As believers, there are some “if”
statements in the word of God that guides us to our journey or on our journey. I
was playing candy crush one day, I saw this: your target is 10,000, but the
main instruction, I didn’t read, it says, get 10,000 in 90sec. I was playing
the game and was so calm with it and all of a sudden I saw, game over give up,
surprisingly I asked my friend what that means because I just started the game
and have not met the target. She asked me if I read the instruction before playing,
I said no, and she said , they would have told you from the beginning what to
get and in what time to get it.
In the journey called life, at
every point in every ramification, there is instruction on “how to use”. We can
as well liking instruction to direction- go to that tree and you will see the
mango, the instruction here is to go to a tree before you can see a mango.
Many have in life travelled on
the wrong path because they failed to follow instructions. To every
instruction, there is always a reward and that reward is what you get after
following the instruction. Following instruction is not been religious, I see
it as trusting the one who knows the way/path you have no idea where it leads.
Back in high school, I took part
in a race, if I still remember, I was on the 3rd or 2nd
lane and there was this girl on the first lane, the race started, people that
will fall did and people that will rise again did as well, the focus of this
story is on the girl on the 1st lane, she was taking the first
position and I was taking the 2nd, people were hailing her until we
got to the final point and they announced me as the winning, people started
shouting and asking why such a thing will happen when it’s so glaring who the
winner was, then the man in charged said she(on the 1st lane) did not follow the instruction, the
instruction was to each run on your lane but she already left hers and she was
running in the middle of the field.
Same applies to a believer’s
journey, many of us have left our lane and we’ve started running on other
people’s lane. What exactly has God called you to do, how exactly did He ask
you to do it, who is your standard, man or God?. We’ve so much conform to the standard
of this world that anything the world says seem to us as the right path/choice.
I am a product, you are another
but from the same manufacturer, the “readme,txt” file attached to you as a
product differs from mine. Take a deep step in reading your own “readme” file
and stop reading others’. This is how Pastor James does it, I must do it the
same way, who told you that?
If you want to eat the best of
the land, you have to go back to your producer and ask for the instructions
that come along with your destiny. We can all be singers, but your own line of
singing may differ from ours. God knows what He is doing, He created everything
for His own pleasure.
If you can’t start celebrating
your difference and living it out now, you can’t really go far, that difference
is what makes you YOU, that’s your “readme.txt” file. It came with you when you
were born and remember the bible says, before you were formed in your mother’s
womb, He knows you, definitely you are a finished work of a perfect creator and
because your thinking and ways are far from His, He has packaged some instruction
along with your life so you will know how to take one step at a time.
I am very sure no one wants to be
tossed around by the wave of this world and different doctrine. Then you’ve got
to stand for the unique you and live the exact person God created. The world is
like this because many of us still live other people’s life and forsake ours,
that’s why you notice little or no change in how people live their life, there
is already a pattern people conform to.
No instruction can match you, as that, that came with you. Stop the
mismatch.
