TRY THIS ATTITUDE

I have often wondered about how difficult it is for many to change from what they believe and adhere to even when they have found out that it is wrong. Many hold on to their ideologies even when they have discovered the falsehoods they contain. In short, many do not want to change and this is a basic predisposition. They would rather believe the things they have been believing or keep doing the things they have been doing. Their wish to continue in this manner most often has no bearing on whether what they are believing or doing is wrong or right. They are just attached to doing or believing those things and would not want to change because changing means agreeing that they have been wrong and they are too proud to do that.

PRESERVE THE JOY OF ZION


 How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land (Psalm 137:4)?

The believer is a citizen of heaven or Zion. He belongs to the city of the living God and is expected to live on earth from this city. In other words, we are supposed to live here as ambassadors of our homeland Zion. You may take many things away from an ambassador but not the consciousness of his homeland. Forget it. One day, a group of international pastors were asked to introduce themselves at a meeting. Everyone went about this mentioning their name and earthly country till it was the turn of one remarkable pastor who mentioned his name and added that he hails from Zion. All the others applauded him for opening their eyes to this truth.
