The Mysteries of the Plough

THE MYSTERIES OF THE PLOUGH
Thursday, January 28, 2016

“…No man, having put his hands to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62)

Wait! Before you dare put your hands on that plough you need to read this caveat! Oh, it’s okay if your hands are on the plough already, just listen carefully.

You are about to embark on a very stressful journey, soon the glamor would fade out the excitement would heave up. Soon it would appear monotonous, you would get fagged out, friends would begin to mock you. Very soon it will get really sweaty and dirty; you would literally feel irritated.

Dear zealous one, when the dust of euphoria and joy settles what would keep you going? I understand that your marriage is heaven now, but what about when Hell knocks and says, “Holla, a delivery man here!” Now ministry is glamorous what happens when the dust settles…

Maybe you still don’t get what the plough is, the plough is that Purpose you said you were going to die for. Whether you like it or not, to be successful in this life your hands must be on a plough and not just any plough; the right plough; because there is a connection between purpose and prosperity. Ps 23:5

You would have to answer this question, “what would keep me going when the dust settles?” To birth anything in this world there are travails. Focus alone is enough affliction because it robs you of the full pleasure of many other things, but you have to choose and stick your neck there.

Maybe you were told that if you do something you love there would be no travails or feelings of discouragement or disappointments or even failure, educate yourself this morning, and decide what would keep you going. You have to make a commitment and covenant with destiny not to look back.

SELAH- It’s easy and tasty to get pregnant, but why not try the delivery room

Shalom!

The Lost Cause

THE LOST CAUSE

“For this CAUSE shall a man leave his father and mother, and be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh” (Eph 5:31) (read chapter)

Overwhelming is the statistics of failed marriages manifested in the form of heated homes, adulterous homes, divorce, among others. Purpose is a compass. When the purpose of a thing is unknown, temporal survival is possible, but accident and collapse is inevitable.

Countless are the dimensions of marital frustrations, but everything boils down to a cause. Scriptures say, for this cause shall marriage happen, for what cause? Meaning there is an actual cause, or reason why marriage must happen; outside that is a voyage to frustration.

Before you answer the “Cause” question, you must understand that marriage was God’s initiative and God’s design, meaning the jurisdiction (legal survival/existence) of marriage is God. Outside God, marriage is an artificial preemption.

The singular and absolute assuredness for a successful marriage is the planting of same in God. People think that the fact they married in Church, or a church person is a guarantee for a successful marriage, I believe there are too many proofs to show the failure of church marriages.

Just like every dimension of God, there are principles and laws for the operation of marriage. Man was meant to fall in love with God as the bride of God, and then study his/her relations with Him, how he was treated/ how she submitted to God as a necessity for progress, and then act out that reality in the physical world (spouse)

Marriage was designed to live/act out God’s love to man, demonstrating it between a man and a woman. This is why we don’t marry in heaven because we (the church, the bride) will be with our husband Christ Jesus and therefore there will be no need to act the love, or act the marriage.

Marriage is evangelism, in the similitude of Jesus’ words, “I see my father work and so I work” so we say, “I see my father love and so I love”, “I see him sacrifice and so I sacrifice” The best couples are those that best portray the fathers love and the church’s (bride’s) ideal character.

This is the reason why the family is considered as part of the Seven Mountains of the World.
(Media, Entertainment, Politics, Academics, Business, religion, family) It is from this very revelation that all the Christian laws of marriage are drafted, outside this foundation is dross

Many love God but they don’t understand that marriage essence is to act a movie called “the Christ and His Bride” Your marriage is a picture of your walk with God whether you knew this before or not. Now you know the foundation, you can draft out your marital parameters.

SELAH: Do it right, know the right cause!

Shalom!

“But thou, O LORD, art a Shield for me; my Glory, and the Lifter of mine head” (Ps 3:3)

Frustration in spirituals is calculated thus- distance from God multiplied by time. A fish separated from water is death on the go. Man’s habitat is the glory, it has been so from creation.

David saw God as his Sun (glory), Shield (defender) and Uplifter, characteristics that showed David’s helplessness. Man is helpless without the creator. He was created in the image of God, meaning he can only find himself in God, he does not know himself unless he knows God.

Everything created can only survive in the glory, once taken away from the glory it dies. It doesn’t appear to die immediately because of absorbed glory, but with time it fades. This is the number one cause of decrease in mortality age/ diminished life span.

Earth is a dying place. Nature has been diminishing in quality from the fall of man. It fact it has become unbearable that some plants and animals have gone extinct, some species are endangered, in response there are all kinds of laws, interbreeding, preservation, among others.

Animals will still go extinct until glory comes. The sun is bleeding, dying very fast. The order of creation keeps collapsing. Animals once submitted to man because of the Glory of God around man, when they saw man, they saw God. Until they see that glory, they won’t submit. (But by Jesus, we are changed if we believe)

The entire creation mourns the absence of the glory. It is high time we understood that man is only an apple plucked from God. Moses understood this and he sought the glory with his life, crying to God for his presence and glory.

The ripple effect of this is seen in Deut 34:7, Moses attained a realm called immortality. Immortality in one sense is a degree of absorbed glory. This is an apostolic call to the place of intimacy with God, until he revives us again.

SELAH: You never came to life until God breathe into you, how dare you think you can survive without his breath (His Spirit, His Life)?

Shalom!
