that they needed to spend
more time reading the Scriptures for themselves.

That way, they wouldn't need to ask Him questions
that seem to contradict the word of God because they
would've already found the answer, just like He did.

And let's not forget how He defeated the temptations
of the devil by starting His responses with "it is
written" right before quoting scripture and busting
open the devils diabolical plans to rob us of our
salvation. (Mt 4:4, LK 4:4)

The point is this, if you spend more time reading
your Bible, you'll uncover wisdom and understanding
for yourself which will help prevent you from making
errors in judging how the kingdom of God system
really works, like the people who asked the
questions to Jesus did.

Which is the main reason Jesus asked a question on
top of peoples questions before answering it.

A rule of thumb is that the kingdom of God system
seems to work in a way that's completely opposite of
what most people think.

Like, the poor is more blessed than the rich because
of Gods never ending mercy and compassion. (Mt 5:3)

Unlike what most people believe that the rich is the
most blessed because they can buy what they want, go
where they want, and do what they want.

And like, you should do good to people that curse
you, hate you and use you so you can help bring them
to God and understand the truth. (Mt 5:44)

Unlike what most people believe, which is to do the
same bad things back to them or worse to get revenge
and feel better.

Also, not eating for long periods of time and giving
God's will your full attention to improve your
spiritual, mental and physical health by fasting.
(Isa 58:6)

Unlike what most people believe, always eat three
meals a day, drink plenty of water, exercise, then
focus on making more money and whatever entertainment
makes you happy.

And also, not worrying about your problems in order
to get them solved quickly by releasing your faith
in God threw prayer. (Phl 4:6)

Unlike what most people believe you have to worry
yourself to death and stress your family and friends
out then beg, borrow or steal in order to come up
with a solution.

And the list goes on.

But the only way to keep these types of things
rooted in your mind is to keep going over the word
of God for yourself by meditating in the Bible.

Then when it's rooted you'll start speaking it
automatically without rehearsal in key situations.

Then you'll know you believe it because finally this
will cause you to either start doing what the word
of God says or you'll act accordingly.
