TOPIC: SECRETS TO SUCCEED IN LIFE: God's Calling And His Principles (16)
ONE YEAR BIBLE READING
Exodus 38 - 39
Matthew 27: 1 - 26
MEMORY VERSE:
Romans 8:30.
"30. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified."
Bible Reading:
Exodus 4:24-26.
"24. And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him, and sought to kill him."
"15. Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me."
"26. So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art, because of the circumcision."
Thinking Point:
God's calling doesn't cancel His principles. His calling does not replace His commandments.
This week shall be glorious for us, we shall be full of testimony by the end of this week in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
There's a need to understand that the principles of God can't be overridden or replaced by His call. God's calling doesn't exempt you from His commandments and principles. Let me put it this way, that you are a Bishop, Reverend, Apostle or Pastor doesn't change the fact that you reap Maize when you plant beans or harvest yam in the session of corn, No. God is not a respecter of person, anointing or mantle, His principles are the same and His commands never changes. This is the reason why He punishes so called 'anointed men of God' the same way He discipline young converts. That is why Apostle Peter says In Acts 10:34,
"34. Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS:
No one is above His law except He chooses to show us mercy.
When God called Moses, He expected him to circumcise his son before proceeding but He acted as if call will cover that aspect not knowing God won't take it lightly. Many of us feel God has called us, so no need to stop some disobedience act or follow some laid down principles, you are very wrong. God will not change His standard because of you and I. Moses was almost killed despite being on an assignment because His son was not circumcised. Anointing doesn't make you disrespect anyone; your member, parent, colleagues, co-worker, spouse and other persons. It doesn't make you look down or take advantage of others. Call does not exempt you from God's principles. Thank God for Zipporah who was sensitive to the happening, she quickly made a circumcision sign by touching the boy's blood with that of Moses. Yesterday, we discussed involving our spouse in our calling. This is one of the reasons, she saved her husband by performing his neglected duty, and God allowed him to be. Brethren, our calling doesn't override God's principles, honouring your spouse, your parents and training your children in the way of the Lord. Give honour to whom honour is due to, regardless of your rank because God will not behold our disobedience. His calling and principles are two parallel lines that should run concurrently.
Good Morning and God bless you.
