Many
today wonder why they are either stagnant or sluggishly making progress. They
tend to focus their attention on the wrong thing. That is why you are
admonished to check yourself first to be sure you are not your own enemy when binding
your enemies. If your tyre is punctured and flat, you only need to pull-off the
highway and either change to an extra tyre or fix the bad one.
But
really, how fast can a car with its tyres flat move? You will agree with me
that it can only make a sluggish noticeable progress for a while after which
you began to damage or components of the cars such as the tyre itself, the ream
and of course the road on which it is travelling etc.
This
sinerio accurately describes the lives of so many in the world today especially
in the body of Christ. I will be as brief as possible. Many leave their lives
for fate to decide. Many are worn-out because they didn’t stop when they ought
to so as to change their flat tyre, now their tyres are worn-out with their
reams out of shape. They have even damaged the road as well and are already on
their way to the grave.
Unfortunately,
many are already in the grave due to their ignorance of this truth. The man at
the pool of Bethesda in John 5:1-9 was stagnant for about thirty-eight years on
this ground. The woman with the issue of blood was worn-out having travelled
for too long on a flat tyre. However, in her case she couldn’t access the
vulcanizer but she eventually did. A man of God died in abject poverty for
travelling on flat destiny tyre in 2Kings 4:1-7 but God came to the rescue of
his family. Before I talk about the vulcanizer of destiny tyres, it wouldn’t be
absurd to mention the major deflator of destiny-tyres.
DEFLATOR OF DESTINY-TYRES
Sin
is a sinker of destiny. You will agree with me that a car reduces in height
once it’s tyres are deflated. In the same vein, when sin steps into a man’s
life he reduces continuously until he vanishes if he doesn’t get to meet the
Saviour. Eccl 10:8 says;
“...whoso
breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him”
