This idea of doing all things all by yourself all the time is self destructing and time wasting.
If even God deployed angels (after creation) despite Him knowing all things, can do all things, is everywhere etc; why can't you adopt that divine and kingdom principles of employment for deployment?
Part Two: You don't have Time.
I wanted to publish my first book (The Mystery of Beauty) of about 200 pages all by myself but after writing and almost typing all, I'm still unable to finish it up and publish it till now due to resources and finance.
From there, the Lord started training me and giving me a focus of a publishing group to make things happen faster and smarter in a shorter time with no stress while I keep up with writing and ministry works.
I learnt my lesson the hard way. But it paid off though. That was what I implemented and I came up with two books (The Fear of Monster Trees and Leading of the Spirit) in a short time than I expected. That's how God works, He permits experience at times to teach you His ways.
But it's best to pray for spiritual intelligence (understanding and revelation) to bypass experience and save or recover time. Stop wasting the time you don't have.
Part Three: All time Relevance
Have you seen the leading and long-term Ministries and Churches of nations or worldwide? That's their key for thriving and relevance.
They keep employing more ministers and workers and the more they keep doing that, they keep advancing. Because they have a system of leadership that understands administration.
This is one of the major keys for all time Relevance - Administration: building systems and structures - employment and deployment. And it can only be accomplished by selflessness and service to God and His works.
Part Four: There will always be more to do
I found out that there was more to write about every now and then and there's no more time to type, proofread, edit, publish with designs etc.
In fact, not even time to process all into writing so much that I at times open up my mouth to release them to whoever I have around me before I feel the burden lessened.
Every minute (let me not say seconds so you won't think I'm exaggerating on what may not be possible), these things (inspirations, ideas, understanding and revelations) keep popping up without even fasting, praying, reading or studying the scriptures etc.
How much more when I engage these spiritual activities? In fact, it often seems as if I'm going to explode or die when I've not even gone to heaven to behold and know all mysteries?
Part Five: I had an Encounter
I had one encounter this year at school during lecture hour and I was asking myself and two friends seated at my back (Israel and Marvelous) if I won't quit school because these things were too much to handle all by myself.
I've not submitted to my spiritual father (Prophet Dare Makinde) then but I opened up to my Mentor - Dr. Toyin Obafemi and I had to meet my spiritual friend (Bidemi Oyetola) too.
That moment then, topics with their understanding and revelations on what to write on just kept on coming and I kept writing while my hand and body was shaking even after writing uncountable titles of books that perhaps were never written before.
Part Six: It happened again
The same thing happened while I was under the ministration of Pastor David of Okitipupa during the JCCF service at school this year too.
Times like that, it's always as if the whole of heaven is opened on my head. And in such moments, I understood what the abundance can cause to a man - Pride, self boasting, puffing up etc, if such does not always find means to subdue the pressure which is giving glory to the giver - God Himself and sharing it freely.
Part Seven: Fasting
I found out why at times, God needed to permit affliction, persecution, trials etc. They're all to help such person to rely on, depend on and be humble before God.
But then, I found out what the Fathers of Faith implements consistently to keep themselves in check for this position of Heaven on earth at all times without being afflicted and still keep the position of constant receiving from Heaven without its closure or void of understanding, revelation, mysteries etc.
This is the basic key to engaging the processes of spiritual growth but can only be handled by mastery in them based on spiritual maturity.
What's this ever relevant principle - fasting.
The reason why you can still process that thought is because your body and soul is still much active. When you subject yourself to long time fasting, it's only your spirit that will be digesting them and you'll have no need to worry about processing them into writing, preaching etc because there's no physical strength to do so except spiritual strength.
And that will limit you to only what God wanted to do (dispense) through you by virtue of what He's revealed to you, while you begin to enlarge in capacity too.
When you have the stamina of the spirit, it'll help you in control and processing of constant receiving from heaven no matter how much they keep coming.
Since you have the channels of discharging and dispensing everything you receive (preaching, singing, writing, drama etc - not just keeping them to yourself because you can blow up; just like the saying that the anointing can kill a man), you'll be able with the aid of administration, to put all in order without being dead in the body and soul due to stress and overload of doing them all by yourself.
Part Eight: Long Life or Extinction of Men
I found out why God didn't permit some men to live too long. They knew too much that's meant for spirits (angels) not men.
Some even know beyond what angels knew. They are too costly for earth to have.
Although, they wanted to live long but they knew and at times they were told by God it's not okay for them to remain on earth. These kinds are colossus of dimensions in God. Too extreme in manifestations and possibilities in God beyond what records of men can contain; why?
They've touched God countless times and have become gods that host God Himself on earth. Heaven cannot have the thought to do a thing on earth without them knowing not even when heaven wants to start doing them on earth.
So, these kinds of men that we have now in our days and that are still living up to 80s in age currently knows that they have to keep suppressing themselves not to know, carry and do too much else they'll be evicted from earth.
They keep themselves in check by the Leading of the Spirit to do or reveal to men what only God would willingly coordinate.
In fact some of them need to beg God at times not to do too much before men start seeing them as God which in turn can cause their eviction from earth.
You see why Jesus runs from known places and people at times to unknown places and people?
Only men with a domain have to keep suppressing themselves. Such is like Daniel, despising political post to remain in secret with God just to hide God's magnanimous supernatural possibilities in him.
People like missionaries don't need to and are soon evicted at times by martyrdom because their atmosphere, presence and person is affecting both spirits and men from the norms naturally and are too unbearable for earth to contain - eviction.
Read the volumes of this book - "God's Generals" to understand more, though I've not been instructed by the Spirit to dwell on them yet.
This is just one of the major spiritual keys to living long as a Spiritual General.
The End.
