Check your status (2)

Check Your Status part

In continuation from the above topic “Check Your Status”; I strongly believed you are being blessed from the previous one. I pray for you that the power of the most high God will locate and find you wherever you have missed it in Jesus Name.

I begin from Vs² of our text: “She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears are [constantly] on her cheeks. Among all her lovers (allies) she has no one to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; they have become her enemies”. Vs³ “Judah has gone into exile [to escape] from the affliction and laborious servitude [of the homeland]. She dwells among [heathen] nations, but she finds no rest; all her persecutors overtook her amid the [dire] straits [of her distress]. Vs⁵ “Her adversaries have become the head; her enemies prosper. For the Lord has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions; her young children have gone into captivity before the enemy”. Vs⁶ “From the daughter of Zion all her beauty and majesty have departed. Her princes have become like harts that find no pasture; they have fled without strength before the pursuer”. Vs¹⁰ “The adversary has spread out his hand upon all her precious and desirable things; for she was seen the nations enter her sanctuary [of the temple] – when you commanded that they should not even enter Your congregation [in the outer courts]”.

Checking your status is something vital that God implore every individual to always think of; Check whether you are still in faith or not. Once was the situation of the world are somehow qualms and terrible, but when Jesus came to the world He shaped the situation of the world to the sweetness of God – giving us the privilege of son ship. Instead of enjoining and dwelling in that privilege; we prefer to enjoin the lustfulness and the affairs of the world through disobeying the reproof and the instruction and the lay down principle of God to content with our own dreadful laws and customs.

How can it be possible a day for someone to think otherwise about giving doctrine and authority on gay marriage or any form of lesbianism, and things that seems ill manner etc. {Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. And charged the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like a corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies within themselves:  Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served creature more than the creator, who is blessed forever. For this cause God gave them up to a vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was met. And even as they did not retain the knowledge of God in their heart, God gave them over reprobate mind, to do things which are not convenient}.  

Checking your status simplify whether you are still on the path of God or the Mammon; because no one can serve two masters either he will love  one and hate the other, or hold unto one and despise the other: we cannot serve God and Mammon. Are you retaining God in your knowledge or the devil? Is God the central gravity of your life, business, ministry, career and others?

What are you doing at the moment is it what God intend or implore you to do? Anything you are doing or live you are living that does not glorify the name of the Lord, one needs to check it out. Whosoever that thinketh he standeth take heed; lest he fall. Nothing good can ever be achieved besides checking your status: for instance, a business that has been experiencing improvement for the past two years and suddenly instead of progress - it experience recession {withdrawn}. If the boss or the chief executive officer of such business knows what he or she is doing, we need to call for meetings on what is on ground making the business to drain down; otherwise the business will totally be down forever.

This also applicable to our very lives we are living “For there is hope for a tree if it is cut down, that it will sprout again and that tender shoots of it will not cease [But there is no such hope for man.] Though its roots grow old in the earth and its stock dies in the ground, yet through the scent [and breathing] of water [the stump of the tree] will bud and bring forth boughs like a young plant. But [the brave, strong] man must die and lie prostrate; yes, man breathes his last, and where is he? If a man dies, shall he live again? All the days of my warfare and service I will wait, till my change and release shall come”. No matter the situation of your life or the circumstances you are facing at the moment or any form of sickness, calamity, tragedy, failure, disappointment, disaster or lack etc. All these is just giving you the clue to think back from where you are coming from and to know what has caused all these catastrophe you are battling with and to know the solution that overcome them all.    

Vs² “She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears are [constantly] on her cheeks. Among all her lovers (allies) she has no one to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; they have become her enemies”. Weeping or yelling cannot solve the problem, rather to check one’s life in order to know what brought about the situation of things facing you either academically, politically, mentally, ministerial, economically, or financially and seeking for every possibility to get rid of them. Vs³ “Judah has gone into exile [to escape] from the affliction and laborious servitude [of the homeland]. She dwells among [heathen] nations, but she finds no rest; all her persecutors overtook her amid the [dire] straits [of her distress]. Vs⁵ “Her adversaries have become the head; her enemies prosper. For the Lord has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions; her young children have gone into captivity before the enemy”. It might be the Sin you are committed deliberately or non – deliberately that is causing the problem you are facing at hand; because whosoever is committed sin is of the devil for them that are born of God sinneth not. Because I have called and you have refused [to answer], have stretched out my hand and no man has heeded it, and you treated as nothing all my counsel and would accept none of my reproof. Check your life whether God has been calling you once, twice but you perceiveth it not, for the curse and the fury of God upon man’s kind is dangerous because who is the man to defend or prove your case before God. Vs¹⁰ “The adversary has spread out his hand upon all her precious and desirable things; for she was seen the nations enter her sanctuary [of the temple] – when you commanded that they should not even enter your congregation [in the outer courts]”.

 Provided you will turn (repent) and give heed to my reproof, behold, I [wisdom] will pour out my spirit upon you, I will make my words known to you. God is ready to deliver you from all the problem and worries that has been troubling you all this while, in case you can acknowledge that you are a sinner before God that you are the cause of what you are facing; I bet it with you God is not reluctant any more to deliver you so that all the precious things that the enemies have stretched forth their hand unto whether in your academic, business, or ramification of live, God is ready to retrieve and return them back to you in fords.

I pray that the most high God will minister to you immensely than all what have been saying since… stay blessed… to be continued later…
