I write this article today with quite a heavy heart which am kindly trying to seek comfort for.
I never knew that Satan can also use people the way God uses other people to bless us. I have heard and seen man being lifted by man to certain levels in life.
My uncle had a stroke while he was driving and had to spend close to the whole night at the side of the road and as it was getting close to midnight, someone who saw that he needed help and called an ambulance for him.
As they were examining him they saw bottles of beer in his car and assumed that he was unconscious because of the beer. Instead they did not take him to the hospital but took him to the police station and not the hospital.
After this event I have averred that the notion being held by some believers that all they need is God is an erroneous impression which should de discarded. It has become a popular refrain from most Christians that in order to succeed and achieve anything in life all they need is God and not humans.
In this case the ambulance attendance just saw the way my uncle lying lifeless and concluded that he did not need his help.
The irony of this position is that God is a spirit and works only through man to bless other people. According to him, God cannot give anyone anything unless he uses humans to help others. In order for you to appreciate what I intend to put across, Jesus needed more than a God he had God’s favor but he needed the favor of man in order to execute God’s plan for him towards humanity.
For the key to your next level is in somebody, s hands .it is not in heaven, it’s not with angles, it is with somebody.
God would use men and women to bless people and the devil would also use men and women to hurt people because the devil knows that God doesn’t operate in isolation or in a vacuum.
GOD WORKS THROUGH MEN TO MEN. He uses men to bless men, men to help men and because the devil knows that he will always make sure that he attacks men and deploy men to hurt you, to offend you, you will never again trust anybody. This sad situation is affecting most Christians to the extend that they have lost trust for everyone within the church and outside.
Such a situation has become an obstacle inhibiting fellow Christians from seeking help from others, but the reality is that God can only bless others through other people.
But I have seen people in Church who love God, they believe in God, preachers who are successful, very anointed, but they don’t trust anybody, they would not relate with anybody.
One in life can be gifted, very skillful, very brilliant, much anointed, and very successful and they think that that’s what it takes.
God never made any one of us to be an island unto themselves. We are all interdependent. You need me and I need you. Everybody need someone in our life time we are going to need somebody.
There comes a time in a man’s life when the things that people have put their trust in most and the things they lean on most fails. Whether its brilliance, skill or anointing or prophetic powers or money or success or influence or gift or wealth.
There comes a day and time in your life when it fails.
It is during such times when all that people depend on fails, they realize the need for another that’s why it is important to appreciate others.
In whatever position that you have in life it is there to make you be a brigade to your own success and all the other people around you.
Allow yourself to have standards that you set for yourself and when you set them remember to have excellence, for excellence is an endless pursuit and we never arrive but we keep improving every other day. It’s a season of glory and your life will shine.
Never race against another person but race against self.
