ORDER


ORDER

What is order? Many times we hear the word, it informs us of the absence/disappearance of any form of chaos, disarray, non-coherence and turbulence affecting a particular situation.

In a court hearing session, the court orderly is usually known to shout the word "ORDER" whenever there seems to be any noise been made in the courtroom as a result of whatever revelations is made by a witness or the judgements declared by the judge. Order could also be understood as a repair process to some form of disorganization.

Order is usually very pretty to behold. Imagine a young child's room where all things are in disarray, socks and shoes on the bed, clothes on the floor etc. Such a sight is most times irritating and the next instruction from an observant parent would be that the child should put the room in order. After this is done, the room perfectly arranged, now looks very admirable. Same also is the office table of some public officers, files and documents scattered all over, such desktop on sight makes the owner looks very irresponsible to outsiders and even increases his workload because of how much he has to brainstorm and get stressed up whenever he needs to draw out a file simply because he doesn't know where to search for it, but if such desk is put in order, it looks beautiful to behold and the search for misplaced documents is easy as the tracing is lesser work.

Genesis  1:2 - "And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

In Genesis chapter 1, we read of how the entire world was in disarray, infact without form and how that darkness thrived over it all up until the Spirit of the Lord commanded order to exist by simply calling forth light.

In simpler plain easy to understand grammar, the absence of GOD in one's life or over a particular situation equally results in the presence of disorder, but at the introduction of light which exists only in CHRIST JESUS, all the darkness that is significant of the devil's reign disappears and ORDER comes into play.

The introduction of light is essentially the first step in dismissing disorderliness which as I would like to emphasize once again exists only in JESUS. The day and time that an individual realizes that there truly is no joy or beauty in the leading of the devil upon his life is the time that his salvation begins because every sane being would want some form of joy and peace of mind to their lives, something only JESUS can give. So from that time, the need to seek out salvation in JESUS begins as he alone can place order where the devil has succeeded in causing a wide range of turbulence.

It is his sole aim, his entire existing assignment, to steal, kill and destroy (John. 10:10), wherever and whenever such things happen, a huge aura of fear, doubt, general disorder arises. So it would be entirely fair to acclaim the absence of order in the midst of men throughout all of human history to the devil. That a man would just be comfortable with stealing from others even though it would cost the sufferer his livelihood or even his life and there is no form of remorse for such acts is simple proof that such life is in a high level of disarray skillfully orchestrated by the devil.

Mark 5 records of a man from the town of Gadara whose life was in shambles simply because the devil was in charge of it. He would cut himself with stones, force his bones through the chain's used to hold him back and imaginably hurt himself variously. It is infact very safe to say that his life was not enjoying order on any level until the LORD JESUS came to his rescue and sent out the evil spirit out of his life, then order came to play.

Is your life in any form of disarray, or perhaps you don't think so simply because all is well at the moment, there is money to be spent, armed men on guard all year round, a successful academics, a pleasant job, a booming business, food to eat, blessed family and children, clothes to wear and even many other possessions left in store for future generations. Is this what your confidence lies upon that makes you feel the devil has nothing on you?

Permit me to say again and again for purpose of emphasis in the aim of clarity that there are only two sides on this side of eternity, it's either you stand with and believe in JESUS or you lay claim to being a son of the devil, there is no middle point, no place wherein you assume, that you are allowed to share a seat on the fence, to be spiritually inclined today and tomorrow you are riding on the devil's back.

A common term we often use is overspirituality as if we try to permit some wrong doings in the claim that too much of everything isn't good, but too much of JESUS is just the right amount you would need to keep order in your life, so you do not remain a scape goat in the hands of the devil whereby he deceives you severally, eventually leading you out of the purpose of GOD creating you into this world - FELLOWSHIP.

Seek JESUS today, do not wait for some other time before you consider His outstretched arm of love towards you, He calls out once again today, friend come, you are of heavy burden, I would like to make it light (Matt. 11:28-30), the devil has cheated you thus far but I am here just so that you can henceforth walk in the purpose for your creation, no more deceived, now empowered with truth. . . HALLELUYAH

GOD BLESS YOU.
