WALK IN OBEDIENCE

 



But Jesus called them to him , and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

Mark 10:42-44


Across the political sphere and even in ministry; we see this trend. Leaders with the fear of God are committed to serving the people, going the extra mile to achieve results. Those that are otherwise, rules with rigour and exercise authority over the people.

However, it is rather unfortunate to see that vast majority tend to turn towards those that lord it over them with iron fist. This has happened over and over again, and it still happening; you will see this trend, when you actually observe "people and systems", you will get a glimpse of events.

Vast majority of people like being controlled. But God doesn't want that, God speaking through Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 7:23, 

"Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men." 

He wants people to willingly make their choices in submission to higher authority, not to be controlled. There is a clear difference between the two. But I feel, people just want to blame others for their shortcomings rather than assume responsibility for their action. The easiest way to accomplish this is to relinquish their right to challenge the statues quo.

We have been called unto liberty, but we shouldn't use our liberty to service our fleshly desires at the expense of doing the right thing, but in reverence toward God at all time regardless of the circumstances. 


Jesus is Lord!

Strong 2020

Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: - 1 Corinthians 15:36 No seed that is afraid of being planted, will ever think itself qualified to ever produce more fruits, it will die alone. Every seed that must reproduce, must of a necessity go through the process of plantation, if the future is in view. It is hard, yes. But that is the only way to duplicate oneself. John 12:24 says,  "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit."  In this year 2020, if you seriously care, you need to die to self, and alive to God, in other to impact your world. Living a life of mediocre, will not benefit you, and certainly no one else around. Strong? Yes! Why not, if it will get your attention. So, no matter how you have ignored God's instructions until now, make a quality decision to realign, this new year, and start early. Happy New Year, once again...

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...
