Text: Acts 10:38.
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
There are two categories of people in every society on Earth. The problems and the problem solvers. We are all familiar with problems. However, the society does not reward problems but the problem solvers. The problems are many but the problem solvers are very few.
Correct leadership is dependent on its ability to manage crises and solve problems. A leader who lacks the capacity to solve problems will be nothing but a figure head. No wonder they say, “Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.”
Wealth creation is about problem solving. Take a look at the wealthiest men on earth. They are all problem solvers. They deliberately look for problems in the society and get them solved on a regular basis and they get rewarded financially.
As a child of God, you need to build your capacity to solve problems. The more problems you solve the more you get rewarded. Problem solvers don’t lack financial resources. They cannot lack because they add value to the members of the society.
Your ability to solve problems depend on several factors. Jesus Christ was the greatest problem solver ever known. Why? Because he solved the greatest problem ever known. What is the greatest problem, then? Is it sickness? No! Is it poverty? Is it curses? No! Is it natural disasters?Is it death? No! all of these are just the aftermath or symptoms of the real problem. The real problem is spelt, SIN.
Another name for sin is disobedience. Sin brought sickness, poverty, curses, disasters, death etc. the Lord Jesus came to deal with monster called sin once and for all- Matthew 1:21;
Moses brought the law but Jesus brought grace. Law without grace led to hypocrisy. However, grace brought the ability to resist sin and overcome temptation-Titus 2:11.
The anointing of the Holy Spirit enabled Christ to go about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him- Acts 10:38.
Prayer Nugget: I refuse to be a problem but a problem solver in Jesus Name.
