JOHN 4:34
Everything you do in churhc is part of your training process.
The training is that you may be part of the employment of God.
There are three things that happens in church:
Salvation
Cultivation-
Productivity -employment
The future of a man stops where his training stops. The moment you got born again, you are subject to two things: what the word will do in you and what prayer will do in you. Church is God’s training house. It is training that sanctifies you. You are trained to know, trained to be (practice) and trained to do (assignments). A man’s future is locked up in his past, he must be trained out of his past for him to have a different future. Nothing will make your tomorrow different from your yesterday if you are not trained away from it.
- Your future stops where your training stops.
- The brightness of your glory is a function of your work.
Your work is a function of what God is going to employ you to do. The kingdom has employment for Christians. When you do not know there is an employment for you, you will take your training carelessly. There is a work waiting anditis in the training youarebeing taken through now, your response to the training is what will determine your employability by God. Be available for the road that God wants to use to prepare you for the future that God wants you to have, the future God has for you is work, there is a program, plan, provisions and power for the work. The reason for your training now is that work. It is now that you are telling God if you are qualified for the work or not. That work, you do not know but in it is your glory. A reason for the training is a cleanup from the wrong wisdom, nature and wrong influences.
The future of a man is locked up in the instructions of God for him today. Deuteronomy 32:9-11, after God finds you, the next thing is to instruct you. In the strength of instruction, protection comes, provision comes, and cultivation comes.
The strength and treasures of your life lies in the instruction of God for your life. The essence of training is that the eaglet may become an eagle. The glory ofyour life is in the work you do on account of the training you received. The training is on account oftheday by day training that you receive in church. To play with it is to play with your future.A man fails to find his future because he fails to find his training. The life of a believer is the life of instructions.
To every believer’s life, there are three categories of instructions:
- The general instructions: repentance from sins, reading the bible, living righteously, pray etc. Keeping them makes you a strong christian.
