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.


2 Corinthians 4:18 says, 

"While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."


The things that mostly appeals to the flesh are temporal. As a result, you have to see differently to know the right way [the God and good way] .


In this life you have to get to the place where you aren't moved by people's opinion, family or pair pressure, but by the Word of God only. It's has nothing to do with emotion, just simply obey what the Word of God says. You'd come out as a gold tried in the furnace of fire [affliction], shining and reflecting the glory of God although eternity; every other thing will be an addition in the process, not core. 


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...
