IF ANY MAN WHO IS IMPOTENT MARRIES A WOMAN WITHOUT TELLING HER, THAT MAN HAS BROKEN THE LAW OF TRUTHFULNESS
TWO MAJOR ENEMIES OF CHANGE ARE TRADITION AND EXCUSES
IF THEY ARE PREACHING AND THEY SAY SOMETHING THAT PINCHES YOU, THAT’S THE AREA GOD WANTS YOU TO CHANGE
TRADITION IS AN ENEMY OF GREATNESS THAT WOULDN’T LET GO ITS CAPTIVE; A PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAP
STOP LOOKING FOR WHO TO BLAME FOR YOUR FAILURES; ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR CHANGE WITH THE WORD
PEOPLE DON’T ACCEPT GOD’S WORD FOR CHANGE BECAUSE THEY ARE ALWAYS PUSHING THE BLAME TO SOMEONE ELSE
IF THINGS ARE NOT WORKING, SETTLE WITH THE WORD AND BUILD YOURSELF IN THAT AREA
TRADITION IS A BELIEF SYSTEM THAT CONTRADICTS THE WORD
EVERY TIME YOU OBEY GOD’S WORD, THINGS MOVE IN YOUR OWN DIRECTION
FOUR OPERATIONAL FORCES IN GOD’S WORD
TWO MAJOR ENEMIES OF CHANGE
1) Tradition: tradition is not playing masquerade; tradition is a belief system that contradicts the Word. Church Gist. Tradition is not somebody going to play masquerade, that’s idolatry. Mark 7:13. Have you heard people say, ‘we have been doing it like this or I met them doing it like this’? That’s tradition.
For instance, I was talking to some staff in the office, and they said this is the way I met it. I said if you met it like this, then, why did we employ you? We employed you to improve the system you are now saying this is how you met it. So the thing you met you now continue with it. That’s tradition. Tradition is not improving on what you met. Church Gist. Why did you come in if you have to continue with the bad thing? If what you are doing is not improving your life then accept to change. Tradition is an enemy of greatness, it wouldn’t let go its captive. Tradition is a psychological trap.
Peter would have said, “No sir Jesus; it is against our tradition to cast net in the day time. When I didn’t catch anything in the night, I won’t do it.” He said I forget my own tradition. If you’re from a fishing area, it’s easier to catch in the night than in the day because when you carry the net in the day, the fish will see a reflection that is why they run away. Church Gist. That’s why they catch in the night because the night is a blind spot. When Jesus gave the command, all the fishes obeyed His Word because He is the Word. So at the Word, everything turns and today as you obey God’s Word, things will obey you. Every time you obey God’s Word, things move in your own direction. Till tomorrow, many people still believe what is not in line with the Word of God even in Church now. Say I hear.
It is tradition that you have to taste before you marry. It’s not accepted in Church everywhere. So let me ask you, how will you know if the man is still potent? True? People say it but that’s tradition. “How can you say that somebody wants to marry cannot taste first? You have to taste before you marry because you have to know whether the man is strong or not.” Church Gist. Now listen, the man who is sincere to you must open up to you if he is impotent. If any man who is impotent marries a woman without telling her, that man has broken the law of truthfulness. So the woman has the right; go for counseling. Hebrews 13:4.
2) Excuses: refuse to give excuses. Luke 14:17-18. Stop looking for who to blame for your failures; accept responsibility for change with the Word. To move forward in life, you must make decisions and be committed to actions. Great men and women are decisive in their thinking and in their actions. They think in advance and take practical steps to actualize them. Listen, from age 20, whatever happens to you and I, we must not blame anybody. Church Gist. People don’t accept God’s Word for change because they are always pushing the blame to someone else. They say if not for the government, my parents, my Church. Not even your husband nor wife is responsible for your failures, whatever anybody does is his own. Nobody is lucky, accept the truth and go for the Word of God for that is the only way you can change. If things are not working, then sit down and settle with the Word, then begin to build yourself in that area.
When I was in school in my year one, I was among the first 5 best students. In my year 2, I started going to party every weekend, my GPA began to drop. I had no carryover in year 1, by year 2, I had carryovers. Now I am telling you the truth, will I now blame the lecturers? Will I blame the system? It was me.
Can I tell you something that will baffle you? Church Gist. If they are preaching and they say something that pinches you, that’s the area God wants you to change.
God’s Word brings positive change. 2 Timothy 3:16-17. Church Gist. There are 4 operational forces in God’s Word: Doctrine, Reproof, Correction, Instruction.
