Change The Changing Church
by A. Joshua Adedeji
₦16,366In the world today, a couple of nations exist with tremendous power and influence among committee of nations.
Nations like United States of America, Germany, Russia, Japan and Great Britain among others; are influential in all spheres, causing other nations to respect and honour them dearly. They are nations with proven technologies, human and financial capital base, which often pose tremendous threats to other developing nations.
Unarguably, ambassadors of these countries are as a matter of rule; men and women of power and authority, with considerable spheres of influence. Age, sex and reputation notwithstanding, ambassadors of these nations are treated with great respect and honour by their host nations.
In fact, the stature and calibre of the host nation’s leader notwithstanding, these ambassadors must be informed before gaining access into their nations. I mean feelings and prejudices notwithstanding, the permission or approval of these ambassadors must be sought before anyone from their host countries can gain access into the nations represented by the ambassadors.
Therefore, these ambassadors are people of honour, dignity, authority and life. They are men and women envied by many; yet, no one is permitted by the law to do them harm. They (in conjunction with other ambassadors of nations) enjoy what is referred to as “Diplomatic Immunity”. They are invariably above the law of their host nations; although, not above their own national laws.
Fortunately, we happen to belong to a special class; a class far higher, honourable, prestigious, secure, peaceful and fulfilling than the class of the ambassadors of nations mentioned earlier. You are indeed a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy people, God’s own special people that are destined to proclaim (show forth) the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9).
I have not mentioned all that to flatter you; perhaps, you have not been noticing them about yourself or in yourself; however, this book is written by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit of God, to help you see yourself as whom you are and as whom you are destined to be.
A prince might not at the moment see himself as a royalty or a royal person; but as soon as he is crowned, all his self-concept and self-worth will be revised and fully updated. You may not see yourself now as a prince or princess; but do not worry – that is the essence of this piece; for soon, not too long from now, as you begin to explore and digest the revealed mysteries of this book; you will begin to live your life in the reality of an influential king in Jesus name.
Indeed, a major baton has been handed over to us; it is enviable, royal, powerful, impactful and full of responsibilities. I therefore trust God that He will give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know, what the hope of His for your calling is.
As you read this book, may your eyes be opened to the gold mines in it, and may God Himself help you to take good advantage of the treasure in your hand.
