Overcoming The Sin Of Sluggishness
Have you ever felt stuck in your spiritual walk—praying less, losing passion for God’s Word, and struggling to stay committed? You’re not alone. Spiritual sluggishness can creep in quietly, draining your faith and leaving you spiritually weak. But the good news? You don’t have to stay there. Let’s explore the process of Overcoming The Sin Of Spiritual Sluggishness.
” And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and VIOLENT MEN SEIZE IT BY FORCE [AS A PRECIOUS PRIZE—A SHARE IN THE HEAVENLY KINGDOM IS SOUGHT WITH MOST ARDENT ZEAL AND INTENSE EXERTION].”
Matthew 11:12(AMPC)
When it comes to the ministry, sluggishness is costly.
Reluctance will be the death of the ministry, Hesitancy will stagnate the ministry from flourishing in your hands.
Passivity will cause your ministry to lose its fire, to spread fast and far. The ministry is such that you need a certain level of passion to enter into it. You need a certain level of speed to gain balance in the ministry.
You need a certain level of forcefulness to achieve God’s will in the ministry.
You need a certain level of aggressiveness to move forward and expand in the ministry.
You need a certain level of persistence to win your ministerial battles and out-wear your devil in the ministry.
You need to have a spine to build a disciplined church or ministry membership.
You need a certain level of consistency to establish doctrine and culture in your ministry.
You need a certain level of madness to catch the anointing for ministry.
You need a certain level of zeal to demonstrate God’s power in ministry.
In fact, the various version translation of Matthew 11:12 says it all. “Violent men seize it by force [as a precious prize—A SHARE IN THE HEAVENLY KINGDOM IS SOUGHT WITH MOST ARDENT ZEAL AND INTENSE EXERTION]. (AMPC)
“For a long time now people have tried to FORCE THEMSELVES INTO GOD’S KINGDOM” (MSG)
“The realm of heaven’s kingdom is bursting forth, AND PASSIONATE PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN HOLD OF ITS POWER.” (TPT)
“GOD’S KINGDOM HAS BEEN GOING FORWARD STRONGLY. And people have been trying to TAKE CONTROL OF IT BY FORCE.” (ERV)
“THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS BECOMING VERY STRONG. STRONG PEOPLE ARE TRYING VERY MUCH TO ATTACK IT.” (EasyEnglish).
With the help of all this version, we can say confidently that it becomes a sin that could end your ministry if you try to take the ministry and God’s calling upon your life easy. If you try to be careful and non-aggressive about the nitty-gritty of ministry, your ministry will
remain small and non-impactful. So don’t end or ruin your ministry by being sluggish and non-passionate about God’s call over your life.
