Christians are
God’s representatives on earth. We defend the course of heaven on earth. That
is why we were given the Lord’s Prayer; “…Your will be done on earth as in
heaven…” It means, Christians are responsible with the fine tuning the earthly
environment into a type of heavenly arena.
Therefore wherever
Christians find themselves, they should remember to focus on doing God’s will
there. For instance, if a Christian is found in an educational institution, he
should employ himself into a ministry of transforming the working force and reshaping
the learning discipline of students. As kingdom citizens we should portray
heavenly manners to duty and responsibility.
Recently, I have
been seeking God’s favour for the taste of heaven in my earth form. This
earthen vessel needs a heavenly touch on a constant basis to be able to contain
a substantial content for miracles. Without the heavenly endowed ability, the
earthly effort will be characterized by insurmountable degree of pains,
disappointments and struggles.
Ministers of the
gospel in many quarters are faced with unfulfilled ministries; and yet they are
not ready to pay the prize for a change. They keep complaining for lack of
financial support and other necessities for a successful and effective work.
But the earth will never be in contact with heaven as long as the people of God
do not desire it and make the necessary effort to possess it. Experiencing the
heaven’s touch requires a constant reach from us; that is always found in the
place of intercession where the Holy Spirit is employed in helping us out of
our infirm conditions.
Mark 1:10 “And
immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the
Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.”
