SCRIPTURES FOR THOUGHT
*Romans 11:19-20*
Rom.11.20 - That is true. But they were broken (pruned) off because of their unbelief (their lack of real faith), and you are established through faith [because you do believe]. So do not become proud and conceited, but rather stand in awe and be reverently afraid.
Rom.11.21 - For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.
*God Has Substitutes.*
In this kingdom,there is no _"time to check time."_ I mean,there nothing like Vacant space,because there's always someone to replace you when you are called home,backslide,or even slack in the business of God.
Sometimes ago,I was in a tight situation,I was so down and discouraged,due to some issues had then.Then,Holy Spirit spoke and He said,_"Won't you give my people dinner tonight?"_ (He was speaking about *Scriptures for Thought*).Immediately,my mind was no longer at ease,because beyond that question,I knew If I didn't take action and He keeps telling me about it and I refuse to yield,he's already preparing someone to take over.
*One thing you do not know about toying with God's business is that,the more He keeps warning you and you do not take steps,the faster he's preparing another person to take over.* You will just be surprised the nudging is just gonna stop and boom!you've been brushed aside.
If you read carefully about Jesus' Parable in the New testament,The Book of Matthew to be precise,you will notice how He detests laziness and laxity in God's business.And what is God's business? Winning of Souls,reaching souls via diverse gifts and mediums he has given you.
I want to tell you the gospel truth tonight,the more you mind God's business,the more Satan attacks you and torments,just to weaken you...That's all! However,the ability to stay strong and continue is what brings greater glory and reward.I tell you,the durability of Christianity is tested when you are passing through fire.
When all is rosy, it is easy to serve God,you are filled and comfortable.But, when you are in discomfort,and you still stands,then we can say you really love God.
Brethen,whatever God has committed in your hands no matter how big or small,just have it at the back of your mind that,He has given the same power and gift or even a better version to another.Although,it will remain dormant in the other person until you,who had received it first begin to take it with levity.
As for me,I'm scared and I pray not to be replaced.This is not about people getting blessed alone by articles,but the glorious moment I do have with the Holy Spirit,the deep revelations I receive and the strengthening of the bond between myself and Him.
Don't make a mistake of proving _"Daddy's girl/boy"_ in this kingdom,thinking God can't replace you even if you stop doing it.He only cherish those who are constantly in touch with him and for him.Gird your loins,the journey hasn't ended,keep going and God will uphold you.
