A GREATER ME: YOUR ROD & YOUR STAFF THEY COMFORT ME (PT1)

7 Benefits of His Rod & Staff + WHY His Rod and Staff is prophetically included in His Love Plan for us.

Proverbs three verses twelve: For whom the LORD loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights. Hebrews twelve verses six and seven; For whom the Lord loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives.” If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons;

The above Scriptures are self-explanatory of experiences to many like me (with spiritual knowledge); of the prophetic link between grace and discipline which connects with growing up with very strict parents of an archetypal (African-Nigerian-Igboic mpa and nma).

For example, when a typical African Nigerian mother accords your (iberiberism) misbehaviors with some (Fireful brain resettable slaps, brain correction knocks, danceable spanks on your bum or hands). Then, thou will know that the Lord is indeed good and His mercies endureth forever. If you know what i am saying here, you know, if you no come know nko, na explain dem go dey explain simple matter to you. Mumsie ever knocked your stubborn head or draw your ears and add up some hot squeezes to caution you or correct you for not keeping to home terms and conditions or cores? There and then you will realize the difference between Rhema and logos of the word of God. 

Sincerely speaking, if you didn’t go through this process growing up, it means you missed a greater season of life and most importantly the Mumsie love (for those of us wey get stubborn materials inside our medulla oblongata). Mumsie does this sincerely out of love just to help straighten that long stem-like structure which makes up part of our brainstem; the anterior and partially inferior to the cerebellum. 

I chose the role of mothers here because, mum’s knows how potentially empowered their children are and the driving capacity for greatness that brings honour to the family, but she also knows the stranger (distractions, peer pressure and undue pleasure) playing kokoma sound in our brains. So the best form of correction measure to secure the future of her child/children and reposition them are the above brain correction application mentioned above; resettable slaps, brain correction knocks, danceable spanks on your bum or hands.

If you are a sheep, then you should be conversant with rods and staffs in the hands of the Shepherd; and that to follow the Shepherd gracefully and instructively will make you a better and greater sheep. Also, knowing that the rod and the staff in His hands connects you to follow with the sense of becoming the desire of the shepherd. Most instructively, the rod and staff also assist you always to stay off destruction or destructive lanes. 

Terms and conditions make business honourable and profitable and it is the beauty of every business engagement. From my experience with most “Christians” this is one area you must not mention to them; else you won’t see them again. But, we cannot claim to be in the LOVE PLAN of God without His ROD & His STAFF. The beauty of His Rod and Staff is the comfort it brings; else we live unhealthy, malnourished and unfit to enjoy His blessings, for His blessings makes rich and adds no sorrow to it. Just imagine having money with no peace of mind, the riches without health, it is the same as having love without rod and staff, such love will be comfortless and the blessings that should accords relationship with the Father will be in scarce commodity. It is written, it is him that the Father loves that He chastises.

Thank You for coming in here with us on my BIRTHDAY (16TH MARCH) topic: A GREATER ME: YOUR ROD & YOUR STAFF THEY COMFORT ME (PT1). You will experience LOVE and all its BENEFITS in Christ in all endavours in Jesus name Amen.

GOD Bless you richly.
