Drop
dead weights. You do not need them.
People
who are blessed with problem solving skills should master their emotions. They should
endeavor to be in perfect control of their emotions. That is to say that their
emotions should be totally handed over to God for safekeeping so that their
emotions do not get in the way of service to God and humanity. That way they
can and will always function effectively in the deployment of their problem
solving skills to humanity. Jesus Christ
is the classic example. The Apostle Paul is also a good example. So also is
Joseph. Despite the hurts from people they loved served, they continued to
bless humanity by deploying their gifts for the service of humanity.
Beloved,
drop dead weights. You do not need them. This is because they will either slow
you down or immobilize you, especially emotional dead weights which always have
an unusual capacity to ground people completely. Some emotional dead weights
include resentment, envy, bitterness, hatred, jealousy, vindictiveness. You do
not need any of these. Aside from blocking and hindering the free flow of the
Holy Spirit in your life, they also stifle creativity by dampening your
enthusiasm for life, productivity and what have you. They make you an unhappy
negative person who always spews perversion; a person that people want to avoid
because almost all of your utterances are loaded with sarcasm, invectives, ill
will and negative utterances including curses. You will be an unpleasant person
that nobody wants to stay around.
People
from diverse nationalities, royalty and intellectual backgrounds sought the
presence and company of King Solomon because he had wisdom to dispel to people.
King Solomon spoke wisdom and not curses, not invectives, not ill will and not sarcasm.
He blessed people, humanity with his thought and utterances. People stayed
around him and blessed him immensely with material and financial resources,
some of which contributed immensely to his great wealth. Please read Proverbs
Chapters 12 verses 14, 8, 18; 15 verses 1 to 2,4, 7, 28, 30; 16 verses 1, 13;
18 verses 4, 20 to 21; 17 verse 27, James Chapter 3, 1st Kings
Chapters 3 verses 16 to 28, 4 verses 29 to 34, 10 verses 1 to 10, 24 to 29, 1st
Chronicles Chapter 9 verses 1 to 9, 23 to 24.
Dead
weights always impede progress. To start with, they are heavy to carry and therefore
take a great toll; spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically and financially
on whoever is carrying them. You might require help to carry them but no one
really likes to give a helping hand especially when they are spiritual and
emotional dead weights. The only Person Who would gladly help is Jesus Christ
as long as the dead weights are handed over to Him completely so that He would
take on the dead weights and you would take on His light weight of love, grace,
compassion and kindness.
Dead
weights always smell as they are susceptible to smell on account of rot. As they
rot, they produce offensive smells which people run away from and as they run
away from the smells, they actually avoid you, the carrier and harbinger of the
smell. Have you ever noticed that people avoid sarcastic, rude, invective and
nasty people for no other reason than these negative character traits?
