WHICH IS YOUR STAKE TODAY

WHICH IS YOUR STAKE TODAY: GOD’S APPROVAL OR PEOPLE’S APPLAUD – ON YOU!

“Ye men of Israel, HEAR THESE WORDS; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God DID by him in the MIDST of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

Many times as Believer’s in Christ Jesus, we are crazy about people’s APPLAUD rather than awaiting God to APPROVE us in what we’ve done or about to do or already doing. Majority of time the same men or people who for once applaud or applauded us, becomes the very ones who RUNS us down and BRINGS us to the PLACES of shame and disgrace again. Hence you see SOME PEOPLE are absolutely crazy of comments or no comments about their intent to win or have an APPROVAL before they see a WORTH in themselves.

Know full well that in Christ Jesus, we are not to get DEFINE or move ABOUT by the DETAILING of others. It’s simply for this truth – That’s as Christ DISCIPLES,  AMBASSADOR’S and EMBASSY, we must always awaits God’s APPROVAL in Christ Jesus, which was and is His own act of LEGACY with the Father God, while in humanity. The reason been that the Father God will always COMMENDS and make PROVISION for whatever He COMMANDS and gives His APPROVAL signature upon it in His time.

Therefore, I exhort you today to Firstly seek DIVINE APPROVAL before you let MEN’S APPLAUD take over you in anything. For when you are DIVINELY APPROVED, He will cause you to be APPLAUDED by and before men in course of time, with ease, effortless and without questions, stress and pressure.

Also, there’s the need to STUDY to be APPROVED before God unto men. Meaning you should ENSURE to be TRAINED and SKILLED in your TRADE wherein you are unquestionable. For whom the Lord God APPROVED, no man can DISDAIN or DISANNUL. For a gracious, graceful and awesome APPROVAL, it is in the KNOWING and UNDERSTANDING, hence STUDY to be APPROVED.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that NEEDETH not to be ASHAMED, rightly dividing (APPLYING) the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15 (Emphasis mine).

It’s very important if you must attain and sustain to that onward and upward trajectory, that you STUDY to  KNOW, UNDERSTAND and be EQUIPPED in your TRADE, well enough, so that you will not falter, fail or be disgrace overtime due to IGNORANCE – LACK OF KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the acclaimed notable career, trade, profession and such like. You NEED to STUDY TO BE, that is – HOW TO BECOME in life and grace in Christ Jesus.

BE BLESSED by God’s GRACE, WISDOM and SPEED.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
