Isolation is satans plan for our lives. He wants us to be isolated in our minds and isolated in our lives. Amongst people but isolated within. He wants you alone. He wants you to focus on all the reason why you cant do anything and to ignore all the reasons you can do all things. He wants you so focus on vanity that you negate to recognize your true purpose. He wants you so dependant on the world systems that you forfeit your dreams and your inner ambitions. He wants you without Godly account(ability)
Account(ability) is needed. Without someone to help you, you are left alone to be used and abused by the things of this world. Imagine how many families would be whole today if the husband had accountability over his hormones when he was away from his wife? Imagine how many families would be whole today if the wife had accountability over her emotions to trust her husband and not to have her thoughts running. Imagine where our would be today if parents were accountable to their kids, kids were accountable to their parents, we to our friends and we to society? Where would we be today???
Many people in our world today have been manipulated into thinking they don’t need anybody to help them get to where they are going. They feel they can do this and that by themselves, this may be true, you may accomplish all of your natural dreams and goals but what about your heart, your character? What about those things that mater most to God? I’m not talking about going to church, paying your tithes and being religious but I’m talking about maturing spiritually. Growing in the knowledge of God, growing in reverence of Him, growing into the image of Christ. Going to church and doing all the ritual stuff is overrated because majority of the people that go to church are more faithful to the church than they are to God Himself. We have to understand the importance of spiritual discipline. In order to be eternally effective in this natural world we have to be spiritually disciplined.
Many of our failures are due to a lack of spiritual disciplines…
Think about it
Think about all those times you’ve made a mistake cant you recognize the lack of spiritual discipline?
The times you got caught doing things you shouldn’t wasn’t it due to a lack of spiritual disciplines?
The times where you had a loss instead of a gain, wasn’t it due to a lack of spiritual discipline?
Before we can be “fully” disciplined naturally we must embark to be “fully” disciplined spiritually!
Satan aims to have us so caught up on the things of this world that we loose sight on fulfilling our purpose. He wants us so caught up on having accountability to go to the clubs but not accountability to grow in the church. He wants us so caught up on having accountability to get drunk but not have the accountability to grow in the things of God. He wants us to have accountability to help us fall into sexual, and immoral sin that we fail to have accountability to fulfill our purpose. Subconsciously we heap for ourselves accountability (people with the ability to account for our lives) that help us to sin and not hinder us from sinning. We cling to others through our emotional distress to compensate for our “deprived” heart and we become the blind being led by the blind heading towards a ditch.
Life is no joke and our opposition (satan) is not a comedian; he wants to obliterate your life. He wants you isolated, he wants you alone in your minds he wants your emotions to govern the decisions of your life he wants you dead! Because if you cease to live so does your PURPOSE.
Think to yourself
who is your accountability?
Part II
This portion aims to help you build your accountability
Remember these 2 D’s
Disciplined and Dependable
When choosing your accountability you must first ask yourself are they disciplined and are they dependable. You can tell if a person is disciplined through their personal lives. If they are not disciplined in their life what makes you think they can be in yours. If their life is not at arms reach but scattered, distant from their reach then how will the help you pull your life together? They must be disciplined, focused and keen and they must be dependable. Meaning that you are “able” to “depend” on them to account for your life. They also have to be responsible (being able to respond). They have to be able to respond with knowledge and wisdom. If a person responds to anything else outside of this they are responding out of ignorance. Knowledge = experience Wisdom = revelation from God outside of these two = ignorance and ignorance gets no one anywhere.
Tough love:
Many people want to be loved but not to be looooooved. True love derives from tough love for it is only out of tough love a person receives true revelation. Many times we say we love someone but we supply them with things that will kill them. We supply fatback and pork to our family members knowing it is killing them and we say we love them… we give people all types of things knowing they shouldn’t have it but do it any way risking the life of the person we “say” we love.
True love keeps away, true love monitors, true love “makes sure” the person they love endures. It doesn’t matter how much they beg or scream hateful words true love will endure those things knowing that at the end they will be grateful.
When choosing an accountability partner you have to ask your self will they love me or will they loooooove me. Will they “make sure” I do what I need to do to be successful or will they just give me everything I wont “knowing” it is doing me more harm than success…? If a person love you they will endure with you. If they care about you they will make sure you do what needs to be done and not have your life so scattered that you accomplish nothing in your life… you have to see and observe if they have the “ability to account” for your life.
Because no matter who you are you are giving some one the ability to account for your life,. consciously or subconsciously the question is are they dependable, accountable, responsible and disciplined?
Start today!
You can start improving your life today. Before you can be fully disciplined naturally you have to become fully disciplined spiritually. You will not know how to live life if you do not come to know the giver of life. You will not know how to defeat satan until you first become disciplined… the most effective way to defeat satan is through being disciplined and the way to become disciplined is to place things in your life to keep you accountable…
Your purpose hangs on accountability
My question is do you have it?
Today build Account(ability)
