Mark 4:36-37
If the chef is not passionate about the process of preparing
a given meal then when the time to serve the meal comes to pass, the people who
have been scheduled to take the meal will not find satisfaction in the efforts
of the chef.
This is so because the meal will surely not be appealing,
attractive, and delicious and henceforth the meal will not be a blessing to the
partakers thereof.
Much so if the word of God that has been earmarked by God to
bless the people of God is going to come out of your belly then you have got to
endure a process.
A process which will expose you to the fire of God whose purpose
is to perfect that which God has laid on the inside of you, the only way that
you going to tell that you have been perfected to a level of blessing the
people of God with the word is when you come through the attack against your
life and purpose standing and praising God.
You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s
people with his holy word after overcoming every battle against your life.
You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s
people with his holy word after you have been through the fire and you have not
been destroyed but rather you have stayed alive to tell the story.
You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s
people with his holy word after you have been to hell and back and yet still
have your praise gear on.
You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s
people with his holy word that has the propensity to deliver, restore and take
people to the next level after you have endured the worst storm of your life
and yet still you keep on holding unto the Lord your God.
You can tell that you have been perfected to bless God’s
people with his holy word that has the capacity to deliver and change the world
after you have lost all there is to lose but yet still you keep on trusting God
to give you much more than you have ever possessed.
At this juncture, it’s here and now that we ought to
appreciate that the reason why Jesus allows his disciples in Mark 4:36-37 to be
exposed to a storm was in order to prepare them to be able to bless the people
of God big time after his very own
departure.
Thus it’s fundamental to understand that the reason why God
gives you a promise and instead of things getting better, they just get worse
is because God is preparing you to receive the promise.
God prepares you for the blessing by way of a process which
sometimes requires for you to be put under pressure and to go through the fire,
the storm and the fierce floods.
And after the process you will then receive the promise.
People who are afraid of the process never get the opportunity to serve God in order
for their service in God to be a blessing to the people of God.
Furthermore, you will never be a blessing to the people of God
till you learn how to enjoy the process which God ordains in order to prepare
you to inherit and possess the blessings that he ordained for you before the
foundation of the earth.
