How to Pursue a Purposeful life 3 (Becoming hopeful in this dark world)
What a blissful day.
Loved ones in Christ Jesus I hope you are enjoying the peace and the joy of the Holy
Spirit. Glory to the King of kings and Lord of Lords we are moving in strength,
favour, mercy and wisdom. We have learned a lot from the previous lessons. If you have
not read the previous lessons, kindly read them.
In this episode, I will
share with you three wisdom keys on how to pursue a purposeful life. I believe
these wisdom keys will help you become hopeful because I live in a country
where most of the leaders do not want to use the resources to develop the
nation. The country I live in is not all that conducive for creativity.
With God on our side, we
are victorious. Some people are privileged to live in communities and countries
where development is rapidly taking place. Those of us in Africa and other parts of the world have to press
through before we can do certain things in life. If I live in a country where it is not all that conducive to becoming successful, why should you
excuse yourself and become hopeless?
Understand that the keys
I am sharing with you works for me. If these keys work for me, it will also
work for you if you apply them. I have many reasons to become unsuccessful, but
I have broken those limitations through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Child of God, you have no excuse to become successful if you are reading my
books and articles.
People have a different
way of defining success. I define success as identifying your purpose and
fulfilling it to its maximum. If you can search out for your divine purpose,
the problems around your community and the potentials within you, you have
unlocked the first gate to your success. Below are some keys to help you find a
purposeful life.
8.
The Key of Godliness.
For bodily exercise profiteth little: but GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE UNTO ALL
THINGS, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to
come.
(1 Timothy
4:8
KJV).
One
weapon the enemy uses against people is sin consciousness. When you willfully and
consistently sin, it makes you unproductive in your field. Sin consciousness
limits your creativity and productivity. Sin produces sickness, war, confusion,
jealousy, and all forms of distraction. Anytime you willfully sin, you open the
door for evil spirits to torment your life. Do you know why many people are
hopeless in the street?
Many people are struggling in the street because of sin. The enemy imposes curses
on people when they willfully and consistently sin. If you want to pursue a
purposeful life, learn to live in a godly life. I have realized that one of the
most common sins the enemy uses to trap the destiny of people is through sexual
sin. Apostle Paul commanded the church in Thessalonica, Corinth and other
churches to abstain from fornication because it brings the anger of God (See 1 Thessalonians 4:13, 1 Corinthians
6:9-11).
In
my book “The Mysteries of Sexual Purity.” I have enumerated ninety deadly dangers behind
sexual sin, seventy mysteries behind sexual purity, thirty-two portals that leads to sexual sin and forty keys to help you activate sexual purity. Get the book for a more
profound revelation. Godliness without faith is useless because sometimes
people may judge you wrongly. God checks the motives behind our actions. If you
want to please all men because of godliness, then you cannot go far.
The
reason I am saying this is that Jesus Christ who never sinned even had
enemies. No matter the level of your godliness, people will find negative comments
about you. Desire to please God and He will lift you up. Meditate in this
scripture for more revelation.
The secret of the LORD is with them
that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
(Psalm 25:14 KJV).
9.
Act on your Faith.
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
(Philippians
4:13
KJV).
Faith
is one best spiritual weapon you can use to enable you to become the person God
made you. Get my book “How to Unlock the Gates of Faith” for a more profound revelation. If you don’t have
faith in the promises of God and in your heart, you cannot go far. Let this
mindset be in you. “I can do all things
through Christ who strengthens me.” If someone has done it, you can
also do it. Don’t limit yourself. You can make it! Break the spirit of
inferiority. Get my book “How to Break the spirit of Inferiority” for a more profound revelation.
Build
your spirit and transform your mind with the Word of God.
Build a consistent prayer life to enable you to become courageous in the Spirit
and in the earthly realm. Pray in the Spirit to enable you to break the
limitation of the enemy. Never look down on yourself. Don’t look at the
condition of your family background, your community, your educational level,
and connections. See the greatness of God because He is the ultimate supplier.
He can open great doors for you and touch the people’s hearts to support you. Meditate on this scripture for more revelation.
The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD , as the
rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
(Proverbs 21:1 KJV).
10.
Think about Heavenly Blessings.
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not
worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
(Romans 8:18 KJV).
The next key to helping
you become hopeful in this dark world is to think about the glory in the
Heavenly Places. Imagine in your heart sitting together with the King of Kings
and Lord of Lords in His sanctuary. How would you feel when an important person
invites you to come to have dinner or a short talk?
Let your consciousness be
on the things above. If you only concentrate on earthly things, you will be carnal, greedy, and unsatisfied. Build your heavenly mansions through soul
winning, intercession, offertory, tithes, worship and praises from the heart,
sowing seeds into ministries and helping the poor. Meditate on this scripture.
He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his
eyes shall have many a curse.
(Proverbs 28:27 KJV).
Remember our heavenly
blessings are permanent. No one can steal them from us because they are sealed
by God Almighty and protected by Archangels. There is no end in this glorious
and joyful kingdom. You can command every meal you love to enjoy. Do you know
that the angels eat? Remember, God fed the Israelites with manna (angels’
food). Read for yourself.
And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had
given them of the corn of heaven.
MAN DID EAT ANGELS' FOOD:
he sent them meat to the full.
(Psalm 78:24-25 KJV).
If angels eat, then it
means we will eat and drink. Don’t forget about the great supper in Heaven.
Read for yourself.
And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried
with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven,
Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of
captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them
that sit on them, and the flesh of all men,
both free and bond, both small and great.
(Revelation
19:17-18-19
KJV).
Heaven
will be a place of enjoyment. Think about heaven and become hopeful!
I
will continue in episode four.
Shalom.
