This is why you shouldn’t compare yourself with other people

In this universe, we are all given different tasks to fulfill, and each of us is granted a period of time to complete them. What I'm saying is that you shouldn't compare yourself with others because their assignments are extremely different from yours.

The Bible mentions several prophets, and if you study them, you'll notice that their missions and responsibilities are vastly different. At first, Moses was tasked with freeing the Israelites from Egypt, whereas Jesus was tasked with freeing the entire world from the devil.

Joshua was given only one task on earth: to lead the children of Israel across the Jordan River into the Promised Land. Joshua was the man whom God chose to succeed Moses. Jonah was created to deliver the message of repentance to Nineveh. They were God's prophets, but they had different missions.

He created us in such a way that we are able to contribute to what he is doing in the world. Every person who comes to Christ brings something to the table that no one else can. Instead of making us arrogant, this knowledge should humble us as we celebrate our unique position and acknowledge God's supreme plan.

Another thing to keep in mind is that just because God is blessing others doesn't mean your turn won't come. So give thanks to God for them, since yours is on its way.

This year, I urge all my readers to refrain from comparing their lives with those of other people because their responsibilities are vastly different from yours. If you haven't received your assignment yet, pray that God will disclose it to you.

It is important to complete your tasks before you live in this world, because God some day is going to judge us.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Warning from God: Take your calling very seriously!!!

Imagine the consequences if Jesus Christ had not embraced the mission on earth that he was given by the father (John 6:38). Imagine what could have happened to millions of souls. Consider what could have happened to the Israelites if Moses had never taken his calling seriously when God called him to deliver the Israelites from Egypt (Exodus 3:10). God has invested something in you, and it takes you to pray and discover what he has invested in you. Some of you God gave you the anointing of healing, but you aren’t even aware. Millions of souls are lost out there, and this situation requires you and me to take our calling very seriously. So many people are dying in hospitals from cancer, diabetes, and other diseases, while you are ignoring doing the will of the father, and you expect things to go well with you. Certainly, not everyone is destined for the same path, as God has assigned us various missions and duties. The key here is to discover your true identity. When you don't take ...

Wait upon the LORD

Life resembles a route. Additionally, there will be stop signs and speed limit or increase signs along the route! I chose to use this analogy because there are times in life when all you have to do is wait on the Almighty. And just get more prayer done when you feel like a situation has triumphed over you. Simply put on the gear and switch it out. There are moments when we may feel as though the Lord is not seeing us, hearing us, or responding to our prayers. We can place all of our faith and belief in the living God at these times. Knowing that the Lord is with us and in charge of our lives allows us to wait on Him with great anticipation. He is going to fulfill his promise. He is going to save us. Even when we are not aware of Him, He is constantly at work for our good (Romans 8:28). Waiting on the Lord is something we can learn through prayer, seeking, active trusting, patience, and courage. When we wait on the Lord, we confidently anticipate a favorable outcome, for which we ...
