Worthy

Book-of-matt

 Then the king said to his aides, ‘Bind his hands and feet and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
 “For many are called, but few are chosen.”
(Matt.22:13-14)

Please read Matthew 22. If you are like me, you would agree that the king’s sentence is rather harsh, right? When I read this, I wrestled with it. What has he done to deserve being cast into outer darkness, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth? And then it occurred to me that being called is a function of favour but being chosen is a function of being worthy. Many are called but few are chosen. I pray that you will be part of the chosen and that you will be worthy in Jesus Name.

It is not enough to be called. Are you worthy? When you are worthy, the things of God will prosper in your hands. When you are worthy, you are able to lay hold of your destiny. When you are worthy, you are the pride and joy of your Father. Elisha was worthy. He served Elijah and he got the mantle of Elijah. When he came to Jordan [a difficult place], he smote Jordan calling on the Lord God of Elijah and Jordan parted. Elisha was worthy. Gehazi served Elisha. Elisha had double of what Elijah had and this was the mantle he gave Gehazi but the mantle did not work in Gehazi’s hands. When Gehazi called on the Lord God of Elisha, nothing happened because Gehazi was not worthy. There was nothing wrong with the mantle; there was everything wrong with the person. The problem is worthiness!

God wants you to be worthy. Are you worthy of your desired next level? I pray that you will be worthy and that you will pay the price for it, in Jesus Name.

Ladies, before you marry that man, ask yourself one question - is he worthy? To help you, I suggest you stand in front of the mirror and take a good look at yourself from head to toe. Then ask yourself, is this man worthy of this package? If he is not worthy, do not marry him. If you do, it would be like casting your pearls before swine. Remember that you are going to submit to that man for the rest of your life. He is going to call the shots for the rest of your lives together. So you better make sure that he is worthy before you say yes.  The same thing goes for the men; you better make sure that lady is worthy of the vision you are carrying. It is so important.


Prayer: Father, I pray that when You check, I will be found worthy, in Jesus Name. Amen!

His Channels

Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...
