Rev. 2012
“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God, and the books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which where written in the books.
2cor. 5V10
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether good or bad”.
When we stand before the God of all flesh, all our gifts, our talents, our special grace, our special anointing will be removed from us, leaving only our character.
To what extent has the engrafted word of truth reformed your character? The bible says in "Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; .... To what extent has the blood of Jesus purged you from dead works to serve the living God, To what extent have you been CONVERTED from your old ways because of the conviction that you are a sinner, the remorse that you offended your creator and the determination to consciously live your life to please him all the days of your life. These are some of the basis for judgment for the saints.
The measuring parameter will be the fruit of Holy Spirit, not the gifts . How much fruit do you bear from your genuine character that makes up YOU?
How much of the likeness of Christ do you have that qualifies you to bear the name CHRISTIAN?
If you can honestly answer these questions to yourself and amend your life, you may have saved yourself some embarrassment that is waiting for many children of God on that great day.
YOUR ASSIGNMENT
From the book of Revelation, we find out that there are books that are opened apart from the book of life.
There are things that were written concerning you that you would come to fulfill before the world began. You are a fulfillment of a destiny which God ordained from the foundation of the world. You are not just a product of pleasure between your father and your mother; you are not an accident in creation.
Psalm 139:14-16, 18 NLT
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous-how well I know it. [15] You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. [16] You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. [18] I can't even count them; they out number the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!
When you finish from this side of eternity, you would have either fulfilled your destiny or you have only wasted your time. Jesus, our master, found out what was written concerning himself at the beginning of His ministry.
Luke 4:17 -18 and there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah and when he opened the book he found the place where it was written--
Many of us don’t get to find out what is written concerning us, so in our walk with God, we find no fulfillment, no lasting results. We are busy walking in disobedience, we find ourselves copying other saints, emulating other believers and trying to be like them.
Some of us are busy copying others because we see them having result in their assignments, some are just following the vision of their local assembly even when in their spirit they don’t believe it or even understand it, but because of what others will say! Remember, when God called you, He called you alone! When you die to stand before Him to give account of your stewardship, you will stand alone, therefore, listen to God alone.
Let us be humble enough to ask God to show us what is written concerning us; for out of that book, we will be judged. Some of us are deceived by our talents and gifts, some by popular opinions or by the vision of our General Overseer, Bishop/ Set Man, Pastor or papa and you lose your own identity. Jesus died as YOU, not FOR YOU. He died as YOU so that you may live As HIM, to fulfill His purpose which was written before you were formed in your mother’s womb.
Rom 8:29-30 For whom He did fore-know He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His son ------
----- (you did not get born again by accident) Moreover, whom He did predestinate, them He also called, and whom He called, them He also justified, and whom He justified, them He also glorified. It is never a struggle. Ps. 65:4. “Blessed is the man who thou choose! And cause to approach unto thee-----
Because He called you, your assignment is written in a book out of which you shall be judged. Find out from the Holy Spirit what your assignment is or you will waist your few years running on a wrong track.
Some of us are written in the book of those who will receive revelation and accurate direction for the saints. You are busy doing church work in your local assembly to please your pastor simply because they said you are a very good committed brother, the pastor will recommend you to a good sister. Some of us have the ministry of Barnabas, Son of encouragement and our duty is not to be known, but to introduce the Paul’s of the end time to the church, encourage him to come out of hiding and fulfill his ministry to the saints. Acts 11:25-26.
You remain in your church judging such generals who are still in the hiding, be ready to give account.
These are all written in the book of your assignment out of which you will be judged. It is written that Jesus was tempted in all points so that He
