Moment of Realities
Topic -: The one thing
Thursday, September 3rd.
Apostle O. Isaac
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her (Luke 10:42).
Life becomes so beautiful when it is being lived for the reason why we were created. All through the ministry of Jesus Christ at his first coming to the earth, he made us understand the importance of doing that "one thing" that really matters to God. We have been cultured while growing up, that God is concerned about many things. Everything God asked from us is not about many things but about one thing. When we miss this one thing, worry step in.
More than a thousand years, from the time Adam fell, God worked to bring about "one thing". Colossians 1:27 told us about that one thing that made God raise different prophets in different generations to announce ahead about the one thing that matters to God. Colossians 1:27 reads: "To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory".
The one thing to God is bringing Christ to stay inside of man (male and female). To God, Jesus dying at the cross is not his main focus but rather the cross is a means to an end; that is bringing Christ into man through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. From our opening scripture, Jesus said, one thing is needful and Mary has chosen it, and it shall not be taken from her. Don't live just trying out everything to know what will work. No, discover that one thing that makes your strength to be seen and go for it. So you can in turn fulfil that one thing that matter to God.
God wrought in Christ that one thing that matter to him. Now God is biding us to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. God is now dependent on you to help him announce to everyone that, he has forgiven their sins. Reading all the books to acquire certificates, and doing everything to make money, if this one thing God bid us to do is not done by you, you have wasted God's resources in you. God invested so much in bringing you to where you are, in order for you to be able to tell those in that class about Christ.
Scriptures for Meditation for the day: John 4:34 and Philippians 3:13.
PRAYER
Father in the name of Jesus, I ask for the eyes that sees and the ear that hear, in order to know the one thing that I'm created to fulfill on this earth. I refuse to live an empty life. I live in accordance with the perfect and acceptable will of God for my life. Amen.
