READ: Matthew 10:1-25
“…It is enough for the student to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master…” – Matthew 10:25, NIV
A son must become an allos because it will make him a great person. Decide to be a great man of God;
decide to become a great worship leader. Become a choir leader or a shepherd people will not forget. How can you do this? The answer is simple: become another of the same kind. Let us not become mystical about the formula to greatness in God. Let us not beat about the bush. Let’s go directly to God’s method of producing another of the same kind. If it is great, another of the same kind will also be great. If it is anointed, another of the same kind will be anointed. If it is powerful, another of the same kind will be powerful.
I believe that God has called me to serve Him. I am not special and I am not different. I am simply another of the kind that God has raised up already. I want to find someone with a similar calling and follow hard after him.
It won’t be long and we will be going home. I don’t have much time for trial and error. I cannot afford any time for experiments. I may be in the middle of an experiment when the Lord calls me. I need to get straight to the point. I need the anointing and I need it fast! I need to preach well and I need to preach well now! I need to heal the sick and to raise the dead and I want it to happen within the time the Lord has given me.
How about you? How many years of experimentation are you going to dabble with until you become humble enough to become another of the same kind?
