YES, THERE'S A TIME YOU'RE NOT

 YES, THERE'S A TIME YOU'RE NOT 


Success is also knowing what you're not, at a particular time. John the Baptist knew he wasn't the Messiah, and that made him one of the greatest born of a woman, Jesus said so. 


    Listen, there's a time you're not qualified to be a teacher, that's when to sit and learn, so you save both yourself and your hearers, Paul said this to Timothy heartily. Hebrews 5:12 |BBE states “And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers...”, implying there's a time you're not, and launching out at the wrong time will cripple your growth by the weight of responsibility!


 Once you recognize you're not yet equipped to be a tutor, see it as the right launch window to press on in accurate knowledge, that's when you should be slow to speak and quick to listen.


     You might ask, "okay, so when should I get into the position of teaching (not just leading)", it's simple, when you can now identify with how Jesus spoke and lived, independent of life's circumstances, where you recognize the authority of scripture as committed to your trust (1 Timothy 1:11).


   Babies only talk when they grow, and that is where their intelligence is tested, listen, you'll never know how ignorant and naive you sound at your level of growth until you decide to listen more than you speak, so know your timelines, know when you're not a teacher, when you don't qualify to eisegetically touch on bible expository and when you're not supposed to lead publicly, for your own safety. 


   It is the duty of your leader and Pastor to signal your graduation into that phase of ministrial service with varied opportunities of responsibility.

 

    Unpreparedness before sudden exposure only destroys, Uriah was suddenly placed at the hottest front of the battle by King David, that could have looked like a promotion from God, but what he didn't know was the difference between a promotion and a set-up is adequate training with evident trails of capacity.


    Imminent promotion always leaves a trail, it doesn't just happen, there should have been a faithfulness with little, to guide your desire for much. Don't desire what you're not prepared and equipped to do, the enemy can bring it your way to shame and damage that propensity. Win, go for the kill, phyrrhic victory is not an option. In politics, they'll term such an unprepared escapade "a political suicide". 


  Your faithfulness today, should be the only foundation on which you build higher desires for authority. Your desires should be informed by the amount of training you've received. Mark these words!


   It is not God promoting you if you "feel" ready, you "must" be ready, and that will take years of adequate ruggedness and training, listen to your leader, and know where to stand and when on the battle field, don't ever promote yourself, and haste-slowly with promotions when you're not adequately prepared for them, remember Uriah and be wise, don't rush, learn. Never forget this!

WHY ARE YOU STILL NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP

DAYSTAR ANSWERS A MAJOR QUESTION BOTHERING LADIES IN GODLY RELATIONSHIPS Honest & Open Conversations With Pst. π’Ÿπ’Άπ“Žπ“ˆπ“‰π’Άπ“‡ π’₯π’žπ»π‘€ During one of those interesting panel conversations, an eye-opening and heart-stirring session as one panelist described it, thoughtful and practical questions were directed at Daystar on the discussion theme " WHY ARE YOU STILL NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP ".  Here, Pastor took the opportunity to narrow in on the balance between submission and respect from a woman and a man, respectively. And how this signals one's readiness for commitment — stating that the first step towards anything relationship : is "being honest with yourself", and not following the crowd into one of life's most important decisions, thus, the choice of love and romantic commitment. On the note of honesty, he sited an instance from a legend where an elephant and a mice were to cross a bridge. The mice couldn't proceed because it would fall through the...

WHEN TIME IS OLD ENOUGH, UNTIL THEN....

  THE MATURITY OF TIME : WHEN TIME IS OLD ENOUGH TO HOST (HANDLE) YOUR MANIFESTATION!        Can I tell you something? . (waiting....) : Alright, thank you. :)  There's this wisdom you should know very early so you don't hurt (shipwreck) yourself in this walk of faith. Now this is it : “Never try to prove a point to anyone in your growth process”. A two week old mustard tree should not have to try to explain itself to other birds of it's capabilities, by hosting them on its branches at a juvenile stage. Though someday that tree will host thousands of birds, at the wrong time, the weight will only destroy it's future.        It is same with that young 5year old boy whose friends at school keep forcing him to prove a point to them that the bugatti his dad willed to him really belonged to him. Now the attempt of that boy to prove a point by driving that bugatti at that infantile stage could lead to his death. This is the knowledge we each n...

WHERE IS MY SCHOOL BAG

WHERE IS MY SCHOOL BAG — PLEASE WHERE IS IT , HURRY, HURRY, DADDY IS WAITING FOR ME!  My dear, someday we'll all return home like a little boy with his two arms swinging through his school bag, but the joy of our transition will be dependent on what we each did with our time in school (our world) and what we used our break hours for : we'll say to one another, this faithful saying and true — where's my school bag, where's my school bag, hurry : where are the souls I won, where are the people I followed up on to church, hurry please, daddy is calling me, it's time - it's time, I'm going home.  Indeed, we'll be going home someday, and everyday ushers us closer to the ringing of that closing bell. And say like Reuben (in Genesis 44:34) : I ought to come to this firm realization and focus :       “ How can I go back to my (Heavenly) Father if the boy (my generation) is not with me? No! Do not let me see (return to) the misery (shame) that would come upon my...
