Check and Confirm

The Lord is training me these days in my character. I have been taking so many things for granted and of late, the Lord is exposing me that I may learn and be perfected in my words and deeds.

A checklist was sent to me before traveling to Bangkok for LMA fellowship and ITERO. But I did not pay heed to it assuming I knew what needed to be taken. For instance, I should have taken Universal Converter, Umbrellas etc. But later, I found I did not take these items, though not very important. The Lord used this opportunity to expose me of not being serious. He even convicted me in my conscience that led me to repentance and prayer that I may always check and confirm before proceeding for anything further.

If I am not trained in my character, in small things, never will I be useful to God. Every minute detail of my living and service must be touched by the Lord and must pass through the dealing of the cross, then and only then, I can be useful to Him. Lord, make me such a one.

Even as a company would go through all the checklists of production procedures before marketing a product, and even rectifying any defect discovered later on, to keep the company afloat and successful, so much more, as a Christian I must be trained to check and confirm any matters or things to be a fruitful and useful vessel to the Lord. 

Here in Bangkok, the Lord’s shining and speaking enlightened me. I could see myself where I am; far away from where I should be. This brought me to turn to the Lord genuinely, looking for His grace that I may learn what I need to learn, lessons of life, lesson by lesson. Meetings like this where many brothers come together for conference and blending under the speaking of the Lord is of a great help to me. What a blessing that I am in the Lord’s recovery! What a mercy, what a grace! Thank you Lord!
