PHANEROO~DEVOTION 24th March 2016 PATTERNS OF GREATNESS II Apostle Grace Lubega

[1 Corinthians 9:25]; And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

One of the greatest lessons on mastery is, the appreciation that the spirit world is ranked (Joel 2:7). All men are equal before God, he is no respecter of persons, but that doesn't mean we are all ranked equal in the spirit world. It is possible to be more anointed than some men, yet not be ranked higher than them because the distinctions of their ministries have the testimony of a deeper maturity and access to some things that may be far from you at the time.

What this means is that, it doesn’t matter how deep you are, if some men do not open certain doors to you, you may take longer at the place of giving birth. Why is this so? It is because certain territories are already acquainted with those men and the men are acquainted with them.

Understand this child of God, there are certain men that go before you, there are those that are at your level and there are those that are below you. Don’t ever think that you are at the same level with everybody spiritually.

In God, there is such a thing as the need to strive for mastery; this will always set one apart from many others. It's true that God has provided an equal plane for all of us to come to him as his children, but after a man comes, he must understand that there is temperance required of him in all things. May God work temperance in you in all things.

Excerpt from the sermon: DISTINCTIVE MINISTRY by Apostle Grace Lubega.

One of the greatest lessons on mastery is, the appreciation that the spirit world is ranked (Joel 2:7). All men are equal before God, he is no respecter of persons, but that doesn't mean we are all ranked equal in the spirit world.
