MONTH OF MARCH, 2015

THEME: PERFORMANCE OF TASKS AS THE MEDIATORS

Act 7vs52-56, Gal. 3vs18-27, Rev. 1vs1-3, 10vs1-11

MEMO FOR THE MONTH

Task is large public work to be earned by great individuals or large duties or project to be carried out by the special direction. Both in dictionary or biblically, mediator  is a person or an organization that tries to get agreement between people or groups who disagree with each other. Te are intermediary of  matters or a go-between in settlement of issues.

Performance of tasks as the mediators could be seen in the Christian folds, Priests and Prophets  aremediators and to a lesser degrees-Kings as well. In more lesser form is the fathers, who stood the mediatorial role for their families in all ramifications. Gen. 8vs20, 12vs7-8, 15vs9-11.

Performances of Prophets as Mediators

They stand between God and man, they communicate to man the word and will of God. Example  to old testament was Moses. He was the one that God used to reveal His covenant to the Chosen Nation (Israel) Deut. 18vs18-22. As children of God born in the kingdom, we must obey the prophets, stick to their voices to keep going the will and  word of God in our lives, by so doing, the covenant of God He passed arises us from time immemorial will stand sure until the coming of the master.

God in old time also raised Prophet Samuel to whom he spake directly. 1sam 3vs3-21. The message of Samuel was for the good of the old Christians the Chosen of the fast and was recorded for our legacies in living a true life more better than.

Then the later prophet were regularly the instruments, in the hand of God for redemptive and corrective measures. Isa 1vs2-20, Amos 1-2. These prophets were also considered the watchmen of the impending destruction. They stood to intercede for the Nation Israel. Ezk 33vs1-9, Num 14vs1-19. These tasks, function are still in review in these millennium time. Prophet of the truths still engage in these tasks, duties and function-They never sized in these great task-count them especially in Nigeria today-Great prophet like-Bishop David Oyedepo, Abeoye E.O Adeboye Great Prophet T.B Joshua and many more of them who always stood in the gap to pray and intercede for our Nation Nigeria. Let us stand to hear them to help our Nation to stand and over come the morning dark of the destroyers.

Can I stand to list other mediators-example the Priests. They also teach the word of God, interpret His will through teaching. Neh 8vs1-8. Priests, also are responsible for various sacrifice. Though Jesus has paid in bulk  on this rather, but still today. The entire activities of Priest in the various churches are for the maintenance of this duty.

In New Testament, Jesus perfected all these roles, a mediator of the  perfect task between God and man, and today, he is the only one mediator superior to others. 1 Tim 2vs5, Heb. 3vs1-6. He is our new covenant. Heb 8vs6, 9vs15, 12vs24.

He has taken all the offices and combined it for our greater opportunity. Rom 3vs25, 1Jn 2vs2. He reconciled us to God and brought peace. Eph. 2vs12-17, Rom 5vs1. This office continued in His enthronement to heaven  in order to make a way for us as well. Heb. 7vs24-25, Rom 8vs34.

Performances of the task as mediators, to Christians is transferable because, we can stand in the gap for others well reaping and  harvesting the souls  for Christ. Let us at this season engage in this task, it can be individual, group work because the time is limited. The way has been bulk-dosed for us. Now the nature of  the work for us is by motivation and obedience.

A season like this is the best season for a true Christian that loved the kingdom. Your effort is blessed in Jesus Name.
