Venue: UNILAG Multipurpose Hall.
TEXT: John 8:3-11; 1 Chro 4:9-10; Micah 7:8; Rom 12:2
People may have condemned you for your past decisions, but they never know the options that were available to you when you made them. Whatever people say about you may be a fact, but it is not the truth. When other things are failing, what you hear from God is what will stand.
Anyone could have written off Peter, but they had no idea Jesus had prayed for him. If like Peter, you have denied Jesus, He’s praying for you, and His mercy will speak for you. Therefore, don’t write yourself off yet – Keep working, Keep moving and Keep forming.
You have a choice; you can allow your past and what people say to hold you down, but note that whatever others have said about you is child’s play to where God is taking you to. If you have not heard it from God it does not matter. Your past doesn’t have to hold you down, because the Lord has said –
“… remember not the former or the things of old; behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth, I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers on the desert”.
When you have not heard something, you will hear everything. At times when everything fails, it is that encouragement or calling that you heard from God that will keep you standing. When you hear from God, you can’t hear everything that the world says.
People may judge you for your past, or present situation; remember that you are still forming. You haven’t seen anything yet.
REMEMBER:
Keep WORKING, keep MOVING and keep FORMING
Don’t ever stop forming, because this is not the best version of you, you are far from the best you keep emerging because the paths of the righteous keep shining more and more until the PERFECT DAY and that day is when Jesus appears in the sky
Prayers:
The yoke of the past upon you is broken in the name of Jesus. Amen
Powers that stop your parents will not stop you in Jesus name. Amen
