A Candid Reflection Of Ministry Success
Father Abraham's life application to today's believers is multi-faceted: talk about the seed of Abraham, the faith of Abraham, the blessing of Abraham, the promise of Abraham, the calling of Abraham, etc. Some of these applications are more than the others. Of a truth, you cannot but hear about the blessing of Abraham as often as the church door opens. Yet God calls the attention of the whole nation of Judah and Benjamin to consider the calling of their progenitor in the midst of the uncertainty of the threats of the Babylonians to plunder the land and take the people captive to Babylon:
Look into Abraham you father, and said unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him... Isaiah 51:2 (KJV)
Today the situation looks similar in the ministry world. There are many good things but not God - things attracting the called of God to substitute the sacredness of their calling for the mundane and the ephemerals. It is a trap! The pop psychology, the success motivation talk and its appeals, the money talk, the deliverance teaching circuits etc are here to take captives of the simple and the innocent who look to the so-called successful ministries and ministers of our day with abandoned caution.
If Abraham survived the pressure of his days 'to make it' you can survive it too. All you need to do is to look at 'Abraham in the Mirror'
