Horse Vs Ostrich
JOB 39: 13-25
■Horse
☆Horse has strength.
☆It is able to jump like a locust.
☆It snort so loudly that it scares people.
☆It is strong it scratching the ground with its feet.
☆It laughs at fear; nothing makes it afraid.
☆It does not run away from battle.
☆The horse gets very excited and races over the ground. When it hears the trumpet blow, it cannot stand still.
☆It can smell the battle from far away and hears the shouts of commanders with all the other sounds of battle.
This is how Christians should treat the gospel that God has given unto us. Let us not forget that we are in battle. Let us always open our ears to be able to hear the voice of God.
Let us always be alert at all times. Always be aware of your surrounding and the era that we are in. In this era that we are living in, we need to behave like a horse. This is the time to be strong and the time to draw strength from God.
■Ostrich
☆An ostrich get excited and flaps its wings, but cannot fly.
☆It lays her eggs on the ground and lets the sand to keep it warm.
☆It forgets that someone might step on her eggs or wild animals might break them.
☆It leaves her little babies and treat them as if they were not her own and if her babies die, she doesn't care that all her work was for nothing. You know why? Because God didn't give her wisdom. She is also foolish, God made her that way but when she gets up to run, she laughs at the horse and its rider, because she can run faster than a horse.
There are few characteristics of an ostrich we can learn from as Christians. As the children of the Most High, let us not be like an ostrich when God gives us assignment, gifts and the word of God, let us not forget that if we are not obedient, God can replace us.
Stay Blessed!!!
