DO IT WITH GOD!

NETTIE-OLOGY: I am not who you thought I was going to be.

MARK 6:3 THE VOICE
Isn’t this Jesus, the little boy we used to see in Joseph’s carpenter shop? Didn’t He grow up to be a carpenter just like His father? Isn’t He the son of Mary over there and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, Simon, and their sisters? Who does He think He is?
And when they had thought about it that way, they became indignant and closed themselves to His message.

Some people will always see Jesus as a carpenter and a son of Mary, how could the child, even young adult, they knew be the Messiah?

MARK 6:4-6 THE VOICE
JESUS (seeing this): A prophet can find honor anywhere except in his hometown, among his own people, and in his own household.
He could not do any of His great works among them except with a few of the sick, whom He healed by laying His hands upon them. He was amazed by the stubbornness of their unbelief.
Jesus went out among the villages teaching,

Not everyone is going to see who you are, many will remember what you did.  In the natural Yeshua built things in the spiritual He is the Creator of man. In the natural the Apostle made shelters, in the spiritual the Apostle Paul taught us how to build and maintain our earthly temples- body and soul. We know that Matthew the fisherman became a fisher of men. Despite the opinions of others these men became who YHWH purposed for them to be.

It is hard to become who GOD wants you to be when you surround yourself with people who don’t like change.  Unfortunately, it is just as difficult to develop your gifts when your support system wants you to grow according to their wisdom and knowledge.

JAMES 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

PHILIPPIANS 4:13
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Everyone has an opinion as to how you should live your life based on their understanding of your purpose. James 1:5 says you should ask YHWH for wisdom, an understanding of how to apply what you know and understand. You can do all things through Christ not man.

In order to make the necessary changes in your life that you know are needed, I firmly believe, it is very important to follow Him not them. Everyone has an opinion of who you are and how you should act. Even if they believe in your goals / purpose they will try and tell you how to go about achieving it. If you don’t know how to do it ask GOD (James 1:5), if you don’t think you are able to do it trust the anointing, Christ, who will give you the ability.                Written by Marsha L F Randolph

POST SCRIPT: I write this because I have recently had to make adjustments in my own life. Many individuals whose opinions I value tried to lead me in a way that helped them but was not right for me. It cost me years of frustration.
