*DON'T TAKE YOUR EYES OFF*
_Key Bible Text:_
*Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.*
(Hebrews 12:2 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Listen: don't take your eyes off Jesus. In a bid to look very spiritual, some believers paint an unbiblical view of the Christian experience.
For instance, I could say, 'Nobody can harass me. Those who have tried it fainted instantly. Some of them could not move at all. I am a territorial general in the army of God.'
That would sound very impressive you know? Till you read the Bible and see that they slapped Jesus. Till you hear the same Jesus say that even His Apostles would be beaten and thrown in jail. Paul even had perils of robbers.
In fact, we are told that we could be wronged and spitefully treated. The picture we have in the Bible isn't that of a 'super human' posture that shields you from every unpleasant experience.
It's this simple reality: "We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us." (2 Corinthians 4:7). That is, God using men of like PASSIONS AND TRIALS to do extraordinary things. That Paul after being stoned and beaten, could walk into another city and minister healing to the sick, with many other mighty miracles.
Oh, the excellency of God's power!
_MEDITATION:_
*Ministers who paint an untouchable, larger-than-life picture of themselves are simply exaggerating their experiences, and that gives their hearers a false expectation of what their Christian experience ought to be.*
