‘Jesus replied, are there not twelve hours in a day? If anyone walks by day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. But he who walks at night, he stumbles, because he has not dawned on him…’ (John 11: 9-10)
‘…and when you have found it, then there will be a reward, and your hope will not be cut off.’ (Proverbs 24:14)
This applicable biblical principle is that which governs every conceivable blessing of mankind. My first ‘rough’ question to you is: Have you found the secret strategy that governments all the imaginable blessings of humanity?
If your answer is NO; then wake up and plug into the socket of desperate inquiry by a current that would shatter every shackle of ignorance that has hitherto held you in darkness. If your answer is yes; sit back and enjoy this series, your results should already be commanding a level of respect that can’t be pretentious.
Every time you see people dragging their feet as victims and prisoners of war, it is because they lack the light or, better yet, the searchlight that can undo the fruitless works of darkness in your lives.
Every defeat suffered during the day has its roots in the arrows of darkness shot at night.
Their rewards in life are what determines your Cheers. Respect is also a function of resultswhich itself is a product of light. When rewards and expectations are shattered, it is because of the neglect of the vanquished to use the floor light, in the night stations, to locate the hidden riches and treasures of darkness, for a excellent and victorious life, even in the midst of dense darkness. That kind of envious life is determined by the level and intensity of focus you carry.
There is a man by the name David (Paul) Yonggi-Cho (a man of results and therefore of respect). Today he is considered a notable expert on the subject of church growth, many remember him as the Pastor of the largest church in the world.– almost a million strong!
This man not only stumbled upon this amazing success, a woman showed him the mystery that made him a master in his pastoral calling. In fact, at first, he was a very reluctant student to JaShil Choi(her mother-in-law), in the school of ‘midnight watches’.
For 11 years (1958-69), he had worked with modest results in the ministry, but as soon as he enlisted in the ‘midnight army’ and joined forces to fight the battle in everyday doorthe story of his destiny changed radically and his congregation grew astronomically.
Having arrived at the Palace of Destiny today, he sits on his throne of fame, being sought out by everyone in his calling line to show them the secrets of his exploits. There is no place, or no book, on the subject of Church Growth, in the world today, that has not followed the example of the exploits of this man.
His, is a vowel voice in the world, his voiceI mean its fantastic results it is still speech for even the deaf to hear today. It was the pain of resounding failure and near-bankruptcy that assailed him that brought him, with the humility of an apprentice, to his knees, to point his ‘prayer gun’ at the ‘Goliath of failure’. He today he has been rewarded by destiny as a leader of leaders.
My prayer for you is that the pain and shame of whatever it is that has prevented you from achieving a great achievement in life becomes too unbearable and unacceptable for you. May you be motivated enough to join forces with me in this series as we investigate matters pertaining to your own palace and stardom as well.
So, I’m warning you today, whatever you get, get the Treasure Focus!
This piece is dedicated to Dr Karen Hurstonan informant and young associate of Yonggi-Cho, who through her book: “Growing the largest Church in the world” I validated my 11 months of research in 2001/2002, on the subject of greatness. This secret was not even readily and directly available in Yonggi-Cho’s teachings.
