Are You Making a Difference or Marking The Register?

Do you know what I am thinking?
What do we do after an inspirational speech?
What do we do after we exit an inspirational session (place of worship?)
What do we do after we get a revelation or a prophecy?
What do we do after a powerful prayer session with decrees?
What do we do after a praise and worship session?
What do we do after we have watched all possible media programmes, read books, listened to audio programmes pertaining to motivation and inspiration that we have spent money on (or invested on?)

(I’ll tell you what we do, after all of these, we get hyped, procrastinate and drop everything at the doorstep and we carry on with life as though we never attended anything. Nothing about us basically changes…absolutely nothing…waste of time, energy, money and space… psst!)

What do we do?
Has your life changed? Honestly, sit down and think about this….has it changed?
Are you still where you were couple of years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds back?
Why do you attend, listen to, read or watch that session? Why?
Was it because of peer pressure? Was it because you wanted to be seen being associated with ‘a certain group’? Was it because you wanted to mark the register as ‘oh yes I attended, I’m present’?

Then after all of these, whose life have you impacted positively?
Can people see or spot a positive difference in you worth emulating?
If the answer is no…then as bad as it hurts, you’re wasting time on earth.

This then brings the question, why are you on earth? Who are you? For what purpose is your existence? Who are you meant to be?

My dear, life is no bed of roses but it can be adventurously interesting and fulfilling.

My God tells me that in HIS presence, there is fullness of Joy and at HIS right hand, there are pleasures forever more….if this is true, which fortunately it is, then when you attend a for example, church on Sunday, because you’re in HIS presence, you should be filled with power to allow you bask in the full measure of His anointing and in return influence people around you positively. When this happens don’t you think the world will be a better place?

THIS, my brothers and sisters is what I call purpose driven, purpose fulfilled.

So what is happening to the millions, which includes you and I, that attend so many sessions…what influence is it having on our society? Look around you please, appraise the situation and put things right. For God hates hypocrites and liars, you’re either in or out…. the choice my dear, IS YOURS….

Take care and keep thinking of how you can make a difference and then do it.
