LIFE INVOLVES RISKS
Memorise:
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the
morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little
time, and then vanisheth away.
James 4:14
Read: James 4:13-16
13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city,
and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
14 Whereas ye
know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a
vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 For
that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
Message
When God calls you, it sometimes might appear like a demotion. This was my
experience. When God called me into full-time ministry, I struggled with it
because I had experienced poverty from childhood which I thought I had finally
been delivered from when I became a university lecturer. I received the call of
God when the church was in a humble state financially. I recall the day a young
man gave me a 50 kobo note; I received it and blessed him. I told him I would
spend the money on myself so that my heartfelt blessing will have an impact on
him. That night, I thought over it and wept. I ruminated on how I went from
being the Head of the Mathematics Department of a University to being a
full-timer who receives a 50 kobo gift. God is the one that specialises in
taking a man from down below and lifts him up. Those who see how far the Lord
has taken me and are unhappy about it have need of God’s mercy. Is God calling
you into full-time ministry? Is the Lord asking for more of your involvement in
the things of His Kingdom at the expense of personal and family plans? Fear not!
He is a better planner than you and what He has in store
for His faithful ones
will definitely beat your imagination.
Life is full of risks and virtually everything we do in life involves one
form of risk or the other, however, God’s call is a risk of life worth taking.
Marriage involves risk because some people get married to spouses who fast-track
their death. Staying single also is risky because the inability to perpetually
remain chaste may make the fellow end up in hell. Staying hungry has its risks
while eating food also involves risk. Some people who were not sick died while
eating or while trying to swallow food. If you are asked to come and work with
the richest man in the world who also has a reputation of uncommon generosity,
many would jump without even asking God about it. Yet, even that involves a
measure of risk. Some may take up that job and trigger their worst nightmares.
When God calls you, there is an element of risk involved but it is the safest,
surest and best risk you can ever take. If He calls you into full-time ministry,
it means He is ready to take you up as His pet project.
Key Point:
Placing your life and total cares in God’s
hands is a risk worth taking.
