The Law of Location

Thu, 23 Jul 2020

‘The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden and there He put the man whom He had formed.’ Genesis 2:8 NKJV

First God made the garden, then He made man and woman and placed them in the garden. This is called ‘the law of location’. Understand this: you will succeed when you are where God wants you to be.

Have you ever experienced the pain of a dislocated joint? It’s miserable. So is trying to ‘do your own thing’ instead of doing God’s will. You can go the easy way or the hard way; God gives you that option. But eventually you’ll go, or you’ll go under. Jonah is an example of this—he decided not to go to Nineveh and preach because he didn’t like the people who lived there. Helping them was the last thing he wanted to do, so he decided to run from his God-given assignment in Nineveh. As a result he ran into a storm, caused misery and loss for everyone on board, and hit bottom before he finally got to where God wanted him to go. Learn from Jonah. Don’t repeat his foolish, costly, and unnecessary mistake.

God told Adam to ‘be fruitful and multiply.’ (Genesis 1:28 NKJV) Then He told him, ‘You have to work at it.’ When you get to the right place, don’t expect your assignment to be easy or think you'll become successful overnight. American clergyman and author Phillips Brooks prayed, ‘Lord, we ask You not for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.’

When Paul prayed for relief, God told him, ‘My grace is sufficient for you.’ (2 Corinthians 12:9 NKJV) When you’re in the right place, doing what God wants, you’ll thrive in conditions others crumble under because you’ll be ‘graced’ to handle it.

Nairaland General › You're Called To Be An Overcome. by Btruth(op): 7:49am On Jul 22, 2020
You’re Called To Be An Overcomer

Wed, 22 Jul 2020

‘To him who overcomes.’ Revelation 2:7 NKJV

Nothing becomes great until it overcomes something. Paul writes, ‘For a great… door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.’ (1 Corinthians 16:9 NKJV) Great doors of opportunity come with great challenges, and those challenges will stretch your faith. If outstanding success came easy, everybody would have it. But if everybody had it, then it wouldn’t be outstanding success.

How does a caterpillar develop into a butterfly? By overcoming the cocoon. Would it be easier to stay in the comfort of the cocoon? Some days the struggle is so great that the caterpillar probably thinks so. But the price of freedom, flight, and discovery, is struggle, development, and breakthrough. There is no other way. Why did Jesus send His disciples into the storm on the Sea of Galilee? To teach them to trust Him in every situation of life. Soon He’d be leaving them, so He used different experiences to equip them for the future.

What are you trying to overcome today? Instead of complaining about it, or asking God to take it away, try to see it as preparation for the thing He has called you to do. Read these Scriptures.

‘To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life.’ (Revelation 2:7 NKJV)

‘Blessed is the man who endures temptation.’ (James 1:12 NKJV)

‘Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.’ (Matthew 5:10 NKJV)

‘Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.’ (Romans 12:21 NKJV)

‘Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.’ (Ephesians 6:11 NKJV)

Today you’re called to be an overcomer.

God Can Restore Your Fortunes

Tue, 21 Jul 2020

‘The Lord restored his fortunes.’ Job 42:10 NLT

In his book The Spiritual Lives of the Great Composers, Patrick Kavanaugh discusses George Frideric Handel’s musical masterpiece Messiah. An unpredictable composer at best, Handel spent much of his up-and-down career moving from one failure to another. In those days declaring bankruptcy wasn’t an option, and by 1741, Handel was drowning in debt. Without a miracle, prison was inevitable. He decided to perform his farewell concert and retire a failure at age fifty-six. But when a friend handed him a libretto on the life of Jesus based on selected Scriptures from the Bible, everything changed.

Handel threw himself into writing and composing, and in a staggering stretch completed Part One in six days, Part Two in nine days, and Part Three six days later. He worked feverishly, driven by one overwhelming purpose. Servants left meals outside his door, afraid to disturb him. Once, when a servant did find the courage to open the door, the startled composer cried out, with tears streaming down his face, ‘I think I did see all Heaven before me, and the great God Himself!’ He had just finished the much-celebrated ‘Hallelujah Chorus’.

What a comeback story—and the Bible is filled with them! The first forty-one chapters in the book of Job describe all that he had lost: his health, his wealth, and his family. Then, in the last chapter we read, ‘The Lord restored his fortunes… The Lord blessed Job in the second half of his life even more than in the beginning.’ (Job 42:10–12 NLT)

And what God did for George Frideric Handel, and for Job, He can do for you when you put your life in His hands.

Nairaland General › The Lion And The Lamb. by Btruth(op): 7:20am On Jul 20, 2020
The Lion And The Lamb

Mon, 20 Jul 2020

‘With all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love.’ Ephesians 4:2 NKJV

One day a lion met a tiger in the jungle. He grabbed the tiger’s tail and demanded, ‘Who is the king of the jungle?’ The tiger answered meekly, ‘You are, O mighty lion.’ Next the lion grabbed a monkey, asking, ‘Who do you say is the king of the jungle?’ The monkey humbly replied, ‘You, O mighty lion.’ Then the lion met an elephant and asked, ‘Who is the king of the jungle?’ The elephant grabbed him with his trunk, whirled him around and threw him up against a tree, leaving him bleeding and broken. The lion got up slowly and, licking his wounds, said to the elephant, ‘Just because you don’t know the answer is no reason for you to get so rough.’

The lesson in this story is: the greater your authority, the more gracious your attitude towards others should be. In Scripture Jesus is referred to as a lion and a lamb; He’s the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, and the Lamb of God. And in this He shows us the essence of true strength and leadership. When it comes to standing for the truth, you should roar like a lion, and when it comes to dealing with people, you should be as gentle as a lamb.

Paul spells it out clearly in this Scripture: ‘With all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love.’ Again he writes, ‘Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.’ (Colossians 3:13 NKJV)

Nairaland General › A Word To The Thin-skinned. by Btruth(op): 2:37am On Jul 19, 2020
A Word To The Thin-Skinned

Sun, 19 Jul 2020

‘God blesses those who are persecuted for doing right.’ Matthew 5:10 NLT

Jesus said: ‘God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are My followers. Be happy about it!… For a great reward awaits you in Heaven.’ (Matthew 5:11–12 NLT) If you’re thin-skinned you’ll always be an easy target. Endurance, not popularity, is the secret to long-term success. Paul endured desertion by his friends, ugly letters from the Corinthians, disappointment with the Galatians, mistreatment in Philippi, mocking in Athens, and execution in Rome.

He writes, ‘Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.’ (1 Corinthians 16:13 NASB) Let’s break this verse down:

(1) Be on the alert. The devil is out to get you. What’s he after? Your value to God’s Kingdom. Your life is a seed capable of producing a harvest for God in the earth, so protect yourself.

(2) Stand firm in the faith. You can’t stand on your circumstances or other people’s opinions, because those things constantly change. You can stand only on the Word of God.

(3) Act like men. Immaturity will hurt you when the attack comes. The Bible says you must leave ‘the elementary… press on to maturity.’ (Hebrews 6:1 NASB) If you’re still making the same mistakes twenty-five years later, you’re not learning enough.

(4) Be strong. Weakness is an invitation to the enemy. It always precedes surrender, and quitting isn’t an option. God told His people that the Promised Land was theirs, but they had to fight for it. And only those who were willing to fight got to enter it. The same goes for you.

Nairaland General › Endurance. by Btruth(op): 4:41am On Jul 18, 2020
Endurance

Sat, 18 Jul 2020

‘Who for the joy that was set before Him endured.’ Hebrews 12:2 NKJV

James writes, ‘Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown.’ (James 1:12 NIV) Are you thinking of quitting? Life is full of quitting points, but if you throw in the towel on your marriage, your career, or your dream, you may regret it for the rest of your life. Only by staying the course can God strengthen you and make you a winner.

FB Meyer says, ‘You never test the resources of God until you attempt the impossible.’ Quitting doesn’t build character, endurance does. It develops something in you that nothing else can; that’s why God calls it ‘blessed’. (James 5:11 NKJV) It sustains courage, gives staying power to discipline, and turns dreams into reality. Nobody knew more about endurance than Jesus. He endured all the way to Calvary: when they plucked the hair from His face, when the whip tore His flesh, when they nailed Him to a cross, when His friends forsook Him, when bystanders mocked Him, and when God Himself turned His face away.

The Bible says, ‘Who for the joy that was set before Him endured.’ God rewards those who diligently seek Him (see Hebrews 11:6). He promises that when you seek Him with all your heart, you’ll find Him (see Jeremiah 29:13). And those promises apply to you.

So tell God, ‘I plan to keep going, and trusting You for the strength to break through.’ When you pray that way, you’ll find your quitting point isn’t as solid as you thought.

Nairaland General › Pray For Spiritual Insight. by Btruth(op): 6:19am On Jul 17, 2020
Pray For Spiritual Insight

Fri, 17 Jul 2020

‘The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out.’ Proverbs 20:5 NIV

The people who knew Simon knew he was impulsive and tended to put his foot in his mouth. But Jesus saw something else in him; that’s why He renamed him Peter, implying he was a stone suitable for a foundation.

Can’t you imagine the look on the other disciples’ faces when Jesus said, ‘You are Peter… upon this rock I will build My church, and… hell will not conquer it’ (Matthew 16:18 NLT)? Yet Peter did indeed become a founding pillar and respected leader in the early church. And all because of Christ’s ability and willingness to look beyond the surface and see what was on the inside.

Being made in God’s likeness gives a person amazing potential, but sometimes it takes ‘a man of understanding’ to recognise it and draw it out. Too many of us see only what is on the surface. So we are quick to peg someone as arrogant, or quick-tempered, or weak, etc. But when you have spiritual insight, you see beyond all that, to the hopes and fears behind the person’s behaviour. We don’t need more self-appointed critics, we need:

(1) Parents who pray for their children, look beyond their flaws, and draw out their uniqueness.

(2) Spouses who search for the hidden treasure in their mates.

(3) Business leaders who treat their workers with respect, and match their responsibilities with their talents.

(4) Believers who forgive immature, stumbling fellow Christians and work to develop them.

(5) Soul winners who see lost people through the eyes of Jesus and recognise what His transforming power can do. So pray for spiritual insight.
