Change Your Perspective

Hello everyone,

Have you been a tight situation in your life and you pray to God for a breakthrough? Now, what we need to understand is that God has answered our prayers long before we asked Him, what we really need is a direction from Him to the result to our breakthrough. But we could also face challenges where God has directed us to the place of our breakthrough but you do not find anything, and you keep asking God and He keeps directing you to the same place but you still do not find anything, what could be wrong?

Under the first Adam which has framed the world’s system, there is a high level of self-centredness, but under the last Adam, Jesus, the self is dead. You often hear people say things like, “Jesus first, yourself last, and others in the middle.” Under the new covenant, that doesn’t count, what counts is, “Jesus first and then others,” why? As I said, under the new covenant, you are dead. The reason why we fail to see what God has led us to is that we look at it from our perspective, which is carnal, and as I explained yesterday, the carnal mind brings death and is also enmity with God [ref. Romans 8:6 and 7].

What we need to understand is that God provides our needs and not wants, and if you are to see what He wants you to see, you need to see it from the spirit level. Now the spirit level doesn’t just mean seeing things that are intangible to others, what it means is for you to change your perspective, change how you view things. You are to view things from new creation angle of life and not the carnal way of viewing things. So how do you know this?

God has called everyone into a mission here on earth, and as we get to know God more we get to know more about our calling here on earth. The truth is that everything God has called us into is service. Everything God gives us has a purpose, and it is to fulfill what He has called you for, in other words, we should be mission conscious and not self-conscious. This would then explain the question at the beginning, the reason why you can’t see the breakthrough is that you are still self-conscious or self-centred and not God-conscious or mission conscious.

The moment our mindset is channeled towards what God has called us for, which is, in fulfilling what God has called us to do, through service, which also is about others and not yourself, your eyes become open to see what He has directed you to see. Those cars, houses, financial increase and other blessings that you know came to you from God, are not for you to just show off, they are tools God has given you in fulfilling what He has called you here on earth to do. Be mission conscious and not self-conscious, change your perspective.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
                    
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
