SEEKING GOD FINDING YOU (PART TWO)

Sonship, responsibility, and why results follow discipline

One of the most powerful yet most ignored instructions Jesus gave is found in Matthew 28. Go. Teach. Make disciples. That was not a suggestion. It was a transfer of responsibility.

God’s method on the earth is the believer. God is sovereign, but He has chosen to limit His activity to human participation. Spirits do not fulfil the responsibilities of flesh. Authority may be spiritual, but execution is human. if you dont move, God wont and thats as real as it gets

God will not preach the gospel. Believers will.God will not make disciples. Believers will.God will not reconcile the world to Himself. Believers will.

This is not new. Genesis 1 shows us that dominion was given to man, but not just any man. Dominion was given to a man made in God’s image and likeness. God placed His man on the earth as a partner, not a spectator.

An active relationship with God awakens a burden in you. The burden of sonship. You stop seeing your life as isolated from God’s agenda. You begin to understand that your existence carries responsibility.

This is why Scripture calls us ambassadors. God is making His appeal through us. That means how we live, how we think, how we carry ourselves matters.

The reason the church often feels like it has leverage but very little result is not because the gospel lacks power. Romans tells us the gospel is the power of God unto salvation. The issue is not power. The issue is discipline.

Grace brings us into the family. Sonship trains us to carry the family name. Discipline is not punishment. It is proof of belonging.

Many believers want the privileges of sonship without the training of sons. But God disciplines those He loves. Maturity requires structure. Growth requires intentionality.

If other belief systems can train, equip and mobilise their people with commitment and focus, how much more should the people who carry the truth walk with discipline and purpose.

Live well. Build careers. Make money. Enjoy life. But ensure your life is tied to the Kingdom. Your existence must never be neutral to God’s agenda.

I hope this blessed you

Yours
