Fit for the Masters Use
Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the life, it means there are other ways,
coated with lies and leads to darkness.
Let me remind us of another scripture, Jesus said I am the good shepherd, it means
there is a bad shepherd; let's get this straight, its possible to be fit for the
masters use but which master? Once Jesus said to someone you are like your father
the devil, it means that the devil has a fully functional deceptive system, designed
to mimic the authority of God. Hence when we say fit for the masters use, we need to
emphasis which master cos some of us are unknowingly or knowing living a contracts
that contravene the authority of God. You cannot be visiting a witch doctor for
charms and claim you belong to Jesus neither can you be sleeping around as a single
person and claim you are with God. Don't be deceived, church attendance accounts for
nothing, don't get carried away by your attendance, God is not impressed by
attendance but by obedience. Of what use is a well attended service with completely
unfaithful attendees. Our many works do not impress God when our hearts are far from
him.
Face it guy, being fit for the masters use is not just a cliché, its the confession
of a believer who has been forged in the furnace of Gods workshop. The bible says
by their fruits you shall know them. Any vessel fit for the masters(God) use would
never be mistaken for otherwise; So check yourself again, are you fit for Gods use
or just another porn making a caricature of the entire process of redemption. God
said; if your neither hot nor cold I would spit you out. There is no sitting on the
wall, you are either fit for Gods use or you are not. God is looking for committed
hearts, people that would take a stand come rain or sun; so make a decision, that
you fell is not an excuse to stop trying, its in your many attempt that you master
the needed skill for doing the job. Practice makes perfect, endure that your
purpose is right with God, a fall of a God driven person is just an occasion to be
better, your greatest undoing is when you are neither here nor there. When you make
a decision to stand with and for God, it comes with ap pending challenges but so is
the limitless grace that comes with your decision for God has already provided all
that's needed for the journey; so quit dwelling on one failed event and look at the
bigger picture. To be fit for the masters use, you must be ready to be forged by
the master and trust me guys, when I say forged, its FORGED. God would overturn
every cell in your body till you realise that he is your destination and the
journey is meant to reveal himself(God) in you. God is the master planner, in the
decision to serve him is the decision to be crucified with Christ, this is
something we need to understand to help us hold firm when it looks like the earth
beneath us is caving in. So again I ask, fit for the masters use- which master; cos
if it the God we serve, the unstoppable, unshakeable and unchangeable God; then you
got to hold fast no matter what comes your way. Its a decision you must make
independent of emotions and sentiments, cos until then you'll confuse fit for the
masters use with fit for the masters use without really asking the question: which
master?
