I'M USELESS AS A SERVANT OF GOD IF I DON'T HAVE BURDENS FOR SOULS
Every Prophet in the Bible stood in the gap for the people of God. One of the reasons why we are called and made a Prophet and Priest is to stand in the gap for others. Even in their sinful ways, we must stand for people and nations. I have failed in my understanding of this, but no more!
Our life as Prophets and Priests must be that of burdens for souls because until His burdens are pressed on us we can't intercede or stand in the gap for anyone. If we must cry for something let it be a burden for souls.
What was that that took the burden for souls away from you?
Oh Lord, give us your burden... May sleep be far from me until your burden for souls is meant. Let it be soaked in my bones, let it burn till my breath is almost taken away, let it sink into my bone marrows, let it be like a virus in my veins, until I die may your burden for souls not be lifted.
Consume me with this desire oh Lord! Till the day I see you face to face.
Without burdens, I'm useless as a Minister of God. Simple!.
By Prophet Emmanuel Okeke
