Price Tag

Lu.11:⁹ [NIV] “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ¹⁰ For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened”

So many people just sit around waiting for breakthroughs. Can I tell you a secret? Every time you are waiting for a breakthrough, your breakthrough is waiting for you. Every time you are waiting for favour, your favour is waiting for you. People are waiting for open doors; God wants you to get up and break down the door. If you knock and the door does not open, break it down! And that is God’s heart revealed to us in the parables in Luke 11.

There is a price to pay. You know that preferred future that you have envisioned for yourself, that same one that God Himself has told you about? It comes with a price tag on it. Any future that you are not able to pay for, you are not able to attain. If you cannot pay the price, you cannot have it. God is not a respecter of persons; if you can pay the price, you can have it. My message to you today is, pay the price, become worthy, roll up your sleeves, get on your knees, and pay the price. Pay the price and obtain the certification.

Imagine a parent shows up before the university admissions board insisting that his child must be given admission because the child is favoured. The child in question has not even graduated from primary school but the parent insists that because the child is anointed for favour, the child must be admitted. What do you think would happen to that parent? So how come we expect that from life? A lot of people are still in primary school but are insisting on hanging out with the people in university. They may be gracious to let you hang out and perhaps even take you on an excursion but after that you would have to go back.

Yes, you are favored but are you worthy? You have to be worthy. It is sad to come across Christians that think that they do not need to prove their worth. God wants you to be worthy. The fact that God has called you is not enough. We get so consumed with the fact that God has called us. God may have called you to ministry or to that profession or to that business. Your call is not enough. 2Pet.1:¹⁰ [KJV] “Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall”

Prayer: Holy Spirit, please show me what I must do to be worthy of the next level God has for me and help me give due diligence to it, in Jesus Name. Amen!
