The wickedness and entanglement with unrighteousness you see in our present world had been initiated way back before you ever even came to the scene. Moreover, the whole sequence of events that would ensure that you partake of what the enemy had initiated was carefully designed to the minutest detail. For instance, by Adam's disobedience, all men came under the control of sin. The fact that you are struggling in sin now is evidence that the enemy who induced the disobedience of Adam saw you as well in the blueprint for disobedience. It would seem as though the enemy was thinking of you when he was tempting Adam to fall. A chain reaction started at the point of Adam's disobedience that would account for all men, making certain that no one escapes the effect and nature of disobedience. It is also important that we know that just as disobedience was carefully designed to reach and be expressed by all men, Salvation had also been reserved for all men before the foundation of the world and that the path to this attainment was secured even before disobedience ever came to the scene. The naturalness that we find with men's capacity to work disobedience did not come just in the twinkling of the eye. This came as a result of the work that disobedience did in the earth: a work of culturing the earth to make it viable for sin to thrive. When Satan wants to culture a place (soul or community) he would first send the spirit of disobedience who will then groom such until it becomes natural to disobey. The world is the product of an earth that has been cultured by disobedience. This earth we find now is not that which was created in the beginning by God. This present earth is an aberration; a deviation from the original intent of the Creator. The earth that was at the beginning was meant to be a place to grow the sons of God. That destiny of the earth stills hangs over it because the earth will not pass away until it is able to grow sons of God that are after the original blueprint of God: sons after the order of the last Adam, even Christ. The way to achieve this is also going to be through culturing the earth by obedience to produce a righteous environment. This is the reason for the coming of Jesus: the revelation of Christ and the preaching of the gospel of Christ. The revelation and teaching of the righteousness of Christ is very essential as that is the only medium by which the earth can be cultivated to make it conducive enough to produce sons of righteousness such as was found with and in Christ. Every believer is a potential son. The more a believer is taught the righteousness of Christ, the higher the possibility of such attaining sonship. Jesus was sown as a seed of righteousness so that GOD can reap for himself from the earth many more seeds of righteousness. Sons are seeds. There's a particular number of seeds/sons that the earth would produce that will bring to fulfillment the destiny of this earth and which will bring a closure to the order of this present earth and the things therein. The earth is waiting for YOU and I to help it fulfill the purpose for her creation by our obedience to the revelations of the righteousness of Christ through the gospel.

My obedience is not first of all about me but about fulfilling the intention of God for the earth. Every step I take in obedience is important.
Thank you so much, Pastor
