ONLY A PASSAGE



These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

- Hebrews 11:13


This present life is a passage, we shouldn't be dismayed with the trials of life as people are faced with different kind of temptations. 

Material possession isn't entirely the affirmation of our victory or defeat in the battles of life. Hence, the Word of God admonishes us not to compare ourselves with others 2 Corinthians 10:12. Because when we do, we become judgemental, the truth is that we have no idea of the areas of victories or defeats of either theirs or ours.

"Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness,..." 1 Corinthians 4:5 

 

So, as we pass through this life, we should understand that the battles of life varies; our victories in our areas of battle, will determine if we qualify for our next phase. 

It will be your own undoing to ignore your battles, to engage in someone else's type of battle because you want a name for yourself, it may not go down well in the end.


Jesus is Lord!

EXIGENCY

  You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Amos 3:2.  Ever wondered how come so and so did such and got away with it, but when you attempted it, you got cut and punished for it? There could be chances you are separated to God as a chosen vessel [not certainly, but likely]. "if yes" , as a result, you can't do what you like, only what is permitted. The society have drifted to the place where people don't talk about purpose anymore except their individualistic goals. Well, if you came from God, He already has a plan for you, it is suppose to be your primary assignment in life to discover it. Not to ignore it, in pursuit of your own self centered aspirations, it may not go down well. Some of the reasons you were probably rejected in certain areas in life is not because you aren't qualified, but because you're out of place. When God chose Abram, he didn't succeed in anything else even at 75yrs...

Choose To Forgive

"And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors... For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:" Matt. 6:12;14. The Scripture admonish us to forgive not just debts, offenses, etc. In Isa. 43:25 God had to forgave us for His own sake, meaning each time we have unforgiveness in our heart, it limit the flow of the anointing which is the power of God at work in us. Many think they are perfect, but non is perfect and sinless before God, except by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, which is by grace. 1 John 1:8 "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." it does not matter the personality, not even Peter, James and John could claim righteousness without Jesus Christ and the blood. So we don't have examples to pattern after except Jesus Christ, He is the RIGHTEOUS (1John 2:1). We must be mindful, man will always want to make himself the pattern for others to follow after, like ...

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....
