20. When you quit the ministry, you lose its blessings
(Ukiacha huduma unapoteza baraka zake pia)
Ask yourself what you were doing for God and what you are doing for Him now. Several years ago you considered yourself a reliable person. You used to think that if you didn't assume responsibility today, God's work would not progress. But now you have reached the point where you see it as normal. You feel that you have resigned yourself to the work of the Lord. Since you have resigned, you have also disqualified yourself from the blessings of the work you stopped doing. No one who resigns should continue to be paid because someone else is taking his or her place. Rev 3:11 “Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.” You reach a point where you depend on your strength. Although you have been a believer for a long time, what happens in your life does not reflect that duration in faith. It shows there is a problem somewhere. Don't get used to God. When Israel got used to Him, God told them He could cut them down and plant other people. Even if you are negligent, you will not hinder God. Mordecai warned Esther not to think she would be safe just because she was in the palace. He wanted her to know that if she did not take charge, God would raise someone else and she would perish along with her entire family and descendants. Est 4:14 “"For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"” If you do not fulfill your duty, God will raise someone else and you will perish and not prosper.

Jiulize ulikuwa unamfanyia nini Mungu na sasa unamfanyia nini. Miaka kadhaa iliyopita ulikuwa unajiona ni mtu unayetegemewa. Ulikuwa unajiona kwamba ukikosekana leo kazi ya Mungu haitaenda. Lakini sasa umefika mahali unaona ni kawaida tu. Unajiona kwamba umejiuzulu katika kazi ya Bwana. Hii ina maana kwamba umejiuzulu pia katika baraka zinazoambatana na kazi hiyo. Hakuna mtu anayejiuzulu aendelee kupewa mshahara kwa vile mwingine anachukua nafasi yake. Ufu 3:11 “Naja upesi. Shika sana ulicho nacho, asije mtu akaitwaa taji yako.” Unafika hatua unapambana kwa nguvu zako mwenyewe. Ingawa umeokoka siku nyingi, yanayotokea katika maisha yako hayaakisi huo muda mrefu ndani ya wokovu. Inaonyesha kuna shida mahali Fulani. Mungu hataki kuzoeleka. Hata Israeli walipomzoea Mungu aliwaambia anaweza kuwakata na kupanda watu wengine. Hata wewe ukizembea hutamkwamisha Mungu. Mordekai alimuonya Esta kwamba asidhani yeye atapona kwa sababu tu yuko ikulu. Na alimtaka ajue kwamba asipowajibika Mungu atamuinua mtu mwingine na yeye mwenyewe ataangamia pamoja na familia yake yote na uzao wake. Esta 4:14 “Kwa maana wewe ukinyamaza kabisa wakati huu, ndipo kutakapowatokea Wayahudi msaada na wokovu kwa njia nyingine; ila wewe utaangamia pamoja na mlango wote wa baba yako; walakini ni nani ajuaye kama wewe hukuujia ufalme kwa ajili ya wakati kama huo?” Hata wewe usipofanya wajibu wako Mungu atamuinua mtu mwingine na wewe utaangamia na hutafanikiwa tena katika maisha yako.
