WORD FOR TODAY

in #stach6 years ago

Matthew 16
24 . Then Jesus said to the disciples, " If any of you wants to be my follower, you must put aside your selfish ambition, shoulder your cross, and follow me.

Many are the desires in a man's heart, it is the Lord's counsel that shall stand. Whatever ambition and quest that is not divinely orchestrated is not meant to be divinely sponsored, and it is recognised as worldly lust by heaven.

It is the will of God for your life that you pursue what He ordained for you, not what you design for yourself. I define worldliness as a pursuit of anything that is not orchestrated by God. That an ambition is good does not make it godly; it could be good but worldly, as long as its not founded by God. Push 'your' life ambition aside, and learn to pursue the scheme of heaven for your life.

Your cross is not what you design for yourself, your cross is what heaven design for your life. It is selfish and wasteful for a man to pursue his personal ambition.

God is looking for men and women who will be pursuing His scheme for their life as if something is pursuing them.
Men who will be committed to divine agenda, not personally drafted goal?

This your vision and goal that you are pursuing day and night, who designed it?
If it is not God, it is worldly. Have a fruitful week.
