OBSERVE THE RIGHT THINGS

When God puts you around a leader, choose to observe the right things. Many times when a successful person dies, the children can’t manage his success. Many things the father built start to depreciate as the businesses don’t run as before. It could be the fault of the man himself because most of the time, having faced the suffering and struggles of a pioneer, he says “I don’t want my children to suffer as I suffered”. Therefore, he brings the spirit of softness into their lives.

Today, many are associating with men of God to carry their briefcases; they don’t want to carry their spirit. They want to know their tailor; they don’t want to know their fasting and prayer schedule. They want what is in their pockets; they don’t want what is in their hearts.

Paul explained that there are four steps before the ‘doing’ part in the kingdom. In Philippians 4:9, we see that the crux of this matter is in two words - “IN ME”. “In me” tells us that there must be a visible person with whom you are taking those first four steps. Notice that when you get to the level of ‘do-ing’, it has nothing to do with “in me”. But the first four steps are connected to a visible leader, “in me”, i.e., the things that you have learnt, received, heard and seen in me, do on your own.

PRAYER: Father, help me to follow through - to learn, receive, hear, and observe from my visible leader(s), before doing in Jesus’ Name. Amen!
