Checking into God's Presence... It is almost real that praise makes good men perform better in their services to humanity. Men can always be appointed and or anointed to occupy plum and lucrative positions in society or any house of God. Arguably, the same praise and honour accorded and or bestowed on any man have seen many of them display below par in their duties and attributes. In the story of creation, Lucifer occupied a very prominent position in heaven. He was the morning star; but in Isaiah 14:12-14, the prophet Isaiah described how Satan's fell from grace to grass. His bid was to ascend above the clouds' heights and offer himself to be like the Most High God. “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weakens the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven; I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will also sit upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High." In retrospect, God may have appointed you as His vessel; prophet, Shepherd, Pastor and behold: He claimed to have given us "power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and overall the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you". Luke 10:19 But does that equate us with God? Equally, you may have been assigned, appointed or anointed into a prominent position in the society of the household of a God. Beyond that, what has become of your status? A measure up with your leader? What freedom do you now enjoy? Could it be such that builds or destroys? Remember, God doesn't love us because of who we are. God loves us pretty much because of who He is, and nothing can change that. We must humble ourselves and stop playing "God" in any position we may likely find ourselves. Our Father who art in heaven; hallowed be Thy name; we plead through Your love for humanity to give us the spirit that will remove pride, arrogance, hatred and jealousy away from us. Instead, infuse in our humility, passion and the enthusiasm to fear You in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence…
