Day 18-12 Agendas for a Star that you are

Day 18- 12 Agendas for a passionate STAR.

I recall that on my 44th birthday, I was in my car driving from outside London with my wife. Suddenly thoughts of the significance of that year dawned on me. 

As I allowed myself to take in the joy of the day and connect with God, He began to ask me to write down the following, which I quickly scibbled down. I titled it My Fanta hallmarks of an achiever. 44 of them. I used the word Fanta for its brightness and colour. It dazed even me. 

Looking back at the notes just close to 7 (symbolic for its fullness) years after, on Wednesday, it would be 7years since...and still in an atmosphere of unbelievable anointing that descended on us in church yesterday, I asked God what's it that I have done to deserve such a privilege. With no bible college training or time under a systematic tutoring at a seminary, I felt, God has to have a way of equipping us for His work, if we are prepared to function in the unction. If He can do it for me, He shall do greater for you. 

Well, I felt the need to share at least the first 12 with you. Perhaps you can meditate on them and ask 'God, make me passionate for your service....'

Read on and Enjoy, then pray...

JOSHUA 14:6-15

1. You must not live by a miracle, and yet must expect a miracle(operate in the miraculous) 

Act 10:38 How God anointed and consecrated Jesus of Nazareth with the [Holy] Spirit and with strength and ability and power; how He went about doing good and, in particular, curing all who were harassed and oppressed by [the power of] the devil, for God was with Him. 

Prayer: whatever will make me unique, operating under the unction of your mystery, manifest in me

2. You must be much more mentored as you are a mentor(you must be to someone an example as you look to another for example)

1Co 11:1 PATTERN YOURSELVES after me [follow my example], as I imitate and follow Christ (the Messiah). 

Prayer: oh lord devinely direct me to people who will have positive impact in my life, as I receive wisdom to touch someone's life positively.

3. You must have a credible testimony that direct others to God rather than to yourself.(Its your job to force the direction)
Phi 2:5 Let this same attitude and purpose and [humble] mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus: [Let Him be your example in humility:] 

Phi 2:6 Who, although being essentially one with God and in the form of God [possessing the fullness of the attributes which make God God], did not think this equality with God was a thing to be eagerly grasped or retained, 
Phi 2:7 But stripped Himself [of all privileges and rightful dignity], so as to assume the guise of a servant (slave), in that He became like men and was born a human being. 

Phi 2:8 And after He had appeared in human form, He abased and humbled Himself [still further] and carried His obedience to the extreme of death, even the death of the cross! 
Phi 2:9 Therefore [because He stooped so low] God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, 
Phi 2:10 That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 
Phi 2:11 And every tongue [frankly and openly] confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 

Prayer: my father and my God, let every iota of the operation of Pride in me, die 

4. You must be able to tell the time, at least as an indication that you are in charge of the clock of your life.

Col 4:5 Behave yourselves wisely [living prudently and with discretion] in your relations with those of the outside world (the non-Christians), making the very most of the time and seizing (buying up) the opportunity. 

Prayer: Let me not miss your plan and purpose for my destiny

5. You must passionately enliven your word to keep it; soon the world will call you an enigma just for that.
Psalm 119; 72; 89

Prayer: anoint my word as I live in the declaration and manifestation of it.

6. You must be dissatisfied with your satisfaction until you are assured within yourself that you are living satisfactorily
Gen 30:25 Jacob said to Laban Send me away that I may go to my own place, and to my country.

Prayer: father, let me not live in false humility, or satanic reassurance.

7. You must hate good in people when you know they can do better.
James 2:18…You have faith and I have works…Show me your faith without works and I will show you my faith by my works.

Prayer: Teach me to inspire rather than expire people around me

8. You must be a living goldfish outside the bowl of this world.
Matt 5: 16…Let your light so shine before men

Prayer: God anoint me a living wonder

9. You must not take a NO for an answer; neither must you take a YES for a question.

But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one. (Matthew 5:37 WEB)

Prayer: God honour my word to be trusted by the world

10. You must see every rough road of life as an indicator to success in life, as you cannot enjoy being a winner if you have not experienced a loss.

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4 WEB)

Only those who do not try anything, or expect anything, never fail. People who have few failures also have few victories. 

Prayer: Father, let your joy be my strength even in adversity 

11. You must be able to celebrate the relevance of others to bring out your own relevance(to be relevant)

Rejoice with those who rejoice [sharing others' joy], and weep with those who weep [sharing others' grief]. (Romans 12:15 AMP)

Prayer: Give me the special grace to empathise when others hurt.

12. You must be able to write without thinking your ten year plan on the back of a complimentary card/business card, complete with the why; the when and the how.

Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for the [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God [the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man's scrutiny]. (1 Corinthians 2:10 AMP)

Prayer : Impact my life with your wisdom

Declare NCC shall be great and our branches shall walk in the unction to function

Pastor

You are a living wonder
