TAKING RESPONSIBILITY

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY
Responsibility is a trait for all leaders. We are all leaders, whether we rule over a nation or not. Our GOD himself is a responsible GOD, and expects his children to also be responsible. GOD develops interest in responsible people; because he is responsible. Responsibility is the state of being responsible and accountable. It is a duty, obligation or liability for which someone is held accountable. Every one created by GOD has purpose and reason for creation. We shall give account to GOD, based on our purpose. That is where responsibility comes in; he GOD has assigned a task and obligation into our hands that we must ensure we succeed doing it. Many are not showing responsibility toward this task. GOD delights in a responsible man, Joseph was a responsible man; no wonder GOD’s presence never left him. Responsible men take responsibility. Responsible men are always filled with GOD’s presence. Responsible men are men of authority. Responsible men rise up to the challenges ahead of them. Responsible men are solution to the world and generations unborn. Responsible men fears GOD. The bible says, Potiphar gave Joseph the complete administrative responsibility over everything he owned; because he noticed he was a responsible man. An irresponsible man would have slept with Potiphar’s wife. Joseph took responsibility for theses and ended up in the prison. Responsibility distinguishes a man, anywhere and anytime. The bible says in fact, the jailer soon handed over the entire prison administration to Joseph, so that all other prisoners were responsible to him. Taking responsibility! Are you responsible?

            The bible says in 1Peter 2 vs. 9: But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. These are the promises of GOD for a responsible man. We have to take responsibility over our family. Not all husbands are responsible and not all wives are. Husbands be responsible and wives be responsible. Taking responsibilities over your family implies you and your household will always serve GOD. We need to take responsibility over our nation and nations of the world. The Psalmist says pray for the peace of Jerusalem, they shall prosper that love you. Our Jerusalem is our country. We need to stand for our country in prayers. You need to pray for your leaders, whether they are governing well or not. You need to take responsibility by praying for them, rather than complain. Many do blame leaders in their country, it won’t solve the problems; rather take responsibility by praying. We need to pray for other nations too; not until you are in such nation. Pray for all nations, taking responsibility. If we begin to take responsibility over our families and nations in prayer and intercession, we will begin to see changes. Also we need to take responsibility on our dreams and aspirations. You can’t just relax and think your dreams will come to pass like that. Take responsibility by doing the right things to achieve them. It is well with us….

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1

TRAPPED BY YOUR OWN DESIRES 1 Everybody has a desire and some desires glorify GOD, while some do not. Desire is a strong feeling of wanting something. Many get trapped by their desires. The LORD our GOD knows our needs, desires and expectations; we are to delight ourselves in the LORD, commit our ways unto the LORD so he can give us our desires. Psalm 37 vs. 4-5: Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Many have desires that are against GOD’s will. Many have desires that will take the place of GOD. Many have desires that will lead to disobedience to GOD’s will. Paul said in 2 Corinthians 10 vs. 5: Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalt itself against the knowledge of GOD, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of CHRIST. There are imaginations and desires that will repel a man from GOD’s plan and will for his life. W...
