LEVEL UP

‎Those who accuse good people falsely are sure to loose out at the end like Satan their master. They have a trait like their master, walking aimlessly up and down without any good vision but a bad mission – which is to gossip, pull people down, backstab, frame people up etc.

‎The scripture implores us as Believers, to shun evil and align with our God given assignments, but the question is, are we aware of our mission at all? If we are, is it a good or bad mission we are running with? If it is good, are we running with it? And are we in alignment with it? Because running with it doesn’t mean one is in alignment. Many Christians relax after Salvation, thinking the race is to be ‘carried out’ by God the Father, Jesus Christ plus the Holy Spirit…………news flash! You and I are the ones running the race and this race is not for the faint hearted. We are the ones building up our muscles (spirit man)in the place of prayer, faith, trust and hope in God, fasting, study and meditation of the Word of God etc and no muscle building is easy. The flesh is the greatest enemy of our spirit man (for those who are led by the Spirit of God are called the sons of God – Roms 8 vs 14) , so we need to build up our spirit man as sons of God. Referencing Job in chapter 2, the accuser gunned for his flesh and yet despite the pain he stayed committed to God…….his words from vs 10……. What? Shall we accept [only] good at the hand of God and shall we not accept [also] misfortune and what is of a bad nature? 

‎The scripture encourages us to prioritize eternal spiritual standing over temporal physical safety. As Job demonstrated a very high level of spiritual maturity and intelligence, believers are also beseeched to attain a very high level of spiritual maturity and intelligence through faith in Jesus.

‎I remember when I used to go back and forth as a Christian especially when life throws it’s shades at me, I’ll be consistent in my study of the Word with God for some days and go on sabbatical for other days – I was like a pink-punk ball. Until I discovered I was going round in circles, nothing significant was really archived, yet time was passing by quietly.

Brethren, until we get to the point of LOVING God and being committed to a CONSISTENT walk with HIM no matter what life throws at us, we are still Carnal and we need to level up.
