It’s a thing of great excitement when a person is honoured. It brings social respect to the person and his family at large. Honour is what everyone should have; the question is how is honour received?
Looking into our immediate society, people who are
honoured are those who have done a thing or two to help a different party
(ranging from an individual to a large society even a country). Such acts are
sacrificial, not a must but he/she has decided take it upon himself/herself to
perform such task, example were acts by mother Teresa and the likes. We all
desire to be honoured, having our name imprinted with Gold.
The switch of honour is turned on by discovery. The
discovery of a problem and finding a solution to it, next to these is the risk
of success or failure. Anyone who identifies a problem and seeks its solution
will be honoured, irrespective of his willingness to be honoured.
There was a man named Joseph. He was a slave sold to a
distance land, a land where he knew no one. Weak and helpless he was, but he
never stopped to discover what the needs around him to be met. Even as a slave
he was diligent and he grew in rank till he was at the top.
Eventually his sense of discovery was soon widely
recognized. He discovered a way to store 7 years harvest (Imagine a person like
that in a developing country like Nigeria). This was very helpful, for it saved
an entire country and his neighbouring countries. And for these he was honoured,
70days mourning of a country for his father dead (a slave father dead). Honour
is pleasurable but the secret most be learned.
How do we learn to discover and uncover the way-out? The
secret is Meditation, meditation that lead to closure to divine power. There is
a world beyond this one and when we meditate we connect to him or some might say
a power we tap into when we meditate.
Meditation is the emptying or concentration of one’s
minds either for spiritual purpose, relaxation etc. This enhances our natural
intellect and makes it easy for us to discover the root of problems and their
solution. Our purpose of existence is for a purpose and it has to be
discovered. No one is made a slave without honour but our failure to meditate
is the problem.
Now we have Jesus a helper at all time, come strength or
weakness. Meditating on Jesus is the key to true discovery. He helps not just
for discovery but gives an assurance which is in success, eternal life and
glory, with peace, joy all in abundance.
Every soul is incomplete without discovery of one’s
purpose; It a form of emptiness, a void. But even after discovering ones
purpose, there must be an assurance that there is a reward or at least a
personal desire satisfaction. Jesus knows all and he is for us all. Cling to
him and he will fill your emptiness and met your needs also.
He created us and he wants nothing in return. Believe
Jesus and meditate on his goodness you will see and see clearly. And he will honour
himself in you. For as God glorified himself in Jesus; Jesus will glorify
himself you and I. All glory and honour belongs to God and he gives it freely.
Call honour today
Call glory
Call Jesus
