Dependency or Addiction??

Dependency differs greatly from an addiction. Addiction brings with it a bad habit of only wanting God to “fix” something instead of knowing that my complete dependency on him will cause all things to work together for my good. 
To be challenged/tested in the Lord and pass will always bring promotion, upgrade in stature, new levels, higher glory and provision and protection. 
Being dependent upon God isn't a weakness because when we are weak then he is strong. We shouldn't want to keep having to get a fix in order for us to keep asking, seeking and knocking on every door that God places in front of us; if he doesn't fix our problem or ebb our turmoil, then we are no longer fixated on him as being our God. However, God wants us so dependent upon him that we know that our gaze is stayed upon him to be the author and finisher of our faith.
Some go cold turkey and repent and walk out their faith in God without ever looking back in the rear-view mirrors of life; while others need to be weaned off the dependency of the world system’s and of life itself as they have become accustomed to before meeting face-to-face with God. But if you have ever had that opportunity to experience where God has revealed himself to you, then you know that there is no going back because he is better than any high we have ever known – we know that we have come to a place where there is no return from.
God is more than a fix but he is the source from who all blessings flow. If you have the source then there is no lack in getting whatever it is that we stand in need of. No source – No resources.
