LET GOD BE MAGNIFIED III

The worst people to pastor are the one-talent people. Jesus said “my sheep hear my voice and they follow me”. One talent people are self willed, they cannot obey simple instructions that is meant to bless them. The one talent man in the Bible went to hide the talent that was given to him instead of investing it wisely (Matt. 25:14-30).

Successful people keep on being successful, the rich keep on getting richer because they do certain things that have become part of their nature that people who are less successful don’t do. They are disciplined, they are not stubborn. It is difficult to pastor a stubborn person. Even the Holy Spirit cannot teach a stubborn person. He will not waste time with such a person. Jesus did not spend time with some people when he was here. He devoted his time to those who ministered to him and those who accepted his ministry.

The lion theology is doing a lot of terrible damage; Jesus did not preach it and it is not the nature of Jesus. The blood of lion does not have any redemptive value. Receive the trampling anointing to crush every lion. In order to do this successfully, you should learn to dwell in the secret place of the most high. If you are still holding on to any of the lower things of this world, there is no how the lion will not be over your head. One very important prayer I pray regularly is – Father, do not allow anything that should be under my feet to be over my head.

Pray –

• Father, make it impossible for anything that should be under my feet to be over my head in the name of Jesus Christ.

Ensure that you stand right after praying this prayer. Truth does not change because of your transactions. You must be careful. It is so easy to enthrone what should be under your feet. The moment you bow, that’s it! Don’t take a decision that will lead to regret eventually. Ensure that you do not drink the wine of “success” that will take you outside the purpose of God. That wine is poison. It is all about worship. Worship is placement of value and that is why you need to be careful.

“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” 

Matthew 6:24, KJV

Jesus stated this categorically, you cannot serve God and mammon. May you not surrender where God has given you authority in the name of Jesus. Authority is useless unless it is enforced.
