When Things Happen Right, They Happen in Order

A Shout out to Metro Community College and all the students who shared with us the opportunity for our first live video shoot and interview this past Tuesday. I am excited about what God is doing with our group and who He is bringing in our path to help us along the way. During this experience, I was thinking about how important it is to be ready for when God calls people to help you go to the next level. I was reminded of a note I wrote down in church the other day during Pastor Martin Williams sermon, What Makes Us Great. He mentioned that when things happen right, they happen in order.

It is so important to have our entire lives in order, so that when God sends someone or something your way to assist you, you are ready to receive it. In the process of these students preparing for our video shoot and interview they had to go out and research who we were and what we stood for in order to take the right shots, ask the right questions, and have the right audio setup. Because we took the time to put our image in order via our website, well recorded CD’s, and professional biography/videos, they were able to jump right in the path of where God is taking us and use their talents to enhance what God is doing with our group. So many people who want to pursue a career in music jump right into selling CD’s and recording videos to post on YouTube in an effort to “get themselves out there”. But I encourage people who want to succeed at anything to be diligent and do it in order. When order is in place, many of the dreams you once chased will begin to chase you!

Start off by getting your personal life right with God and following after Him, seeking His wisdom on how to use the gift He put inside of you. You can’t say, “I want to rap for God” on Sunday, then go clubin’ on Friday. That’s out of order. Take time and enhance your life and your gift to where it can dramatically bless others (Practice, white, read, learn). Make it about helping others, as appose to what you can get out of it. And lastly be anxious only for wisdom and knowledge from God. These things are otherwise defined as order, and will launch you into the things you dream about. We are experiencing new heights in ministry every day, but know it’s only because we have gained favor with the people around us through doing things in order.
