CHASING AFTER THE WIND



I have few questions to ask tonight that have been bothering me...

What is this whole thing about using another Man's results, lifestyle, and achievement to check yours? - COMPARISON
What is the whole idea about taking wrong actions, striving hard, becoming someone else to contest? - COMPETITION
Why the Comparison?
Why the Competition?
Why channeling your energy wrongly?
Why trying to become who God did not say you are?
Why answering the names he has not called you?
Ecclesiastes 4:4 AMPmade me understand by doing the above, you are CHASING AFTER THE WIND!
I have come to realize we do the above because WE DO NOT KNOW WHO WE ARE IN CHRIST!
Listen,
• The earlier you know WHO YOU ARE (Identity), the better.
• The earlier you know YOU ARE UNIQUE (your ordination in Christ), the better.
• The earlier you know you are CALLED, the faster devil stops cheating you.
• The earlier you know you have a role to play in his agenda that requires your participation and taking responsibility, the better.
You know what?
° Comparison reveals you are not enough; Competition makes you run the vanity race.
° Comparison misleads you; Competition delays you.
° Comparison makes you focus wrongly; Competition takes you off track.
It is high time to seek God's face and know exactly what he would have you do.
Live the life God has called you to, stop living another's life.
Drop the pressure, stop measuring your life with another man's standard!
(2 Corinthians 10:12-13).
Stop wasting time, stop channeling your energy wrongly!
The assignment is bigger than you think!
Focus! Focus! Focus on God!
Sir/Ma, read carefully,
People are working diligently in the secret to becoming.
Stop the Competition, stop the Comparison.
Let your result announce you.
Focus on what God has asked you to do.
Be You!
Do You!
You are Enough!
STOP CHASING AFTER THE WIND!!!
