THE
WAY FORWARD…
JESUS
IS THE ONLY WAY THAT LEADS YOU TO FINDING THE REAL SELF.
-
You
need a personal Encounter with God.
Personal Encounter with
God is any situation or any scripture from the bible that gives you a clear
understand about who you really are according to God’s plan. This clear
understanding is new and fresh. It’s different from what you use to know before
the Encounter.
-
You
need a personal relationship with God base on your Encounter with him.
This is the platform of
you listening and talking or you talking and listening. It’s the platform of
you using what you have learnt and understood from your Encounter as a platform
for a conversation with God. This is the platform of Matthew 7:7 – 8; a place
of you asking, seeking and knocking for God to reveal to you who he has created
you to be. This is your right and the Holy Spirit is at your service to see to
it that you know and understand whatsoever you ask, seek and knock for in line
of your divine purpose.
-
You
need to study your bible in line with your Encounter with God.
You must study your
bible with the understanding of what you have discovered from your Encounter
with God. You study your bible with an aim and a desire to know, and understand
who you really are according to God’s plan. You don’t study your bible for God
to bless you or for warfare against the devil. No! When you discover your self,
and walk in the understanding of your self discovered – the devil will submit
and blessings will be running after you. First thing first – FIND YOURSELF. Seek first the kingdom
of God (Your purpose) and his righteousness (His principle) and every other
thing will be added to you.
-
You
need the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is your
helper, comforter, tutor… His duty is to lead and teach you all truths relating
to your divine purpose here on earth. He is your teammate. You must understand
that there is some thing written concerning your life. You had consciously written
down the details, specifications and patterns concerning your life (before you
were formed into your mother’s womb). Your
purpose is not some thing far away you must search. Your purpose is not in any
Church or in the hand of any man of God. Your purpose is already in you
- you need the Holy Spirit to help you discover that purpose dwelling in you.
-
You
need a mentor according to your personal Encounter with God.
You need a mentor that
has the Grace of God in line with what God has revealed to you about you. It
must be a man or woman of God that will nurture you into maturity according to
what God has kept in your life. He is not meant to turn you into who He wants
you to become, but he is meant to help you become what God has revealed to you.
He or she has limitations. He or she is expected to lord over you or dominate
you. A mentor is meant to inspire you into how you can accept responsibility
and accountability to God, your self and he or her self.
-
You
need teammates or tribe mate
This is the function of
like minds of people like you who have understanding about what God is showing
you. These are the set of people that think in the same pattern of the revelation
God is reveling to you. You need to surround your self with people whose spirit
bears witness to the revelation of God’s word in you. You need people around
you, who can speak your language (your purpose discovered); People who will
always see your purpose discovery and fulfillment as an answer to their own
prayer. They are people who can build you according to what God is revealing to
you. They are people you can build according to the plan and purpose for their
lives. I call them ‘Purpose Mate.’
