Get Real!

You should already be well on the way to obey. Obedience is the action that puts you in position to receive. It’s like being a football receiver who runs the route so he’s in the right place to make the catch. There’s a plan for victory and the players put it in action by obedience. The players don’t choose the plan but receive it from those “above them” those who are supposed to be wise in strategy and see the big picture. A team is only as good as the direction of its leaders and the execution of its players. If a team’s coaches knew everything and could foresee the future then they would surely be champions if the players would simply act out the orders. They would be able to defeat others with more skill simply by having the ability to pick the right people to be in the right place at the right time to receive. That would be a true dream team. It doesn’t exist in football or any other sport but you can be a member of God’s dream team and a play for His Kingdom.

God has already blessed you and intends for you to have victory and good success. He’s not working with “solo singers” but with groups and building His team on the earth which is the church. His goal is getting the gospel into all the world And He has a plan by which all the members of the team can be blessed to be a blessing. He has sent the Holy Spirit to live in you not only to coach but also to empower you to excel. When you take our place in your local church you become an active member of His team. Then you are to pray and obey everyday and run your routes to receive. If you’re not willing to take orders from above and play on God’s team why would you expect to prosper? If you have your own agenda and expect God to bless it and make you the star player and then pay you millions for it then you are sorely deceived. Some people won’t even show up for church which is team practice. And they don’t want to get involved in “organized religion” or play in “the game” or work on His goal of getting the gospel into all the world. They are “team self” it’s all about them and they sit around and expect everything from God while doing nothing for His cause. There is no excuse! It doesn’t matter if you perfectly love church “practice” or not it is a requirement for real team members. “But I was hurt or had a bad experience!” Waa! Get over it and get on with doing God’s will. Some have had a few bad experiences and got hurt playing football but the real players didn’t just quit and say, “I’m not into organized sports I just play for myself now but I still expect the team to send me a check.” Well if you’re not interested in what God is doing then He’s not interested in what you are doing. And if your not an active member of a local church then you are on “team self” being self centered and selfish and will be on a shelf until you get over yourself. There are multitudes of people lost and entering eternal torment everyday while fat and sassy “Christians” sit around “worship at home” and do nothing to help and pray for God to bless their self-centered agendas. This is utter ignorance and a bunch of B.S. Am I making you mad? Too bad, I’d rather have a few more mad “Christians” and a few less people headed to hell!

If you get involved in what God is doing then God will be involved in what you are doing and you will be blessed and have good success as you fulfill Gods will. You should already be well on the way to obey. Because obedience not only puts you in position to receive “the blessings” but more importantly PEOPLE into the family of the Father. And when we all get to heaven none of this stuff is going to matter. It’s not what you were able to obtain but who you able to influence and bring with you that will be the true eternal blessing.

God forbid I should spend my life seeking stuff when I should be seeking souls!

Matt 6:24, 31-34
24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

…31 "Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
NKJV

Mark 10:45
45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

Matt 16:24-27
24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. 25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works.
