THE TWO CHILDREN AT THE FATHER'S HOUSE
Read Luke 10:38-42
Luke 10:41-42, KJV
"41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her."
There are two types of children at the father's house. One is the content seeker while the other is the distracted type. When what is germane; what will be the ingredient of their future and calling is being communicated to them, you will see that one pays attention while the other disdains that wisdom. The wisdom you don't open to, how can you absorb?
This is why some have wondered why some children are more successful than others under the same parents. Do you know one of the reasons? Some open up themselves to the wisdom of their parents than others. The others didn't have the revelation of that wisdom's importance when it was being communicated. So, it became a permanent shortage in their future life which is now visible for everyone to see. That same thing do happen in church and wherever God has set a role model or influence to impart something into those observing their lives. In the congregation of many men and under the anointing, you'll notice that some have soaked into themselves the wisdom of the model and they're getting better for it. At times, there are physical symptoms of that. They can talk, move or react to things like that same man. So, the flow that's flowing for that model unconsciously will begin to flow for them. When Jesus told the disciples that they'll do great works and greater works they'll do, do you think He was speaking to those who weren't listening or haven't been listening to His instructions? Not at all. He was speaking to true sons like Elisha who will not stop following Elijah until the mantle for ministry can't but be torn for him so he could take his place also amidst the strong and the great. No one can do great things let alone greater things who has not been hearkening to some certain instructions somewhere.
John 14:12, KJV
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."
Children who will manifest the father and manifest more than the father are those who have not detested equipping. You must decipher. You must be awake and aware. You must see and be touched. You must feel and be receptive. Stop being nonchalant. Pay attention to what pays. Ignore the minor and let what authorities give be what you're gathering.
You can have a teacher but it's not your teacher who will determine solely what you'll be. He may be the most resourceful man but if his wisdom doesn't become yours, you will be the most poor fellow in destiny and manifestation. Have you seen Martha and Mary? Have you seen students who get distracted when the teacher is communicating and experimenting with molecules at their sight? Many parents complain their children aren't doing well. Why will they since they're the Marthas in class who haven't let girls stop infatuating them, colleagues distracting them and gadgets giving them another focus. But there are Marys in the classroom/life settings and under their tutors who have learnt to give attention to whom attention is due. They're those that graduate faster and are congratulated for having done well. Upon the year's end, may you have something to show for having being under the contact of a resourceful master. Marys will always but Marthas don't always have proves.
PRAYER: Lord, where are intentional distractions programmed into my life, I refute these strange weapons of failures. I receive new focus to follow my calling or career model.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 16:16-18:23, 1 Thessalonians 4:1-5:3, Psalm 81:1-16, Proverbs 25:6-8
