TOPIC: HEAVEN’S
HEART CRY – Pt. 1
“My
son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him who reproaches me [as having failed in my parental duty].
Prov.27:11 – AMP.
All through the ages, generations
and centuries; there has been a serious search in the heavens for true
representatives. God has laid trust upon many and yet they failed him. He
created man in HIS OWN IMAGE and LIKENESS bearing the same nature and glory (as
at the beginning) but he (man) failed to represent him faithfully on earth. He
made the heavens and the earth, His abode is heaven but the earth has he given
to the sons of men, even though it’s His footstool (Isa.66:1). This search has
been on and most times he only finds ‘one-man’ in a whole generation whom he
can trust. In Genesis 6:6, the scriptures recorded that, “the Lord was grieved that he had
made man on earth, and his heart was filled with pain” – NIV. Ah! I
think I can really get a glimpse on how He felt ‘after lavishing many resources
on this man? After such great love I poured out on him?’ His love was enormous
that He did not give up on us, yes us, because we were in the loins of Adam
when he sinned, and because He has engraved us in the palm of His hands, He
couldn’t just forget us (Isa.49:15-16).
He still had to send His only
beloved son Jesus to come in the likeness of men and die so that he may redeem
us from the destruction of sin. Yes, he had to do all that for you, so that we
can live for Him not as we want. We were bought with a price in order to
glorify God in our body (I Cor. 6: 17-20).
Now, back to Prov.27:11 are you
among those who have grieved his heart all these while? His heart is really
grieved and he is still like a father pleading “please be wise, make my heart
glad, that I may answer him who reproaches me”. Are you a true representative
of your father (God)?
Before you were born, there was a
round table discussion in heaven concerning you and at the end, he fixed you in
that family, school, office and church so that you can represent him well. Will
you fail him like others have done in the past or will you be faithful? Even
before the devil, God made a boast about Job saying “Have you considered my
servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright
man, one who fears God and shuns evil?” – Job 1:8. Can God say that about you?
Are you bearing his nature and glory? Are you still like God? Or have you
forgotten his eyes were watching you when you told that lie; took that bribe,
stole with biro (neatly)…? (Psa.33:13). Jesus is the first born among many
brethren (Rom.8:29, Col.1:15), are you still among the family of sons?
In case you have you have messed up
and have failed him, you can still return back now that you yet have the
opportunity to do. It’s never too late to do the right thing. He loves you and
will not be happy to see you rot in the fires of hell. Today as you have heard
His voice, don’t harden your heart (Heb.3:15). You can make Him (God) proud
today even in that office, family and school where He posted you. You can
gladden His heart and live for Him.
If nothing could stop Jesus from
laying down His life to save you, what is it that can stop you from giving Him
your life? He loves passionately. Make the right decision today!
