HOLD FAST TO INSTRUCTION




 

 For I have come down from heaven not to do My own will and purpose but to do the will and purpose of Him Who sent Me.

John 6:38 AMPC


This quote from Bishop David Abioye is very enlightening, He said, "they that walk, uses common sense; they that run, apply principles. But they that fly, fly by instruction."

The Word of God is primarily a book of instructions, our personal opinion is irrelevant and inconsequential to God's instructions.


Reading through the gospels, you see Jesus the Son of God himself apparently saying, His opinion was/is irrelevant to the desire, command, instruction and Will of His Father, God. 


"And going a little farther, He threw Himself upon the ground on His face and prayed saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will [not what I desire], but as You will and desire." 

Matthew 26:39 AMPC, see also Mark 14:36, Luke 22:42.

Like Jesus, we all ought to put our personal opinions and ideas aside in total submission to His perfect plan. Why? He only knows the end from the beginning. 

We are here on earth to do the Will of the Father, anything other than the desire, Will and commandment of God; we are running our own course, and believe it; it isn't going to end well, because it is against God's original intent. 


I pray that God give you understanding into His perfect plan for you personally and grace to apply yourself to it! 


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...

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 ...
