##NATURE LIKE A TEACHER
Good day all my friends in this great community. I am excited to be here.
This is my first post and l will be doing introduction of myself.
I am Kenechi with username brightpromise at Steemit. I am a Christian, student in the University and a Nigerian.
I will like us to look at this write up together nature like a teacher:
Proverbs 30:15-33.
There are 4 Keys for Subduing the Earth and to enthrone Jesus.
- Dissatisfaction. verses 15-16 we ought to be dissatisfied until the entire earth acknowledges JESUS as Lord. Why are we satisfied with mercy drops of exploits. We ought to be quick in forgetting the past and pressing on for abundance. The enemy's camp is never satisfied. Beloved what has brought premature satisfaction to your spirit man that you have become this cold and ineffective in this kingdom business of making Disciples.
Even prostitutes are never satisfied see verse 20 but when we preach to one person or win one soul we go back and relax for one week, what a terrible weakness?
Note that verse 17; if the church fails to listen to God's warning then enemies will deal with us. If a child refuses his parents goldly input utter destruction awaits such a child.
- Wonder. verses 18-19
The kingdom of darkness did not understand God's strategy in bringing Christ. If they had known they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. The church has no surprise today, everything is on the news. Nothing is a wonder to the enemy's camp. God is a God of wonder, so ought His body to be. But the enemy's camp they plan in secret and we only see the effect.
The only wonder we have is that of secret sin and public pretense as though nothing is wrong with us meanwhile decay is in our bossom.
Aggressiveness. verses 21-23*
Revival fire comes along with aggressiveness. It seems we do not have a good understanding of what the enemy is doing. Compare with 1 Sam 30:4-10. We are busy with celebrations when the people God created for His glory have been captured by sin, worldliness, the flesh and satan and they are trooping into hopeless eternity on daily basis occasioned by increase in death rate. The enemy's camp, they are very aggressive in their fight to take over everything. We have not received the Spirit of timidity again to fear but of sound mind and boldness to cry out Abba Father. Note the kingdom of heaven suffers violence...Wisdom. verses 24-28
So much wisdom is required if the church will penetrate everywhere and bring impact. How did Esther penetrate and become Queen and saved the jews, that is the manner of wisdom. Wise as serpents, harmless as dove yet focused to enthrone Jesus as Lord. One slave girl in Naaman's house did the whole job. In the other camp they have penetrated so much. They are our gate men, they come in to shine or repair your shoes etc they are everywhere, waiting to be commanded for action.
Dear Father, fill us with: Dissatisfaction for mercy drops,Grace for wonderful things, passion for Aggressive and Relentless disciple making and the wisdom to penetrate everywhere not for our pocket or stomach but to enthrone Jesus as Lord Amen.
Thank you very much for your time. I wish someone is encouraged to keep watching and laboring until our Lord and Master’s return.
