Dear Leader,
I say it without any doubt, that you are ONE. Take a ride and lets explore this together;
1.One of the greatest king of all time, Solomon, Israel's most wise king once said;
Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Psalms 127:1
In todays lingo, if you're counting on your own strength, you're dumb indeed! A few days into my 25 days training with some remarkable leaders in developing nations from Asia, Africa and South America and yes I am being constantly challenged.
From my mate , a successful businessman from SA, who left wonderful opportunities of making millions of Rands to my pal from Vietnam a well established Architect my basketball mate from Brazil and my room mate the gentleman from S. Korea..these men have just one thing in common..Jesus is their saviour and in control of their lives.
Today, there's a lot of talk on the win-win model in terms of positioning, yet we overlook, dismiss and postpone the most important of all positionings ie addressing the problem common to all man (sin and disobedience to God), and responding to the offer (forgiveness of sin, eternal life in Christ Jesus and promise of the Kingdom).
Friend, this to me is the ultimate win-win situation. The beginning of an exciting experience, full of challenges but with a sure end.
You can argue words, but you cannot disprove experience. In this age of Post-Modernism (the exaltation of the I) you thread dangerous paths if you do not see the hidden message behind the message. Distractions to keep you trapped abound, but the truth is still NOT relative and will never be. This TRUTH has a name, He is called Jesus and today He is offering you
1.Forgiveness, if you confess (come to me you who are weary...I will give you rest) 2.Salvation with the promise of God's kingdom when you receive Him.
What will you do with this, accept, dismis, postpone again or just plainly ignore? Tomorrow may never be yours friend so take his decision now. Receive God's forgiveness today and accept his gift...Eternity is a long time to be wrong..
I hope the word from God's messenger Isaiah be true for you...
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem. Isa 27:13 The trumpet is blown..over to you.
