MY TEACHER
You are welcome to this awesome interview panel, where we will be revealing some fact about unstoppable progress in life. So many get to certain point and their destiny was totally destroyed. Some get to a point and couldn’t move to the next level. Very many individuals and congregation had taken steps that brought them doom. Some have received counsels that cancel their great future (destiny in Christ). Some followed some mentor wholly and end up in total confusion. God has packages for you at every stage of your life, God has a lot of goodies for you on earth, some will remain unscratched (sealed and not opened) without this all time needed truth contained in this awesome edition of Voices From Zion Titled; My Teacher: John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Let’s Start By Looking At Confusion It’s not knowing what or how to solve a given problem. When an individual doesn’t know what else to do or get the answer anticipated for. When your destiny is brought under a terrible attack and all way out seem blocked. If you give a mathematical equation meant for tertiary student to an elementary school pupil he will be confused because he recognises the numbers but doesn’t know how to solve the equation. A five year old girl may be able to read any book but very incapacitated to represent a professor in a meeting. Once you need it and you don’t know how to get it, then you will be confused. The place of teacher in our life is very important and cannot be rule out.
Biblical Teachers: This are the categories of teacher that bible recognizes.
Parents: Parent are commanded to train up their children in the way they have discovered that the child should go. Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverb 22:6
Parent can foresee for their children and train them according to what has been shown about each child they have. Children are not to grow and become what they like but mostly what God has communicated to the parents. Children should be trained according to the heavenly pattern given to the parents. Children will do well if they are trained according to God’s master plan for them. Every parent should see their children as God’s assignment. Some teach their children according to their selfish desire or their own future view which will truncate the comfort of that child, which is one of the reasons we have so many rich people but uncomfortable in the society today. What some parents does unknowingly is putting their child/children in the midst of battle that will end them. The story of a successful banker who had made it big in banking industry, but she wasn’t comfortable. After listening to a message on the person and power of Holy Spirit, she desire of the Lord in prayers to know what to do. The Holy Spirit led her to go into sowing clothes, she quit the banking Job and today her fashion house is international. So many are living an off purpose life because their parent or guardian misses it. Proverbs 127:3 children aren’t property but blessing of the Lord. Psalm 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Our world will be a better place to live in if each Christian parents takes up their responsibility to train up their child according to God’s design. We can imagine that Moses was trained to know that he was an Hebrew and that they have a God called the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob Exodus 2:6-10. What can we say about Samuel who was trained in the temple of God? 1Samuel 1:20-28. When Jesus was a child, the Bible said this about him and his parent: And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart. Luke 2:51
- Masters: Masters are teachers, they train, instruct and scourge at atimes. Masters are important to everyone that is yearning for breakthrough. In some parts of the world today; you can learn trading, handiwork and artisan jobs from a particular person as an apprentice, same thing happens in the gospel. There are Masters, Mentors and Fathers in the body of Christ Colossians 3:22, Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God: Galatians 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you, 1Timothy 1:2,18 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord. * This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; *To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. 2nd Timothy 1:2. Master in the faith should take heed to training, train by words and examples. 1Peter 5:3 It’s easier for followers to take to the steps taken by their masters than taking to their words. Masters, mentors and fathers should know the strength of their apprentice and don’t push your Uriah into the midst of battles he can’t handle as David did in 2nd Samuel 11: 14-17 Above all, the greatest of all teachers that shows, teaches and comfort us is
THE HOLY SPIRIT
Our Parents, Masters, Mentors and Fathers are all limited but the Holy Spirit is unlimited. Our teachers can teach and instruct us based on their discoveries but only the Holy Spirit can show us mysteries. Deeper mysteries can only be communicated to us by the Holy Spirit. Even when the needed people are not there or not fulfilling their roles in our life the Holy Spirit is right there if we allow him. The Holy Spirit can reveal to you the joy that awaits you tomorrow today. Let’s look at some Biblical attributes of the Holy Spirit.
- The Comforter: He comforts us, if not for his comforts some Christian would have turned back from the faith and believe that they are been fooled by believing in the coming back of our Lord Jesus Christ. When troubled, he comforts us by the word of his righteousness and reassured us of divine presence with us in trouble. Psalm 46:1-11says God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. *Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; *Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. *There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. *God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. *The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. *The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. *Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth. *He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. *Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. *The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.
When the Holy Spirit grant you access to mysteries and assurance, you won’t be able hold back your joy. Holy Spirit comforts you by showing you the glory that lies ahead. Hebrew 12:1-2 with the Holy Spirit, you are always joyful.
- The Teacher: let him be your major teacher because every man is limited and may mislead you in their down time. The Holy Spirit can teach you the failure proof ways on how to go about any aspect of your life, be it business, social or even spiritual, he’s the most reliable and dependable helper. The Holy Spirit will teach you to gain, with him no loss but without him major losses. You need the Holy Spirit because he will teach you on how best to relate with people in your life, be it those you take instruction from or those you instruct. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of wisdom that guides on what to speak and how to do a particular thing but he won’t force himself on you.
- Power Within: If you grieved him, he may desert you and you will be empty. He’s the one that emboldens us against all satanic harassment and empower us to stand and win in battles of life but if he deserts you, you become defenceless and Don’t grieve him. Matthew 12:31-37 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men… Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
The Holy Spirit is the power within a believer which has capacity to remind you things you need at the very time you need them. 1Corithians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. with the Holy Spirit within you, you are a mystery and you will always command mastery. I decree from today, you shall be fearless in Jesus name.
RELATING WITH YOUR TEACHERS:
- Allow them to teach, some are too high minded to learn, they are inaccessible holding their head high and not teachable. Be teachable if you want to change class and be a better person than you are. Proverbs 4:1-4 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. *For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. *For I was my father’s son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. *He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
- Ask Questions: Job cried and said That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. Job 34:32. David also enquires from God and got what to do, he does it and overtook his enemies and recovered all they took away 1 Samuel 30:1-31 but in Act 1:26 when the disciple of Jesus Christ cast lots they got the wrong person.
