MESSING UP IS NOT AN OPTION FOR GENERATIONS ARE AFTER YOUR FOOTSTEPS BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI
I sing it to the ears of people whom I follow that many are we who are after their footsteps, therefore they should not fail God and us. It is to encourage them that they are not alone on the path, several of us are with them.
Sir, many are secretly following you, please do not consider messing up.
Are you planning secretly in your heart to stop that good work? Remember many are they that are your followers. You don't know whom your kind heart has helped. You don't know who is secretly praying to attain that height you are.
What are those things that do not speak well of our profession as a Christian that you are planning to indulge in? Please consider those whose lives you have helped. Consider that person who may get discouraged to serve God because of your instability.
I listen to some songs by once upon Gospel artiste. Each time I listen to him, I am blessed. As my normal act, I went to goggle about him only to discover he is now a gay. Each time I play his songs, I can't stop praying that God will touch him and restore him again. Who knows if he had been conscious his ministry had helped people a lot maybe he would have decided to hold on to the end?
There be many that are following after you. You may not know know them all because some are watching you secretly. Consciously or unconsciously, they are imitating you.
Imagine someone preaching to others to flee fornication but he himself is not free from the act. Though he thinks those people cannot see him but his life is rubbing on his followers unconsciously.
Don't be a preacher who says " don't watch what I do, only look up to Jesus." Be accountable to those who are following after you. If you mess up, it has a way of affecting the stability of their hearts no matter how they have grown in stature.
If you have messed up and it seems you are confused of what to do next? Come clean before God for nothing is hid before God. He will clean up your mess. He is loving and forgiving.
Finally, please help me tell my generation not to follow the footsteps of those who are not following Christ. Paul affirmed it in the Scriptures; follow me even as I follow Christ. Christ is the yardstick not man. Man may lead you astray. God is our destination, Christ is the path that leads to him which our feet must tread. Don't follow any man out of pity if he is not following after Christ.
