โYou are ENOUGHโ A three-word sentence your ears wouldn’t itch to hear but listen, drink that up! Your soul needs it.
Oh, you’re welcome๐
Do you know that God doesn’t see you as an individual but as a nation?! Whoops!๐คญ A whole nation!
Some of your thought process after reading that: โNations?๐ณ how is that even possible? Does anyone even know me? no one knows my family, we aren’t even all that๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ nations ke?! (Smirks face) Please shift.โ
Exactly! I expected that reaction from some of us. Mary gave that exact reaction when she realised she was carrying the saviour of the world, how convenient?
Mary: โ๐ฒ How can this be?! I am a virgin for heaven’s sake! I have not been with any man, I mean, even if I was supposed to give birth to someone, who am I to give birth to the saviour of the world?โ
Pause fam.
You see, what Mary did not know was that right inside of her was a seed yielding to that prophecy. She didn’t look like the mother of the saviour of the world but heck yeah, she was! (Dey no dey write am for face)
Most of the time your reality will negate your identity- Don’t lose touch, hold onto the convictions of your identity even stronger! There’d come a season of alignment.
Come with me, darling,
See 1st Peter 2:9 says โ But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy NATION, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:โ
But you are a chosen generation, a holy nation!
Look at yourself now, look around you. Do you look like it? Your answer would probably be a Yes or No. That’s fine.
But that doesn’t alter the fact that there’s a seed in you growing into the manifestation of that prophecy.
โIni wait! this is a bit too much, I mean if this is in the light you’re coming from then I do not deserve to be called a chosen generation.
I mean, do you know my past? Hehe! Do you know my struggles?๐ญ Do you know that I struggle with masturbation? with lying? I’m struggling with jealousy for Christ’s sake, how then can I be chosen to show forth the praises of God๐ญ how?โ
Fair enough dear.
You see? We’ve been called, we’ve been chosen, there’s absolutely nothing we would have done to get us qualified. This isn’t some interview where there’s a particular skill a company or firm is looking out for in a person, this is God we are talking about. His love is unconditional! There are always vacancies in him. All you need to do is believe and yield to him!
Jesus came, paid our debt in full and because you believe, you are qualified darling.
You think God is oblivious to those struggles? He is aware! And that’s why he said that he has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light! He has called you out of that place. You think he’d stop loving you regardless? Not a second dear!
We do not become like him in a day, the more we yield to him the more he strips off everything that does not look like him in our lives so we can look like him!
Oh that you would see yourself the way Christ sees you, in his eyes, in his lens, then you’d come to an irrevocable knowing that โYou’re enough!โ
There’s is a NATION tied to you, to your obedience.
You’ve got more than what it takes!
You’re ENOUGH child!
