New Environment
New Environment
The environment we live in is the key to life. The fishes surrounding is in the water. The plants nature is in the soil. The man's environment is to be in God's presence. If we do not have the right atmosphere, we will self-destruct automatically. Take the fish out of the water, it will die. Take the plant out of its soil, it will wither. Take the man out of God's presence, the man will malfunction, breakdown, and fails. Our identity, source, purpose, and destiny are attached to God. We have to seriously decide what environment we choose to be in. The great thing about what is why (purpose). Without purpose, what is meaningless? People know what they have, but do not know why they have it. Why always give what fulfillment. (Dr. Myles Munroe) So, when my nephew plays piano in a way it sounds professional, smooth, pleasant, and inspiring to the hearers, he is giving what he is doing fulfillment because he knows his purpose, he's a pianist.
How we design our environment will determine why we are the way we are? For instance, an automobile's purpose is to run on pavements, and not on the water. It is the way (design) it is because of why (purpose) it is.
This brings us to the announcement that Jesus declared in the Bible that the "Kingdom of Heaven" (new government) is at hand or near. (Matthew 4:17 NKJV)
In Isaiah 9:6-7 (NKJV) says, "For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice. From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”
Also, In John 3:16-17, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”
The Lord is not talking about the earth, He is talking about the world we live in. Jesus is salvaging the world through the Kingdom of God.
Side Notes: The seed God deposited in you is your future. If we give the seed the right environment, then it will grow, developed and flourished. Therefore, check the friends we are with that is killing our dreams or visions. Use the right friends as a fertilizer.
