Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – Being Different To Make A Difference

Topic: Being Different To Make A Difference [Seeds Of Destiny 30 November 2019 Devotional]

You cannot make a difference until you are different

SCRIPTURE: “Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you” – 2 Corinthians 6:17.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You cannot make a difference until you are different

To be different is to be distinct in quality and nature from the rest.

It has been confirmed that, you cannot make a difference until you are different. And until your nature is different your future can never be different.

As believers in Christ we are called to be different from the rest of the people of the world. The believer is to be markedly different from the unbeliever as light is from darkness. But amazingly, it is now difficult to differentiate a believer from an unbeliever especially in conduct.

The same way an unbeliever cheats in an example, for example, some ‘Christians’ would also cheat. I have heard that most people would prefer to do business with an unbeliever (even someone from the other religion) than to do business with some Christians. What an upside down arrangement!

One day, I was in an aircraft and a man who sat next to me was making a phone call and he said; ‘O yes, I’m speaking to you from Lagos now’ meanwhile we were at the Abuja airport! I was so amazed! The unfortunate thing is that Christians are doing the same thing – lying up and down. The question is, what kind of salvation did you receive that didn’t change your character when you “gave” your life to Him?

Beloved, that it is popular does not make it proper. That the whole world is doing it does not make it right either. The standard of God remains sure.

Please be different in order to have a different destiny in this sinking world.

You shall make it, in Jesus’ Name.

REMEMBER THIS: You cannot make a difference until you are different.

ASSIGNMENT (S):

Ensure that you make the word of God your standard not man.
Determine to be clearly different in character from unbelievers or lukewarm Christians

For Further Understanding, Get This Message: The Essence of Christianity

PRAYER: Lord, I ask for forgiveness in any area I conformed to the world’s system or compromised the Kingdom principles in time past. I make demands for Your Grace to be clearly different from the world. Help me to come out clearly for You Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
