Renew that VICTIM mindset!
"oh i sin BECAUSE my friend told me to do it."
"i didn't serve God BECAUSE my parents don't want me to do it."
"i never read the bible and pray BECAUSE i got to wake up very early for school and my teacher give me alot of homework."
"i am stumbled BECAUSE my neighbor did something that i am not comfort with."
Are you a victim of circumstances?
Recently i watched the Singapore Idol and there was this part where the people are place before the judges for the 2nd time to plead for themselves the reason why they should be given a second chance.
They were all given an equal period of time to prepare and to practice before the contest. but yet when they stood before the judge and failed to deliver results like others do, they gave 'reasons' for themselves.
"I forgot the lyrics BECAUSE i was too nervous."
"Can i be given the 2nd chance BECAUSE i chose the wrong song."
"I was not prepared BECAUSE i was not feeling well this morning."
What is true in the natural is also true in the supernatural. Just like the spiritual world. God gave all of us time on earth to prepare our fruit to stand before Him on the last day. but yet when they stood before the Judge and failed to deliver their fruit like others did, they blame it on the situation they were in; the people God placed in their lives etc.
"my wife You gave me, did not allow me to serve in full time."
"my parents stop me from going for cell group."
"the leader You placed in my life, caused me to be stumbled."
"i am born into a less wealthy family, that's why i was not about to give my tithe."
"i am born to be less intellectual than my friends and siblings, so i got to depend more on my own strength to study more, so i cannot come to church."
"from young i was sexually abused, so i grew up living a lose life."
Do you know what was the remarks of the judge in Singapore Idol to all the reasons they gave?
"Why can't you all just admit that you screw up?"
If so, what do you think will be God's responses to all our excuses?
Why can't we just humble ourselves to say that we are wrong and we will change?
Is God not more concern of your character than your comfort?
Did not the Bible says that, obedience is better than sacrifice?
STEP OUT of your VICTIM mindset!
Renewing of our mind, through the word of God, brings forth FAITH for breakthrough!
Someone ever told me this:
"The different between a believer and a non-believer is NOT that we do not sin, but its that, even if we do, we take RESPONSIBILITY of the mistake we made."
