What
you become sustains you
You become what you have received. John 1: 12
Disciples of Jesus Christ, received Him when called them, they
walked with Him in the powerful, witnessed and took part in miracles He
performed. Because they received Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit. In the book
of Acts the power of the Holy Spirit manifested in them and through them.
You see, one can receive easily and as much they can receive
easily it makes, they can lose what they have received easily. That’s God doesn’t
just want us to believe Him and receive from Him but He wants us to become what
He Has called us to be. What you Receive can sustain you for a short but what
you become can sustain you forever.
Work out what you have received. Don’t lose it, keep it!
We don’t say we have received Christianity but we have become
Christians. Because Christ is whom we have received and when He is in us His characters
shows in us. Become what He has released in your life. I don’t know what He
released and how He has released it. The bible records a lot of people
receiving from Jesus Christ but only few who become what he released in their
lives. When God has released a blessing in your life, become that blessing to
the world.
God has released a light in our lives and said we must arise and
shine, show the light to the world because it cannot be hidden. Jesus Christ
our light is too bright to be hidden, too bright to be manipulated, too bright
to be killed, too bright to be buried. He conquered all because He is too
bright.
What you have received let it shine because it is not for you but for
the world.
It is easy for world to take what you have received away from you
but they can’t take what you have become. Because we didn’t receive clothes,
water, oil or any tangible things but we received Jesus Christ, the king of
kings, the King of Glory, the Prince of Peace, the One who was, who is and to
come. He is in us therefore nobody can take Him away from us. They can close
our eyes we will still speak; they can close or burn our building down but we
won’t stop preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ because He is greater than
anything in this world. In Him we move, we receive our being, we are able to
produce fruits, we are able to grow.
You become by being consistent, committed and dedicated. As Paul
said “Work out your salvation”
There can be a time where you are just following church, following
programs, following revivals, used to receiving blessings, receiving anointing,
receiving healing. And because you are used to receiving, when you don’t feel
that electric you start to doubt God and go to find that electric somewhere
else because you are used to receiving.
But when you have become that servant God wants you to be, become
that singer, become that usher, become that preacher, become that minister, you
don’t need a handshake to motivate you to work in the house of the Lord. Even when
they don’t tell you well done; you still serve because is not about what you
are getting but is all about what you are presenting to the world. Become that might
warrior of God. Become that powerful instrument, become that anointed singer of
Lord Jesus Christ.
When you have become the flesh no longer rules in your body but
the Spirit leads.
Become that
peace to your society
Become the
blessing to the needy
Become the
healing power of God to the sick
Become the
voice to the voiceless
Become the
eye to the blind
Become the
lighter to the darkness
Become the
messenger to the messed ups.
Become the
ear to the deaf
Become what
you have received.
BECOME WHAT HE HAS BECOME IN YOUR LIFE.
