The Lord says, ask for the nations for your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession. Thou shall break them with a rod of iron, you shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel (Psalm 2:7-12).
Certain individuals have been chosen for this special task. They have endured God’s fiery furnace a minimum of seven times. They claim the Lord’s inheritance as their own, aiming to present that crown to our King.
I personally defend my beliefs in life and do not act in a way that goes against them. I refuse to compromise the essence of the Lord that resides in me. It took me a while to grasp the lessons of love until I embodied love. I recently had an opportunity to meet some of God’s believers. Before the meeting, I was given a message by the Lord: ‘Don’t allow anyone to take your crown’. The person who opposed the message that I brought arrived and interrupted me by speaking over me and cutting me off.
His lack of awareness about my commitment to fight for what is right worked against him. What emerged from me was the iron rod that shattered the potter’s vessel. Without uttering a single word, the man exited the room.
Over time, we encounter individuals who dominate, talk over, and control conversations. These individuals shaped me to be as strong and inflexible as iron. I lost the ability to be merciful towards those who were not behaving properly. After this encounter, I found a new way to express love to these people - with mercy. Placing the last building block on my self-love foundation was a personal milestone.
Absorb the wisdom that love can offer. Show love to your neighbour just like you would to yourself. Practice forgiveness towards your enemies and include them in your prayers. Embrace the unlovable with love and show mercy to all people. Men, treat your wives with the same love you have for yourself. If your wives are feeling downtrodden, you’re not providing the best for yourself or your wife.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13:13).
