Proverbs 19:3 says, "A person's own folly leads to their ruin, yet their heart rages against the Lord."

This verse highlights the tendency for people to make foolish choices that lead to negative consequences, and then, instead of taking responsibility, they blame God for their misfortunes. This emphasizes the importance of wisdom and accountability for one's own actions. 

People ruin their lives by their own foolishness and want to blame God. Most of our dilemmas are a result of us putting ourselves there and then we're praying for miracles. Our God is so great He will often answer us but miracles are not supposed to be a crutch.. They are supposed to be a demonstration of His grace and power not the solution to our rebellion.

Throughout the Bible the Hebrews/Israel's  downfall was a result of their own rebellion towards God.

A good majority of what we go through we blame on the devil but it's more often the result of our own emotional decisions and disobedience. When we can't control our behavior, manage time or money in the first place, there is no excuse to be angry with God on Sunday.

However, Gods’ mercies still come through, but we can't fool God. We shouldn't have to keep praying to be rescued from the sin we're putting ourselves into. What we need to do is stop going where He never sent us. The devil has no authority over the Followers of Christ but he will use the doors of sin we refuse to shut.

God is the one waiting on us with open arms to grow spiritually, we shouldn't be waiting on him. Many believers have normalized spiritual weakness and think it's okay to be little bit disobedient.

Father God, thank You for rescuing us even when we don't deserve it. Help us mature spiritually so we can enjoy the peace that comes from a relationship with You.

Give us the wisdom to distinguish good from evil so our relationship with You will mature, in Jesus name we pray, amen.🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
