Exposition on 2 Samuel 6 by Claus
Subtitled WHEN MEN TOOK HIS GLORY TO THEMSELVES
You don't have an option in your service to God
Looking at the fact that God killed Uzzah for his error has many implications.
2 Samuel 6
7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
It's almost a taboo to preach messages like these judging from the messages about who we are in Christ, new creation. But I will.
There is no margin of error allowable in God, we get punished when we miss our way. Our God hasn't changed like we make people think; Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever.
The deal
The truth is we have a choice to do what we want but we don't have a choice not to be dealt with when we let God down. We can't say we are not letting God down when we are disobeying him because of our ambitions.
I must confess that after all the deliverance I have seen happening in my ministry, the prophetic and testimonies and not to mention the gifts, I have always wished that I was doing my profession as a marketer full time and pursuing my masters. Ministry feels slow to me, feels like am wasting time and let the life I really wanted slip by.
Coming back into ministry means a different life than what I wanted. But what I want is not what God wants. So everyday I have two lives fighting within me.
I can decide to go cold on God and he won't stop me. However, he will land the axe on me, no option in God. He never stopped Jonah and he won't stop me now. But he may take his shield from me and the storms will shake my boat wherever I may be. Knowing this I have to adjust to my present position and make the best out of it.
I have passed this route before. In 1997 I quit ministry, swore that I won't preach again. Closed down my fellowship. Rejected odoggono SHS chaplin for three years and quarelled with the Holy Ghost for 8 months. He didn't stop me. But the storms hit my boat till they threw me into the sea. I repented in the belly of the whale and fasted more than 40 days instead of Jonah's three - dont fantasize I beg, I ate heavily in the evenings. The whale has vomited me at Nineveh.
Am not travelling this route any more. You don't want to try it. I have lost many years travelling this route, lost years.
Now am making the best with my situation. Looking at my certificates lying down when I could do a lot with it, with all those people telling me am not correct because I preach. Lord I submit to you. Its only a fool who will travel that stupid road of mine twice.
This is what God made me for. I won't go against him, never! Uzzah's experience is terrible because some christians are 'dying' like him. Losing their jobs by rejecting God. Once well to do now poor. Very healthy now sick. No hope.
We have no choice in matter my friends. Lets change our attitude and enjoy the ministry and christian life after all its helping people and going to heaven.
LIFE IS SHORT AND IT IS MOST WASTEFUL WHEN WE SPEND IT OUTSIDE GOD.
Here I am send me Lord!
Isaiah 6
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
Your level has changed!
