[img][/img] The displaced God? You must be wondering, what an irony it is for a God so mighty and surpassing to be reported as displaced. Yes, he is literary, in the Christianity of today where priorities are misplaced, false doctrines are taught, wrong motives are strongly held unto, and painfully, God has been de-throne from the hearts of men.
Material wealth, spouses, ambitions, self-willed opinions and philosophies, to mention but a few. Have taken the place of God in the hearts of men. “what would people say?” is now put above “the will of God”. What a sad truth it is, but the fact still remains that the main essence of man’s creation has been misunderstood. Which is, fellowship with a pure and true worship of God in the fullness of his glory and majesty. This is a secrete behind the success and progress of Heaven. We no doubt need a strong emphasis and genuine hunger for “thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven” as we have it from the Lord’s Prayer. Man has become a slave to things meant for his service, dissipating all his energy in search of relevance and recognition when the positioning of God in his rightful place brings about all these by default.
This has brought about frustration and unproductive busyness which is as a result of a “jealous” God been displaced from his rightful position. Everything has to attach its self to its source for the purpose of its sustenance and proper nourishment. Just as the fish is bound to be in water, and the plant to the soil, so are we bound to be in God, and in turn Him in us. Then and only then can man find fulfillment, relevance, respect, influence and lots more.
However, we in no question need a remedy which lies in the conscious effort of restoring “the displaced God” to his rightful position and place of relevance in our lives. This can only be made possible by a deliberate substitution of “things” with the reverence and fear of God, and a change in paradigm where God would not only be seen as that big guy in the sky, but as a personality with complete senses and feelings that deserves respect, accolade, praise and a platform in our lives for him to offer us his best.
Conclusively, the phenomenon of “the displaced God” is evident in the churches, and so called Christianity of today where activities have been mistaken for genuine service. I pray you to consciously restore the all surpassing God to his rightful position and flourish. Peace.

AGURE, Julius Terngu.
