LIFE CURRENCY NUMBER 3

(PART 2)

Psalm 78:8, Proverbs 17:17

I will continue from where I stopped in my last post. 


I started by showing us what loyalty and committment means and the differences between the two. 


I also talked about how you may need either or both at different times and seasons in your life. 


I also showed us how that both are a two edged responsibility, loyalty and committment from others to you and from you to others. 


My post today will be addressed to those of us who have found a course or an entity(person or organization) to which we have to be loyal. 


Don't forget we are still talking about loyalty and committment as one of the currencies of life. 


Just the same way you can use money to make purchases in life you can also use loyalty and committment to make purchases in life. 


I want to assume that the people I am talking to today have found a course to which they have to be loyal or committed or both. 


If you have not, ask God to show you what or who you must be loyal and committed to. So, my question is how loyal or committed are you to that course?


Some don't have anything they are committed to and as such their strength and focus is scattered every where. 


The way a laser beam is used to cut through a metal is by focusing all its rays on the spot where the cut is to be made. 


Let me ask you again are you committed?Life makes room for committed people. 


If you are committed to your studies, it is only a matter of time before you will be noticed and that committment will take you to places beyond your widest imaginations. 


It will open doors for you that others are using money to open or can't even get opened at all.


It is those that are loyal to a course that imprints their name in the sand of time. 


If I mention Jesus, what comes to your mind immediately is the SAVIOUR of the world. Even though he was, the son of Joseph the carpenter, it will take you a long that time to remember that. You know why? Because, He was not committed and loyal to carpentry.


lf I mention Ken Saro Wiwa, you will remember the struggle for the Ogoni people. Apart from the struggle for Ogoni people I don't know what work Ken Saro Wiwa did or which course he studied in school.


I remember some years back I started going to a particular place to pray just to get away from the noise around and I was committed to that excercise. 


I was only doing it to be with the Lord and enjoy His presence but before long that committment began to draw attention and things started happening. 


That act of committment has opened doors of ministration and mentorship for me that I was not looking for. 


Nothing is too small to be committed to, no course is too little to be loyal to. Let your theme in life be: "Whatever I do, I do it well". Be faithful to it! The crown is given to those that are faithful to the end. 


Has the Lord given you instructions on your finances? Don't do it for 2 years and say I am tired, be committed to it. 


Did the Lord ask you to teach a group of teenagers? Don't say I have been doing it for 2years I am not seeing any changes in them yet. 


It is not about result first, it is about obedience first, your own obedience. Be loyal and committed to that assignment. 


You can't judge disobedience  when your obedience is not complete(fulfilled). There is a cycle of obedience you must complete, to judge disobedience in that particular area, 2Corinthians 10:6. 


Also, there is time attached to every work and purpose on earth, Ecclesiastes 3:1,17. There is a due season, a time of showing forth, a season of appearing, so you need patience. 


Not until the third year, the vineyard owner didn't look for fruits on the tree he planted and when he couldn't find it, he continued dressing it for one more year, Luke 13:6-9. 


How many of us can stay loyal and committed to a thing for that long? Have you fasted consistently for 5years, Have you prayed consistently for 5years. Have you tithed consistently for 10years? Be committed! Be faithful! Be loyal!


 There are instructions that the Lord gave me and I have been obeying for close to three years now, it is just recently that I began to see consistent result that I can attribute to that obedience. 


My prayer for you this morning is that, whatever it is you are doing, receive the grace to stay loyal and committed to it till the end in Jesus name.  


Pray and ask the Lord to give you grace for complete obedience and not change your instructions before the results begin to show.


PEACE


SALVATION PRAYER


Anything short of you being born again and living a life of holiness and purity hurt Jesus so much. But you can make things right here and now by saying this simple prayer and mean it genuinely from your heart:


 Lord Jesus I come to you today. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I cannot help myself. I repent of all my sins and I forsake them. Jesus, I invite you into my life, be my Lord, be my Saviour. 


Wash me by your precious blood, forgive my sins and write my name in the book of life. From this day, I promise to follow you all the rest of my life. Help me Lord, in Jesus name, Amen. Congratulations you are now born again!


PEACE

YOU ALSO HATH HE CALLED 1 CORINTHIANS 3:6-9 Imagine how hard the work of Apostle Paul would have been in the life of Timothy if there had been no Louise and Eunice to prepare the ground for his coming.   May be instead of finding him in church, he would have had to pick him up among drug addicts somewhere in town. And the time he would have spent to first of all clean him up might not have allowed for God's calling to fully find expression in the life of Timothy because a mother and a grandmother failed in their assignment.  As far as God is concerned, the work that Timothy's mother and grandmother did in his life was as equally important as that of Apostle Paul.  When we talk of Timothy, Apostle Paul's spiritual son immediately comes to mind but we don't readily remember Louis and Eunice, his mother and grandmother. Whether we like it or not, not everybody will have the five fold kind of ministry but everybody has a ministry, a ministry as equally important as the f...

THE PARTICIPATORY ROLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN YOUR LIFE ESTHER 2:9&15 Esther did not just become attractive to king Ahasuerus and became his queen, she was taught what to do to win the heart of the king by Hegai who had charge of the harem.  Jesus handed us over to the Holy Spirit to continue His ministry on earth(John 15:26), to teach us what to do to please the Father and make us attractive to Him, John 14:26  But first of all, Esther had to please Hegai, an example of the Holy Spirit by recognizing and honoring his person, she respected his opinions and suggestions and because of this she found his favour, Esther 2:9.  It was after Esther had pleased Hegai, that he showed her what to do, how to appear before the king, what to take along to win the heart of the king.  Hegai did not delay the supply of Esther's beauty treatment and special food because she found favour in his sight. We do not know how to please God, it is the Holy Spirit that teaches us, 1Corinth...

CHANGE FOCUS One major winning strategy is to keep your focus on what God is doing and not on what God is yet to do.  The devil is very adept at making people focus their attention either on what he is doing in their lives or on what God is not doing for them  This is the reason for sadness and depression. The reason why you are not happy is because you are focusing on the wrong thing.  God has done so much for you but the devil blind(veil) your eyes to them, 2Corinthians 4:4.  A victorious life is not one devoid of challenges but one that has mastered how not to focus on challenges but on purpose, John 16:33.  A believer is an overcomer, a mountain walker and a mountain mover.  Sometime ago, the Lord brought me across someone that had a major problem in His life and in the course of time, the problem got solved miraculously. It was a huge breakthrough.  No sooner had the problem got solved that the person started getting worried and anxious over other...
