HONOUR
& DISHONOUR: TWO SIDES OF DIVINE PURPOSE
MEMORISE
But
in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of

John 6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go?
thou hast the words of eternal life.
John 6:69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the
Son of the living God.
John 6:70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of
you is a devil?

that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
MESSAGE
Either for honour or dishonour, everyone is born to fulfil a purpose.
You are however responsible for the category of God’s purpose you fulfil in His
overall operations among men.
“If
a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour,
sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.”
2 Timothy 2:21
A man can also either help or hinder God’s purpose
for his life. For example, God’s purpose for Samson was that he should deliver
Israel from their oppressors. But tragically, the completion of his assignment
depended on his moral discipline, which he ignored (Judges 13:5).
John the Baptist is an example of a vessel unto
honour. God spoke concerning him that he would convert many souls into the
Kingdom. For this purpose, he was filled with the Holy Ghost right from his
mother’s womb. He did not have any opportunity to live a self-seeking life from
childhood until his death because of the influence of the Holy Spirit upon him
from the womb (Luke 1:13-17). Judas Iscariot however allowed himself to be used
for the other side of the coin of divine purpose. He allowed himself to be used
negatively to fulfil a divine purpose; that is, to betray the Saviour of
mankind as it was ordained ages before he was born (John 6:64). In the same
spiritual environment where Judas Iscariot was nurtured and turned out to be a
thief and a betrayer, John the Beloved also was nurtured and became the most
intimate disciple of the Lord (John 13:23). Before you were born, God had a
purpose. The good news is that as for me and the children God has given me –
both biological and spiritual, we are for signs, wonders and divine purpose
unto honour. If you are one of my children, congratulations! You are on your
way to fulfilling your divine purpose. Honour is your portion in Jesus’ Name.
If you are not, you can be grafted in by giving your life to Christ as you say
this prayer:
Lord Jesus, I acknowledge I’m a sinner. I
acknowledge the price you paid for my sins on the cross of Calvary, and I
accept your offer of salvation. Wash me with your blood, make me a new person
and write my name in the Book of Life. Thank you for your mercy and
forgiveness, and for accepting me into your family, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
