LESSONS: I am learning from some believers on Facebook, be discerning though

For everyone who breaks a frontier in business, ministry or any organization that you want to start or run, you will face opposition.



I have handled some degree of opposition and by God's grace come through because I got training from some leaders known and unknown. By the grace of God, I have learned many things I will be sharing in my blogs. Today I will be sharing some things that will come in handy in rising to who God has called you to be.

When you come under attacks, two things you need to guard is your heart and your actions. When your heart and actions are guarded, you will have favour with God and promotion will come only because you remain faithful to God. This guy on the internet puts it clearer than me. You can't be the enemy of the whole world or you will get destroyed and no one will care but God because everyone else is trying to live their own life; only God has got your back totally.



Here are some guidelines that will help you: It is called FIVE KEYS TO HANDLING LIES AND ATTACKS.

Except you want to remain a nobody, because when you are nobody no one bothers about you, but when there is potential, opposition will arise. If you know how to handle it wisely, you will grow by the opposition but if you don't you will be destroyed and there will be no one to weep over you because the world is callous and will keep moving.

Learn, learn, learn.
This is the way to grow and become great. This is the process.

Work on your character: Your character is more important than your reputation and your character will eventually outrun your reputation. Keep your dream alive and fix your eyes on the One who will always have your back. You will get there. All the heroes of faith went through this and came out glowing. You will glow too. You will rise, you will shine.

Isaiah 60
It says arise, shine for your light is come, the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

The bible says that the light is come. The glory of the Lord is risen upon you. Never forget this. God knew you were not perfect because He called you to be His son/daughter. If your perfection or imperfection was going to be a problem, he would not have called you.

To walk with God, you need to understand that what He says is higher than what men, women, boys and girls will say. You need to understand that God is sovereign and omnipotent, omnipresence and omniscience. He can do anything. What He does He protects and He defends. You can trust Him. 

Isaiah 60 says that there is deep darkness in the earth but the Lord will arise upon you and His glory will be seen on you. So in spite of the obstacles, know that the glory of the Lord will defend you. The Lord will show you the way by the angel that comes from His presence and that like the children of Israel, the covenant will protect you and all that is yours, your family, your jobs, your businesses, your family nuclear and extended will be covered by that covenant. 

The bible speaks about the inheritance that the saints (those in Christ) and what they should have. The words of the bible says that we have received an abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness so that we can reign in life. 

God has given us (those IN CHRIST) an open door so that we can be able rule, reign and have dominion in this life. God wants us to be in a place of perpetual provision, protection and direction. The one in Christ is never stranded because the ones for the one in Christ are always more than the ones against no matter how many the number that are against.

You must learn how to walk in the Spirit and stay aligned because the most important thing in the life of any believer is to please God and faith pleases God. Walk in the Spirit (Galatians 5) and to disarm the enemy (the enemy does not mean other human beings but the devil) walk in love.

Just crucify your flesh and walk in love towards all men especially those you perceive to be your enemies. Just love. Romans 5:5 teaches you that you have the capacity to walk in love no matter what. Enjoy the article.

Fight and win in the Spirit. Refuse to enter into the flesh. Stay in the shadow of the almighty. You will find safety there in God's presence and the best thing of all, you are going higher!
