At the beginning of 2019, while preachers were prophesying to their diverse audience, one pastor’s prophecy wasn’t welcomed with excitement by his audience.
Grabbing the mic he screamed
“in 2019, you shall reap what you sow…!”
The place was quiet. He said
“I know you heard me. You shall reap what you sow…!”
The congregation was uncomfortable with the ‘prophecy’.
They wanted something else; something more appealing to the ears. But that man was only quoting scriptures (Gal. 6:7).
People don’t even want to know if what was proclaimed the previous year came to pass or not. They don’t want to ask themselves questions regarding ‘failed prophecies’. They just love the forceful sound of
‘…this year, you shall …’
without paying close attention to what roles they have to play.
Furthermore, if your love for the ‘AMENs’ is greater than your willingness to take responsibility for yourself, you’re likely trapped in a circle of December-January disappointment and ambitions.
Adults ask questions; children’s gullibility questions nothing. This is a sign a majority is not ‘grown up’ in spiritual matters. It takes more than feeling good to have a great year. Someone, somewhere has to be responsible for something, if someone must have a great year.
