Certain things in life don’t just happen and proper study of the bible reveals that God will not just handle anything to just anybody either on the basis of love, Grace or Christianity. Gen 13:14-15 “Look as far as you can see in every direction – north and south, east and west. I am giving all this land as far as you can see, to you and your descendant as a permanent possession” (NLT). Although God loved father Abraham and called him a friend and he really wanted to bless him with all he had, but God can not do that unless father Abraham SEE all that he could have and all that he is entitle to, not most he just see he must he most SEE IN ALL DIRECTIONand HE MUST ALSO SEE FAR.
Many of the Christians these days have one major problem: The ability to see. Well I am not saying that some are blind but we know that it is a whole different thing for you to look and a whole bunch of difference for you to actually see. A large proportion of the Christians only look on the outward but just few can SEE from the inside, and this why satan will always put some where they ought not to be.
Gen 13:14-15 has some sentences or phrases that I appreciate we look into:
“Look as far as you can see”: As a Christian how far are you SEEING, do you see yourself only the way people see you or you see yourself the way God sees you? Do you look at yourself in your country economic mirror and you say to yourself you can never make it or get to the top? Many are of the believe if only I am from the family on the other side things will have been better, if only there have gotten better education and a better job things will have been better. These are fine but there not the ultimate not even the yard stick to success. What then is the yardstick to success? It is in your ability to SEE yourself inwardly in order to see your outward position.
Often times have heard people say all man are equal but some are more equal than the other, well to some extent it is true but from the bible view of it is WRONG.
Gen 1:27 says “God created man in his own image” therefore no one was created more superior than the other, but some only see more than the other.
HEY! Pals got to stop here for now, think about all we have discussed and we will definitely continue from here next time we meet.
STAY UNDER HIS SHADOW.
