Why is it that when we use the term “I’m confused” in one statement, then, in the next one “well if you do this, or do that then you’ll find what you’re looking for” ? How do you expect them to get a clear understanding when you’re telling them ramblings of a confused person’s mind? The definition of confusion is: disorder, upheaval; tumult; chaos. So now that you can see, do you want someone to give you some instructions without understanding? I think not. The Bible puts it this way “The blind leading the blind, they will both fall into a ditch..” (Luke 6:39)
Let’s turn to John 8:43-47:
43 “Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47 He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.”
When you talk, sing, walk (saint’s walk of life), pray, think, then everything you say and do will always have a hint of confusion in the midst of topics or comments. Then every statement that a confused person says becomes a subjugated infused statement.
That’s why the word says in Colossians 4:5-6:
5 “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. 6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.”
You may ask, why is this? Why should we not be so quick to speak and give a person the answer they want? Well, the Word says “be quick to listen and slow to speak…” (James 1:19) because you don’t know what words of subjugation you may utter out of your mouth.
Let’s read Luke 6:45-46:
45 “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. 46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?”
You’ll know the things you are supposed to walk through and do in life as a child of God. You should be led by the Holy Ghost which leads you by the men of God who have been placed in your life.
Let’s read James 1:19-22:
19 “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God 21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
Also read Jeremiah 3:14-15:
14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: 15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
You can’t lean on your own understanding, be that it could lead you to lust, fighting, and all types of debauchery, and seeking teachers after your own flesh.
Lastly, let’s read James 4:1-8:
1 “From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.”
As the true men of Yeshua Jesus, is not to impress, but to educate and bring clarity to your soul, plus your life. In my conclusion, every life on earth has a purpose and a mission.
Thank you.
