Submission and Loyalty… Christian Leadership!

Don’t mistake loyalty for submission dear leader. Please don’t

That the man is always at your bid and call or always available and his very reliable does not mean he has submitted unto you. Oh yes, it doesn’t. Although, when we look at submission it fully entails loyalty but you can be loyal to an authority that you have not submitted to. The simplest analysis is that of an armed kidnapper and her victim!

The word “loyalty” does not even appear in the King James Version, but its principles are certainly taught in the Bible pages, and there are plenty of examples of it shown. Besides that, the word “faithful” comes very close in meaning to the term “loyalty.”

One of the reasons the King James translators did not use the word may be because there is no word in the Hebrew or Greek languages that exactly fits the English word “loyal” or “loyalty.” It is just not precise enough, so they just used the word “faithful.”
According to Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, it says: “The more immediate roots of loyal are in the Latin language from the word legalis, from which comes our word legal. From the Latin it was absorbed into the Old French as leial, and then the English-speaking people saw benefits to using it, so they added it to the English language as loyal.”
You should be able to begin to see that the word’s roots clearly show that “loyalty” has definite ties to meeting duties or obligations to persons or conditions to which one feels legally bound. Please do well to understand the word feels. It is not a word used to describe a stable situation or condition!

But Submission on the other hand is an act of freewill obedience irrespective of the cost, Jesus prayed; my father let this cup pass over me but then He quickly added not as I wish but that thy will be done. When you are submitted to, you don’t use strength to enforce obedience. No way. Your follower will patiently do the needful to the best of her capacity requiring little or no supervision. She doesn’t correct your leadership styles, she only adjust how she follow you… Just because she has submitted herself wholeheartedly to your leadership.

Ephesians 6:5-8 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ. Not with eye-service as men-pleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men; Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man does, the same shall he receive of the Lord whether he be bond or free.

That above placed verse of the scripture perfectly explains what submission is.

I want you to notice the phrase “masters according to the flesh.” This phrase implies that the disciple or the civil subject, in reality has at least two masters. In this context, a physical one, and a spiritual one. The physical one is his human discipler. The spiritual one is Jesus Christ.

Again, it is the same circumstance as the wife in relation to her husband.

God’s instruction is that the physical one is to be given deference as if he were the spiritual one, again with the one caveat—we are not to allow them to drag us into disobedience. Otherwise, our subjection is to be thorough.

Dear great Leader, stop striving and getting mad with that brother rather go back to your kneels, re-examine your leadership ethics, check it out yourself… Are you submitted to any authority yourself? Remember, you can’t reap what you did not sow!

Another terrible mistake leaders of today make a lot could simply be tagged as costly assumption! The rudiments of leadership has so much overshadowed them that when they meet anybody they judge and class the person has their subordinate immediately without verifying what the person knows, his capacity and his quarry site (training ground). Dear leader, please stop it… You are only making a mockery of yourself because it won’t take long before the newbie discover you in full force and am sure you know what the result will be!

Let me quickly remind you, the opposite of submission is defiant or imbalance. Repulsive defiance.

Be wise enough to know that he appears gentle and unkempt does not mean he his actually gentle or unkempt. Be wise.
Let me drop my pen here. We all need people to attend to us in all ramification but we must need be much more than careful as we go about it.

Greater Grace unto you,

Your brother and friend,
The Certain Apostle!

How do you attend to people you can’t help?

Dear friend,

Am writing to remind you of the consequences of your acts today. A day of reckoning will come sooner or later and the recipients of these decisions you made today will review the effects of your actions on them. Very true.

Of course, they would have outgrown their present predicaments and could have been favoured so much by the Unchangeable Changer that you might even be in need of their assistance…. Hmmmnnn, don’t doubt me, they would remember how you treated them today!

And even if you tell them you are #so sorry for your acts, am not too sure that it would change the #story in their mind!

Please be sure to have checked the “pros” and “cons” of your actions before implementing them today, for there is a tomorrow.

Your brother and friend,
The Certain Apostle.

Words of prayer: You shall enjoy a powerful testimony that will change your address from the needy to the needed.

I don’t know how long you have been at that testimony waiting room, Am sent to you now… MAJEMU IGBEDIDE yoo beewo nikiakia!!!

Relationship corner.

Must I change?

With a tear filled eyes, Kemisola slammed the door after Samuel, following Him to the bedroom, all she could mutter out from her tears filled mouth is Must I change? This act have been with me from my childhood. After all you met and proposed to me like this!

Dear reader, what is your opinion?

We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are! Alot of us hate change especially when it comes to our relationships but change is the only thing that guarantee and bring growth! We all want a better world but hardly do we think about changing ourselves.

Uncle Mr. Always right, Aunty Miss he should understand, is he not a man? Max DePree advised, ‘When you can’t change the direction of the wind, please change the direction of your sails.’ Change should first and foremost begin with you and not with her or him!

Permit me to speak using a military tone… ‘the longer a person is in error, the surer he is that he’s right and the lesser he is open to change! Defending your faults and errors with excuses and allegations only proves that you have no intention of changing or quitting them!

Success and growth are unlikely though you might derive joy from it if you always do things the way you’ve always done them!

To be the best, you must experience change, to be favoured, you must experience change – ‘the road to success is always under construction!’ Non-acceptance of your present creates a future. It is better to be pruned than to be cut, dried and allowed to burn. Finally we all need much more than one reason to change, we all need an understanding heart to assist us change our bad traits. We all need atleast a reason to change the season!

Human; The Complex Being Part 3.

Epileptic Sexual Life

Sacred and unbelievable it maybe; it would surprise you to know that victims of spiritual spouses gets easily irritated by their hobbies and their sexual life is often pissful. Although they do not enjoy their spiritual husbands or wives yet they have little or no pleasure with their human partners, they are often insatiable! Frustrated as they are, they capitalize on the little fault of their human partners to break off from the hook of the relationship. Somebody is saying “No wonder, Rita told me she was done with the relationship without any just cause!”

It must be noted that their acts, frustrations and irritations are strongly not their doings but powered by their spiritual counterparts in a bit to force their human friends off the relationship. This is usually a very compulsory part played by all Spirit beings especially when they sense danger. A lady who has just reached climax in her dreams or lone world can never enjoy the sexual acts no matter how much the husband tries in the real world.

Spiritual beings: antagonists of peace when confronted!

In many cases, it has been reported that physical spouses are rendered barren, maimed or killed in all ramification! Dear reader, do you sense any of these things? Delay is dangerous, mind you distance is not a barrier to the moves of FAITH, your own unique help and testimony is just a moment away as you take actions by contacting The Certain Apostle on +234 7038970807 or mail him @ olukayodeabel@gmail.com. Restoration of lost virtues is assured!

Human; The Complex Being Part 2.

Sequential to the first part, I must not fail to talk about the different beliefs of people. Some believe Human are first and foremost spirit beings settled and stabilised in the spiritual realm before journeying to planet earth to have a first hand encounter of the human experience. This thesis points to the fact that all human on planet earth are sojourners who have families and are already settled in heaven. This thesis is faultable, if all human are already settled in the spiritual realm why does the spirit beings only affect some and neglect others? Why don’t we all have spiritual spouses? Your opinions are welcome dear reader!

On the other hand there are beliefs that human are beings created by the Creator, destined to die and to be judged by the same creator of their deeds on earth. This thesis on its own condemns the belief of a pre-existing family but upholds the fact that all human are created human and would die as human although the belief also establishes the fact that the composition of all human are in three parts namely: the spirit, the soul and the body!

Now dear reader, what would you say about the existence of the spirit beings, who to some are husbands and to others, wives! Oh somebody is asking about their modus operandi, they operate more effectively when their victims are alone or betterstill when they sense dangers!

For more information and solutions on Spiritual beings, please contact the Certain Apostle on +2347038970807 or mail him @ olukayodeabel@gmail.com. Delay is dangerous.

Human; The Complex being.

Of all the creature created by the Creator,human tends to be at risks of invasion by spiritual beings. A lady in her late 30’s is frustrated in her relationships, she is asking herself, what more do they want from me? A man in is mid 40’s is rejected by all those he appreciates without any just cause. All this happens to alot of human beings. Infact it has lead many to depression and the causes are generally hidden.

Here is the good news; a problem identified is almost solved! Many human are twined to spiritual beings; these beings come visiting during sleep, when their victims are alone among other times.

With the affluence of this beings, their victims are isolated from any human who tries to play the roles they act (the spirit beings role) on their victims.

Been a problem that affects a large number of the public, there have been different solutions from different sources on this known epidemic although some curb the acts of the Spirit beings, others expose the victims to more dangerous tortures by the spirit beings!

Alas, there is a sui generis solution to this problem.

Contact the Certain Apostle on +2347038970807 or on olukayodeabel@yahoo.com. for more information and prompt attention. You must fulfill purpose! Glory.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
