The first reason is <u>Ignorance<\/u>, and the second reason is <u>Brokenness<\/u>; the generational wickedness or brokenness of the world is perpetrated in those lives. Sometimes, it has nothing to do with you. For instance, someone else driving recklessly can hit your brand-new car. It is not because you have a curse on you. It is simply someone else\u2019s problem that you now have to deal with,<!--more--> that is how the world is. And when such things happen, it can hinder the full spectrum of S\u00f5z\u00f5. Nevertheless, God\u2019s deliverance is sure.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/111\/JER.31.29.NIV\"> Jeremiah 31:<\/a><sup>29<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/sup>\u201c<em>In those days people will no longer say, \u2018The parents\u00a0have eaten sour grapes,\u00a0and the children\u2019s teeth are set on edge<\/em>.\u2019 (NIV). Everyone that eats the sour grapes, their teeth will be set on the edge, not coming to you.<\/p>\n<p>The third reason we don\u2019t see the fullness of S\u00f5z\u00f5 in our lives is <strong><u>Faithlessness<\/u><\/strong>. Hebrews 4:<sup>1<\/sup> \u201c<em>God\u2019s promise of entering his rest still stands, so we ought to tremble with fear that some of you might fail to experience it<\/em>.\u201d Rest in this scripture means the fullness that God\u2019s salvation brings, S\u00f5z\u00f5. God\u2019s promise of entering the fullness of S\u00f5z\u00f5 still stands. However, God is saying that some believers might fail to experience it. The Book of Hebrews was written to believers that were Jews. So, it is possible to be saved and not enter into God\u2019s rest. It is possible to be a child of God and not enter into God\u2019s fullness. What will make you enter into it is what God is teaching you in this season. You need to get rid of ignorance. Know that you can triumph over the brokenness.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/HEB.4.2.NLT\">Hebrews 4:<sup>2<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<em>For this good news\u2014that God has prepared this rest\u2014has been announced to us just as it was to them. But it did them no good because they didn\u2019t share the faith of those who listened to God<\/em>.\u201d It is possible to be in a place and not share the faith of the people in that place. Take finances for instance, people are getting into their finances early this year. If you share the faith you will come into it, if you do not, you would not. The King James Version of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/1\/HEB.4.2.KJV\">Hebrews 4:2<\/a> puts it this way, <em>\u201c\u2026but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.<\/em>\u201d They heard it, they could not enter into the rest, they could not enter into the fullness of S\u00f5z\u00f5 (of wholeness), why? They probably said, \u2018Pastor is at it again, he is just telling us nice things that tickle our ears\u2019. If you do not take it personally and mix it with faith, it is not going to work. That is what the Word of God says.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: Father, flood my heart with light and eliminate ignorance, empower me to rise above the brokenness of the world, and strengthen my faith, in Jesus Mighty Name.
