The Law of Location

Thu, 23 Jul 2020

‘The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden and there He put the man whom He had formed.’ Genesis 2:8 NKJV

First God made the garden, then He made man and woman and placed them in the garden. This is called ‘the law of location’. Understand this: you will succeed when you are where God wants you to be.

Have you ever experienced the pain of a dislocated joint? It’s miserable. So is trying to ‘do your own thing’ instead of doing God’s will. You can go the easy way or the hard way; God gives you that option. But eventually you’ll go, or you’ll go under. Jonah is an example of this—he decided not to go to Nineveh and preach because he didn’t like the people who lived there. Helping them was the last thing he wanted to do, so he decided to run from his God-given assignment in Nineveh. As a result he ran into a storm, caused misery and loss for everyone on board, and hit bottom before he finally got to where God wanted him to go. Learn from Jonah. Don’t repeat his foolish, costly, and unnecessary mistake.

God told Adam to ‘be fruitful and multiply.’ (Genesis 1:28 NKJV) Then He told him, ‘You have to work at it.’ When you get to the right place, don’t expect your assignment to be easy or think you'll become successful overnight. American clergyman and author Phillips Brooks prayed, ‘Lord, we ask You not for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.’

When Paul prayed for relief, God told him, ‘My grace is sufficient for you.’ (2 Corinthians 12:9 NKJV) When you’re in the right place, doing what God wants, you’ll thrive in conditions others crumble under because you’ll be ‘graced’ to handle it.

Sometimes we have to go through a hard way. We all go through some trials in life. Now, my neighbors sue me for letting their house been robbed. While, I didn't do anything, and didn't even know that their house was robbed. I need to hire a lawyer, to go through this trial.

I’m sorry to hear about what happened to you. At our old place, we had some horrible neighbors too. It was almost impossible to live next to them. When I’ve got a new job, we wanted to sell our place to move to a better house. We listed our home, and a lot of visitors liked our backyard garden. One of the potential customers told us that she fell in love with our garden. Well, the next day, she came again to see the house, but in the morning, we found out that our beloved neighbors chopped the tops of our trees because they block the sunlight for them. We found lawyers on https://waymanandlong.co.uk/new-services/property-law/conveyancing-prices/ that help us to get compensation from our neighbors and to sell our place for a reasonable price.

I have some similar problems with my neighbors too. They just destroy my plants, that accidentally appear on their territory. I called police several times, but nothing really helped. Do you think that it will be possible to sue them?
