Priest Place


God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;Hebrews 1:1-2

It is true that we all have access to the Father by his Spirit dwelling in us (born again believers), but some have special relationship with God more than others, because of deeper and constant fellowship with him always. It is in this fellowship, we'd develop the Fruits of the Spirit in us(received at new birth), otherwise the fruits once starved, will never really develop to maturity. If it's not developed, then one will be lagging behind in so many ways.

Luke 13:6-9 says, 
"He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. [7] Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? [8] And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: [9] And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down."

There are talents/gifts, God has given us, He expects us to engage those talents, and make profits with it or them. He expects us to produce fruits.
What happened, when we choose to remain baby Christian all our life (equivalent to, hiding your talent)? You become unproductive, subsequently a failure.
Many mistakes, riches for success. Riches can be part of success, but not, in its entirety.
Discovering your purpose and working in it, should be one's primary objective. Riches and others are additions.
From Luke 13:8 above, we saw the dresser (PRIEST, in a figure), pleading on behalf of the fig tree (FLOCKS, also in a figure) for more time. So the priest pray some more, and fast some more, putting in extra hours to see the fork become productive. So they can discover their place on time and be productive, before time run out on them. Because, if they don't become fruitful, they will surely be cut short,(Luke 13:1-5).

Brethren, you will reckon that the task of the dresser is important. I have heard people talk down on preachers, like they're nothing,(2 Corinthians 4:4). I know there are many fakes, even the Bible warned us about it. But it does not mean, all are fake. Without the few genuine ones on the altar praying, fasting and interceding, the whole world will be in a mess. The world is in a bit of mess right now, and people are complaining and confused already. imagine what it will be like, when there is absolutely non interceding any more; it will be disastrous.
That you have access to God, does not make the place of the priest void. Someone, at some point, thought you how to hear from God; don’t try to rob others from the privilege for the to develop to maturity.
We are expected, to all come to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, UNTO THE MEASURE OF THE STATURE OF THE FULLNESS OF CHRIST, Ephesians 4:13. 
God bless and lift you, in Jesus name!

Happy New Month, Jesus is Lord!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...
