*TOPIC: GROW UP AND TAKE CHARGE*
*TEXT:Gal 4:1*
_What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate_
*LESSONS*
Growth is the most important need of a heir for him to shift status from begging to commanding. The earth is complex, it was created through wisdom and it takes the same wisdom to manage it. God expects His sons to grow up in wisdom in order to be in possession. Life is complex, it takes wisdom to know the path of life just like we have different pathways in the biochemical structure of man that sustain its functionality. Likewise, life has pathways that God made: one of this is the pathway of life.
David confessed that God will show him the path of life (Psalm 16:11). This is the heir saying the father will show him the secret of how the “company” functions so that he can be in charge of its operations. It takes a different knowledge to move from being a staff to be a manager.
A staff waits to receive but a manager controls what happens. The control of life is in the hand of sons. It is in our hands, in my hands and in your hands! Glory to God for making us the heirs of the kingdom. Will you arise and grow up or stay as a spiritual babe? You determine your day of coronation to the throne.
Now, as long as the heir is not in possession, he is at the mercy of those and things he ought to be in charge of. Is that not amazing? He will beg for what he ought to command!
The first thing is to create the hunger to pursue growth, development by all means. After this seek true knowledge of God. Study, study and completely surrender to him!
Increase with personal growth is a burden!
*PRAYER ALERT*
Father, thank you for your inheritance, it is my turn to take over. Open my eyes to see the path of life as I seek your face through the word. I command all veils to be removed in Jesus name.
