DON’T CRITICIZE WHAT YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND — VALUE GOD’S ANOINTED
..IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN MAKE TIME TO READ THIS ....

One of the greatest mistakes a believer can make is to join the world in attacking or dishonoring God’s anointed vessels. Don’t criticize people whose journey you don’t understand. You may not know the weight they carry, the pain they’ve endured, or the sacrifices they’ve made to answer God’s call. Every calling carries its own warfare. What a person carries in the spirit determines the battles they face in life and ministry.

Many times, the fiercest satanic attacks are not against the person, but against their assignment. Hell fights those who carry spiritual solutions. Satan doesn’t waste resources on empty vessels he targets anointed men and women because they carry answers, deliverance, healing, and transformation for generations.

Sadly, we live in a time where many in the Church have allowed offense, ignorance, and carnal judgments to make them tools in Satan’s hands, destroying instead of defending, criticizing instead of covering, tearing down instead of building up.

We must remember: Anointed men and women of God are still human. They are not perfect, but they are chosen. Spotting a man’s weakness is not a license to destroy his destiny. Remember , God is able to make him stand !!!

The Bible says in Psalm 105:15, "Touch not My anointed, and do My prophets no harm." This is not a suggestion, it is a warning. Many are battling unnecessary hardships and spiritual dryness because they dishonored, spoke against, or rose up against those God had sent to bless them.

Even Jesus Christ , the sinless Son of God could not do many miracles in His hometown, “because of their unbelief” (Matthew 13:58). Where there is dishonor, the anointing becomes unfruitful. The same Jesus who healed multitudes was limited among His own because they didn’t value Him.

When you reject a true man or woman of God, you reject what God sent through them for your lifting. As the Bible says in John 1:11-12: “He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God...”

A Call to the Church

It’s time for the Church to rise up and protect the gifts God has given us. Our pastors, prophets, evangelists, teachers, and apostles are not idols to be worshiped, but vessels to be honored, covered in prayer, and supported in love and loyalty.

Instead of gossiping, pray. Instead of judging from a distance, stand with them in truth. Instead of amplifying their faults, help carry the burden of their calling.

Hebrews 13:17 says: “Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account...”

The men and women of God are not perfect, but they are positioned. They may bleed, but they still bless. If we don’t value them, we will lose them—either to the grave or to other nations who recognize their worth.

Let us come together in unity—leaders and members alike—and focus on fulfilling the Great Commission. We are not in competition; we are in cooperation. Every joint supplies. Let us protect our fathers, honor our leaders, and walk as one people—co-laborers in the vineyard of the Lord.

A Final Word

If the enemy cannot destroy the shepherd, he scatters the sheep. Don’t be a tool in his hands. Be a shield, a helper, a burden-bearer, a loyal defender of God's work. God will hold us accountable not only for what we built, but also for what we helped destroy.

May God give us the wisdom and humility to honor His vessels, discern their worth, and fight alongside them to establish His kingdom on earth.

“If you receive a prophet in the name of a prophet, you will receive a prophet’s reward...” – Matthew 10:41

DONT BE PART OF ANY PLOT TO CAUSE ANOTHER MAN'S DOWNFALL

Ministry is a Sacred Calling -Ministry is not a battlefield for competition, envy, or sabotage. It is a holy assignment from God—a sacred trust to build, heal, and disciple. Yet in these last days, many have strayed from God’s heart. They rejoice at the fall of others, plot in secret, and take comfort in the failure of fellow laborers in the vineyard.

a. Hear this clearly:

Any attempt to destroy another man’s assignment, name, influence, or ministry for your own gain is a direct rebellion against God.

“Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.” – Galatians 6:7
“Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and he who rolls a stone will have it roll back on him.” – Proverbs 26:27
“Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.” – Psalm 105:15

When you plant seeds of destruction, gossip, betrayal, and manipulation, you are sowing a bitter harvest for yourself and your generations. No matter how anointed or gifted you are, God will not support a heart filled with malice.

b. Ministry is not a race to outshine others.

Ministry is not a competition; it is a commission. We are called to lift, not tear down. To build, not betray.

“If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.” – 1 Corinthians 12:26
“Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.” – Philippians 2:3

God did not call you to be the brightest star in the room—He called you to be faithful. The Body of Christ is one. When one part is wounded by another, the entire body suffers.

c. Stop the gossip. Stop the envy. Stop the secret plotting.

Even if others fall, your rise will not be blessed if it's built on the ruins of another’s destiny. Let the fear of God return to your heart. Let your conscience come alive again. Let genuine love flow once more.

“He who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a fool.” – Proverbs 10:18
“A perverse man sows strife, and a whisperer separates the best of friends.” – Proverbs 16:28

d. Beware: These Are the Last Days

This is no longer just about ethics—it’s about eternal consequence. The Bible warns that in the final days, betrayal, offense, and cold-heartedness will multiply—even among believers.

“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” – Matthew 24:12
“Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.” – 1 Timothy 4:1

e. Plotting against another minister in this prophetic hour is not just sin—it is spiritual treason.

The enemy is using division and slander as weapons to weaken the Church and distract it from the Great Commission.

“For men will be lovers of themselves…boasters… slanderers… traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.” – 2 Timothy 3:2–4

Ask yourself:

Will you be found as one who built the ark of salvation or as one who drilled holes in it during the storm?

f. Encouragement to the Righteous

Remain faithful. Keep your hands clean. Speak no evil of any man. Do not join circles that rejoice over failure. Heaven is watching. Your reward is coming.

“Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? He who has clean hands and a pure heart.” – Psalm 24:3–4
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” – Matthew 5:9
“Blessed is that servant whom his master will find watching when he comes.” – Luke 12:37

g. A Final Prayer of Purity

“Lord, deliver me from secret pride, hidden envy, and destructive ambition. Make me a true minister after Your heart. Help me rejoice in the success of others and be a vessel of peace in Your house. Amen.”

“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” – Psalm 51:10

h. Stay Awake—Eternity Is Closer Than You Think

We are living in prophetic days. The clock is ticking toward eternity. Let every word you speak, every thought you harbor, and every action you take reflect the fear of the Lord and the urgency of His coming.

“But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down... and that Day come on you unexpectedly.” – Luke 21:34

i. Final Charge

Be Kingdom-minded.
Live righteously.
Love purely.
Serve humbly.
Speak graciously.
Forgive quickly.
Pray fervently.

Do not be an agent of division. Be a minister of light, healing, and restoration. Heaven records every deed. And the Master is coming soon.

"They that know their God shall be strong and do exploits" – Daniel 11:32b

This is your season to rise! You are not called to be a spectator, but a history-maker. Through prayer, holiness, and faith, you will do mighty exploits for the Kingdom!

🔥 Know God. Be strong. Do exploits.

OVERCOMIMG LUST OF THE FLESH AS A MINISTER OF THE GOSPEL : The Trap That Destroys Great Men and Women

“But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.” 1 Corinthians 9:27 (ESV)

INTRODUCTION : The Hidden War Within

Behind pulpits, across platforms, and within the quiet chambers of prayer, a secret battle rages—not just against external forces, but against the desires within. Every man and woman called by God must face this ancient foe: lust.

Lust isn’t just a “private weakness”—it’s a ministerial cancer, a destiny thief, and a trap of disgrace. It has dethroned kings, silenced prophets, and turned once-anointed vessels into cautionary tales. What Goliath could not do to David, Bathsheba did. What armies could not do to Samson, Delilah did. The issue isn’t the strength of the devil—it’s the unguarded desires of the minister.

This is a call to every pastor, evangelist, apostle, bishop, and leader: lust will not only disqualify you—it will destroy everything you’ve built if it goes unchecked.

1. Understanding the Nature of Lust

Lust is not s*xual attraction; it is disordered desire that seeks to gratify self above honoring God. It distorts intimacy, rewrites God’s boundaries, and perverts holy desire into selfish indulgence.

“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.” — 1 John 2:1

1.. Lust promises pleasure, but delivers bo***ge. It often enters through:

a. Admiration that turns into flirtation

b. Late-night conversations that bypass emotional boundaries

c. Loneliness masked by ministry busyness

d. Private fantasies fed by public applause

Ministers are uniquely vulnerable. The praise of people can become an open door for seduction if not guarded by humility and spiritual discipline.

2. Why Lust Destroys Ministers

a. Lust is not just sin—it is sabotage. Its consequences echo beyond the bedroom:

b. It taints your anointing – The Spirit may still move, but your authority leaks.

c. It erodes your testimony – One fall can erase decades of faithfulness.

d. It empowers demons – Sexual sin opens doors to spiritual defilement.

e. It devastates your followers – People lose faith when leaders fall.

f. It misrepresents Christ – Ministers are Christ’s ambassadors; unrepented sin mars His image.

“The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.” Romans 2:24

3. The Body as a Sacred Altar

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit…?” 1 Corinthians 6:19–20

The minister’s body is not for casual indulgence. It is a sacred instrument, a vessel set apart for holy use. To defile it through lust is to offer strange fire on God’s altar.

What God gave as a gift (s*xuality), the enemy distorts into a snare. When your body becomes a tool of sin, you grieve the Spirit, and your authority is compromised.

4. Biblical Strategies for Victory

A. Radical Accountability

No one is too anointed to fall. But many fall because they are too proud to confess.

“Confess your sins to one another…” — James 5:16

Surround yourself with battle-tested believers—not flatterers, but truth-speakers. Build an environment of openness where sin cannot grow in darkness.

B. Daily Crucifixion of the Flesh

“Crucify the flesh with its passions and desires…” — Galatians 5:24

Lust dies when the flesh is starved. Daily prayer, fasting, and submission kill the root of self-will. Holiness is not accidental—it is intentional warfare.

C. Guarding Your Eyes and Ears

What enters your senses will shape your soul.

“I have made a covenant with my eyes…” — Job 31:1

Block explicit content.

Flee unnecessary intimacy.

Shut down flirty conversations.

Be vigilant—not legalistic, but wise.

D. Renewing the Mind

“Be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” — Romans 12:2

Don’t just resist temptation—replace it. Meditate on the Word. Memorize purity Scriptures. Speak truth over your emotions.

E. Pursue Intimacy with God

Lust thrives where God’s presence is absent.

When you’re filled with Him, there's no room for compromise. You don’t overcome lust with willpower alone—you conquer by loving God more deeply than you love your sin.

5. Ministry Wisdom: Guard Your Calling

Never minister from an empty soul. Refuel daily.

Travel with a companion. Avoid being alone with the opposite s*x.

Be transparent in weakness. Sin thrives in secrets.

Stay humble after victories. Success can make you careless.

Seek help early. Delay is deadly.

6. Restoration Is Real, But Painful

Yes, grace restores. But it never cancels consequences. David was forgiven, but his house bore the scars.

“Restore to me the joy… then I will teach transgressors…” — Psalm 51:12–13

Restoration requires:

Public repentance (if public sin)

Long-term accountability

Submission to leadership

Rebuilding trust over time

Don’t fake your healing—walk it out with trembling and truth.

7. Final Appeal: Choose the Cross Over Compromise

The devil is hunting ministers—not to hurt them, but to humiliate the Kingdom.

But there is a greater power than lust—the power of the blood, the cross of Christ, and the fire of the Spirit. God is raising a remnant of ministers who refuse to bow to lust, who live clean in a dirty world.

Let your private life be purer than your public preaching. Let us not become casualties, but champions of the cross.

PRAYER OF CONSECRATION :

Father,
We repent of every compromise, every secret sin, every moment we gave in to the flesh. Wash us. Purify us. Cleanse our hearts and our hands.
Set fire on every altar that has gone cold. Give us holy hatred for sin and holy hunger for You. Strengthen every minister under attack.
Where there is bo***ge, bring freedom. Where there is weakness, give power. Where there is shame, release healing. Raise a new generation of holy, burning, fearless ministers who will not preach one thing and live another. We choose the cross. We reject compromise. We say YES to consecration.
In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

SUMMARY OF ADDICTIONS :

Greater emotional weight (more passion, urgency, and fire)

Expanded theological and practical advice

Deeper prophetic tone (especially in the conclusion)

Stronger call to repentance and consecration

AN URGENT ENDTIME MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH

—A Missionary’s Wake-Up Call from the Frontlines—

Beloved Friends in Christ ,

I write to you with tears, not of despair, but of urgency. I write as a servant of the Lord, standing in the harvest field where millions are still waiting to hear the Gospel, even once.

While we celebrate growth in some places, more than 3 billion people in our world today are considered unreached, they have never heard the name of Jesus, not even once. Yet, many of us are tempted to believe, “The work is done.” No, it is not.

“The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” — Luke 10:2

This is not the hour to be idle. This is not the time to be silent. We are in the final stretch of human history. The birth pangs are intensifying. The signs are undeniable: war, lawlessness, moral collapse, deception, and spiritual coldness. These are not just headlines—they are divine alarms ringing across the nations.

“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” — Matthew 24:12

“But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.” — 1 Thessalonians 5:4

WAKE UP, CHURCH!

The Lord is calling His people to shake off spiritual slumber and rise in holy passion. Many in the church have become distracted by routines, addicted to comfort, and preoccupied with self-preservation, while souls perish daily.

“It is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.” — Romans 13:11

You were not saved to sit, but saved to be sent. You were not redeemed to be entertained, but empowered to be deployed. Now is the time to get involved in the work of God—praying, giving, preaching, going, serving, and interceding.

THE WORLD IS BLEEDING AND LOST

Every second, two people die—many of them without Christ.

Over 157,000 people die daily without knowing Jesus.

More than 70,000 villages in India alone have never heard the Gospel. How about your country ?

In regions of the Middle East, less than 0.5% are Christian.

Let that break your heart. Let it move you to action, not apathy.

“Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter.” — Proverbs 24:11 (NIV)

BE FAITHFUL IN THE FIGHT

In these final hours, the devil is doing everything to distract the Church—to divide, to discourage, to deceive. But now more than ever, we must rise as a bold, unashamed army of light.

“Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13

“Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.” — Daniel 12:3

We must preach the Gospel unashamedly. Let the world know: Jesus is the only Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). There is no plan B. Eternity is at stake.

“For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” — Romans 1:16

BE THE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

Don't blend in. Shine. Speak. Serve.
You were born for such a time as this. Don’t let fear or fatigue silence your testimony. Trim your lamp. Fill your oil. Let Him find you watching.

> “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” — Matthew 5:16
“Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.” — Matthew 24:42

LOVE AND UNITE

Let’s stop the petty divisions and self-centeredness. We need each other. The Body must be united in love and mission. The enemy loves a divided church—but the world is still waiting for a united witness.

“By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” — John 13:35

JESUS IS COMING — SOULS MUST BE SAVED!

Heaven is real. Hell is real. Time is short. The trumpet is about to sound. This is not a rehearsal—this is the final act. Jesus is not coming back for a sleeping bride but for one burning with oil, ready and working.

“Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.” — Revelation 3:11

“And this Gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.” — Matthew 24:14

l ARISE, CHURCH!

This is your moment. This is your hour. Let us be the generation that finishes the task, that shakes the nations, and that brings in the final harvest for our coming King.

May heaven find us faithful. May Christ find us working. May the world see Jesus in us.

In the service of the Lamb,
A Missionary from the Frontlines of the Great Commission

THE MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH

EVERY PASTOR NEEDS A TRUE FRIEND

— A Call to Covenant Relationships in the Final Hour —

In these perilous end times, where deception is on the rise, love is growing cold, and ministers are falling under pressure, the need for authentic, God-ordained friendships in ministry has never been more critical.

Not just acquaintances.
Not just church members.
Not just protocol officers or fans.

But a true friend — someone who walks with you in the shadows, not just the spotlight.

THE LONELINESS OF LEADERSHIP

Many pastors are admired publicly but suffer privately.
You preach hope but secretly battle despair.
You comfort others while hiding your own pain.
You carry the burdens of many, but who carries yours?

Jesus — our perfect example — surrounded Himself with people, yet He still needed friends in Gethsemane. He said, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow… Stay here and keep watch with me.” (Matt. 26:38)

Even the Son of God longed for human closeness in His darkest hour. Should we expect to need any less?

A TRUE FRIEND IN MINISTRY...

1. Covers your weakness, not exposes it
2. Warns you before sin finds you
3. Challenges your pride, not feeds it
4. Prays with groanings too deep for words
5. Knows your humanity and still honors your calling

Paul had Barnabas — a bridge when others doubted him.
David had Jonathan — loyal in love and truth.
Moses had Aaron and Hur — who held his arms up in battle.

Who holds your arms when you’re weary? Who strengthens your spirit when no one knows you're struggling?

WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS — AND THE PRESSURE IS RISING

The warfare is more intense.
The distractions are more subtle.
The betrayals are more painful.
The weariness is more real.

Many pastors are quitting. Many are falling. Some are even dying in silence.
Not because they don’t love God — but because they walked alone for too long.

You may have a thousand spiritual sons, but if you don’t have one covenant friend, you are vulnerable. You may have titles, followers, and power, but if you don’t have someone who knows the real "you" behind the pulpit, your soul is at risk.

THIS IS A CALL — FIND YOUR COVENANT FRIEND

God never intended you to run your race in isolation.
He didn’t call you to compete. He called you to complete one another.

“Two are better than one, for they have a good return for their labor. If either of them falls, one can help the other up.” — Ecclesiastes 4:9–10

Surround yourself with people who don’t need your pulpit to believe in your purpose.
Make room in your life for friends who aren’t impressed by your title, but burdened for your soul.

🙌 WHAT TO DO NOW

1. Pray: Ask God to send you a Jonathan or a Barnabas
2. Discern: Watch for those who love your soul, not your stage
3. Open up: Share with maturity — stop pretending to be okay
4. Reciprocate: Be to others what you need in this hour

THE FINAL HOUR DEMANDS AUTHENTIC CONNECTIONS

This is not the time to isolate. The trumpet will soon sound. Souls are perishing. Shepherds are bleeding. Wolves are lurking.

You cannot afford to be surrounded by shadows while calling it a crowd.

Every pastor needs a true friend. Before it’s too late.
Before you burn out. Before you fall. Before you quit.

FINAL SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

“Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” — Proverbs 27:6

“Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.” — Proverbs 27:9

BETRAYALS IN MINISTRY : Biblical Examples, Modern Lessons, and Encouragement for Pastors

A. Understanding Betrayal in Ministry

Betrayal is one of the most painful experiences in ministry. It often comes from those closest to us—trusted friends, spiritual sons and daughters, co-laborers in the faith. While it can be deeply wounding, betrayal is not new; it is a common challenge for those called by God. Jesus Himself experienced it, as did many great leaders in the Bible.

B. Biblical Examples of Betrayal

1. Judas Iscariot Betrays Jesus (Luke 22:47-48)
Judas, one of Jesus' twelve disciples, betrayed Him for thirty pieces of silver. This betrayal was particularly painful because Judas had walked with Jesus, witnessed His miracles, and shared in His ministry. Yet, he chose personal gain over loyalty. Jesus responded with grace, still calling him "friend" (Matthew 26:50), showing us how to handle betrayal with love and wisdom.

2. Absalom Betrays David (2 Samuel 15:10-14)
King David’s own son, Absalom, conspired against him, stealing the hearts of the people of Israel. David fled from Jerusalem, deeply wounded by his son’s actions. This teaches us that betrayal can come from within our own family or close associates, but God’s justice prevails in the end.

3. Demas Abandons Paul (2 Timothy 4:10)
Demas, a companion of Paul, abandoned him, choosing the pleasures of the world over ministry. This reminds pastors that some people will walk away when ministry gets tough. Paul, however, did not allow Demas' actions to stop him from fulfilling his mission.

C. Modern-Day Betrayals in Ministry :

Betrayal in today’s ministry can take different forms:

Disloyalty from close associates – A trusted assistant or co-pastor who turns against you, spreading false accusations.

Church splits – A once-loyal church member leaves and takes others with them, damaging relationships and trust.

Gossip and slander – Individuals who once praised your leadership suddenly begin speaking against you.

Financial misconduct – A trusted treasurer or leader misuses church funds, bringing scandal and division.

These betrayals can be discouraging, but they must not define your ministry.

D. Practical Lessons for Pastors :

1. Expect Betrayal, but Stay Focused
Jesus knew Judas would betray Him but continued His mission. Pastors must understand that betrayal is inevitable, yet it should not derail their calling.

2. Guard Your Heart, but Don’t Become Bitter
Proverbs 4:23 advises us to guard our hearts. Bitterness will poison your spirit and hinder your ministry. Forgiveness is crucial, even when trust is broken.

3. Surround Yourself with True Counsel
Just as Jesus had Peter, James, and John, every pastor needs a circle of trustworthy, Spirit-filled friends who provide wise counsel and encouragement.

4. Learn from the Experience
Ask yourself: What lessons can I draw from this betrayal? Sometimes, betrayal exposes hidden weaknesses in leadership structures or misplaced trust.

5. Keep Your Integrity Intact
Do not retaliate. Let God fight for you (Romans 12:19). Uphold integrity and trust God to handle the betrayer.

6. Pray for Your Betrayers
Jesus prayed for those who persecuted Him. Prayer helps to release hurt and aligns your heart with God’s will.

7. Move Forward in Purpose
Paul continued preaching despite Demas' betrayal. Focus on your God-given assignment. The enemy uses betrayal to distract you—don’t let it work.

E. Encouragement for Betrayed Ministers :

To every pastor or minister who has faced betrayal: You are not alone. God sees your pain and will vindicate you in His time. Remember:

Joseph’s brothers betrayed him, but he still fulfilled his destiny. (Genesis 50:20)

David was betrayed but remained a man after God’s heart. (Acts 13:22)

Jesus was betrayed but became the Savior of the world. (John 3:16)

Betrayal may wound you, but it cannot stop the plan of God for your life. Rise above it. Keep serving. Keep trusting. God is your rewarder.

Final Word

Ministry is a calling that comes with great joy but also great trials, including betrayal. While painful, these experiences shape and refine us. Every betrayal is an opportunity for growth, deeper dependence on God, and a greater anointing. Stay faithful, and God will turn every betrayal into a testimony of His faithfulness.

BE WISE IN YOUR DEALINGS AS A PREACHER !

I’m often asked why I don’t showcase our ministry’s achievements on social media, and many are eager to know what’s happening behind the scenes. In 2014, I made the decision to decline 90% of my external invitations to focus fully on my core assignment. This choice freed me from stress, unhealthy competition, and other distractions.

Instead, I invested my time in writing, church planting, and the quiet building of our ministry. Although I lost some friends who assumed I was “failing” in ministry, the truth is I have achieved more in these recent years than ever before. Our accomplishments are significant, but sharing them could attract fake friends and insincere people.As much as some will be encouraged , things must be done properly at the right time .

Our generation often loves the spotlight and the end results but lacks appreciation for the process. Many chase recognition, measuring success by personal standards rather than God’s. Some even go so far as to “buy” connections for quick validation. But true growth comes in private moments, through steady, faithful work.

Work quietly, and let God be your promoter. Avoid the temptation of social media hype. Use these platforms only when needed, not to feed your ego or expose yourself prematurely. Too much boasting only invites unnecessary enemies. Be wise, fulfill your calling, and remember that social media is a tool, not the standard by which your success is measured.

THE ABOVE ARE DIVIDED INTO 7 POINTS :

1. Avoids Unnecessary Competition and Distractions

When you work silently, you stay focused on your God-given assignment without the pressure of comparison or competition. Publicizing achievements often draws others into a race for recognition, which can distract you from your true calling.

Bible Verse: "Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another" (Galatians 5:26).

2. Protects Against Fake Friends and Pretenders

Sharing every detail about your progress or achievements can attract people who are more interested in your success than your relationship. Building in silence helps you discern who truly supports your mission versus those who are drawn only by results.

3. Reduces the Pressure to Please Others

In a world where people often expect quick results, building in silence lets you work at the pace God has set for you without trying to meet anyone else’s expectations. This reduces stress and helps you focus on what truly matters.

Bible Verse: "Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God?" (Galatians 1:10).

4. Encourages Growth Through Humility

Keeping your achievements low-profile nurtures humility and allows God to shape you. Silent growth reflects a heart that values character over reputation, staying close to God’s timing for recognition rather than human applause.

5. Protects You from Premature Exposure

Sharing too much too soon can expose you to critics and enemies who may hinder your progress. Building in silence keeps your work protected and maturing until it’s strong enough to withstand external pressures.

Bible Verse: "Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires" (Song of Solomon 8:4). Although this refers to love, the principle of waiting for the right time applies universally.

6. Allows for a Strong Foundation

Working quietly gives you time to lay a solid foundation in your ministry or any project. Rather than focusing on appearance, it allows you to ensure that the work is deeply rooted and prepared for long-term success.

7. Let’s God Be Your Promoter

Silent work invites God to lift you up in His own timing and way, making the results more authentic and free from ego. As you focus on the process, you can trust that God will elevate your efforts when the time is right.

Bible Verse: "Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time" (1 Peter 5:6).

Conclusion

Social media and public displays of success can be positive, but they must be used wisely and for God’s glory rather than self-promotion. When you build in silence, you avoid pitfalls like premature recognition, unhealthy comparisons, and superficial relationships. Instead, you allow God to strengthen your work, reveal it when it’s ready, and ensure that you’re focused on His approval, not people’s.
