Don't bow to something that's not real! You CANNOT serve a SUBSTIUTE! If God doesn't get you Out of trouble, He will Come to you in trouble.
If your faith cannot be tested, YOU can't be trusted. No matter what you go through, God is ABLE to pull you out. Able means capable. When you have faith in God you talk to your problems about God! Not talk to God about your problems. Praise God despite of what you going through.
Sometimes we serve GOD based on outcomes. What if it doesn't turn out the way you thought? Do you STILL TRUST GOD?? If you stand for God, He will do the same for you. Remember God has the last say. He will unravel you and straightem you right up.
