What spirit is in You!

What spirit is in you?

Exodus 33:11 KJV

And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

There's a serious burden to talk to young ministers most especially in the Nigerian church. Pls don't seek to know everything. Seek to Know God. I know the tendency to feel inadequate or insufficient arises anytime you see or hear someone perform at a level you have not accessed and you want to find out why the disparity. Not just because you are hungry to grow in your knowledge of God but so that you can also steal the stage.  Your desire is correct but your motive has been corrupted. And with this corrupted motive, God can never place anything eternal on you. Fame is a generational killer! Flee from it. I see young ministers in our time, who all they do when a message is going on is just to access a preachers message to confirm whether it's approved or not. You are not called to approve preachers and God's servants. That is the work of the Holyspirit. Your only disposition is to sit and learn and grow and generate capacity.

It is appalling and frightening that the humility to learn and appreciate authority and different Graces is fast disappearing in our time amongst young preachers. They are quick to call "Papa" not because the spirit of humility is at work in them, but a hidden disdain that echoes within their faculty saying "what is the big deal with him, me I'm also big in my circle". That a man of God is your friend or relates with you does not mean  it's a privilege for you to rub shoulders with him or assume you are in the same league with him. If true revival must come, this corrupted spirit of seeking to be greater than others must give way to seeking to be known of him and to be accepted in the sight of the immortals.

  

The investment of capacity is not giving to a man because of his cerebral prowess or research capacity, it is given based on the much of God you have been able to draw to you. Are you only interested to replicate what a man is doing just for a mere cheap attention and audience to you? Most audible people and great orators we see around are just product of research and not encounter. Pls note that the audience you gather today by gimmicks will leave when the authority to keep them is not available. Seek capacity with God. Seek to know him for yourself!

Young minister, check your diary? The message you jotted some years ago or presently, is it to repreach another man's message and sound relevant to the people rather than avenues for God to draw lines upon lines upon your heart and initiate you into his mode. May we not end up preaching this gospel and be a castaways in the end. 

As anointed as Samuel was and through whom the God Isreal was  known and that domiciled in RAMAH, he went to the grave with his mantle because his sons weren't in alignment. God forbid that the numerous God's servants he has raised to the body of Christ today who has been immense blessing will go to the grave with their mantles. 

Numbers 27:18 KJV

And the Lord said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;

Exodus33:11 above will naturally birth Numbers 27:18. It's not magic. You can't duplicate it. It's a formula from Zion. From the textbook of Patriarchs and holy witnesses. We can see the stipulated ascendancy as shown in both verses.......From Joshua "the young man in the previous verse to Joshua "the man" .....This is kingdom process. 

The great one gave witness to Moses regarding Joshua. He was a man in whom is the spirit. A spirit that the immortals can invest in. That it's only desire is to see Israel not be scattered as sheep without shepherd. A spirit that will not question Moses to steal his stage unlike Aaron and Miriam. A true leader whose only intention is to make the king of Kings known.

The question now is what spirit is in you?

Let us pray!
