REJECT BEING AN EX
The worst that could ever happen to any man is
to be an ex-champion in any sphere of life. It is said that the down-turn of
the rich isn’t worthy to be beheld but for the wretched there is hope.
Those who have once been rich and now hardly
find daily bread or who have once lived divinely healthy etc know what I am
talking about better and I am sure you wouldn’t want to be one by reason of
their story. I can give countless examples;
Samson who single handily killed three
thousand men with just a jaw bone of an ass became a slave in the territory of
his enemies, Judges 16v21. King Solomon who was recorded to have been the
richest King that ever lived became so poor in his later days by reason of
following the gods of his wives and concubines that he had to impose very high
taxes on the people on till they could hardly breathe under the load,
2Chronicles 10v4 .
We can go on and on like this but I will like
you to have an uncontrollable hatred for becoming an ex in whatever you do. Why
must you reject being an ex? Simple! 2Corinthians 5v17 says;
“Therefore
if anyone be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away:
behold all things are become new”
The promise of old things passing away and all
things becoming new is unto them that “be in Christ”. Those that “be in Christ”
are those that are grounded in Him; those that have been approved by God by
reason of continuous study in the word, 2Timothy 2v15.
Conclusively, it will take a man with God on
his inside to mark the sands of time and such one as has determined to carry
God on his inside i.e. one who has made God the reason for his living have
overcome the world and her troubles. Hence, for you to retain the burn in God
you must remain in Christ. Be wise!
