I FIND MYSELF, A LOST SHEEP đ
âWhat man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. – Luke 15:4-7â
â I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments. – Psalm 119:176â
Itâs not new when a sheep missing among the sheeps, you must leave the flocks and find the other missing one.
I was serving in among the youths members at a fellowship when the pastor have to decide the Coodinator but not base on the majority decision, even when they donât allow Holy Spirit to elect too. Itâs obviously that one of among the youths serving at the community that for this fellowship got attacked by the oppressing spirit, this is a very serious issue, instead of finding a way to give solutions and rescue him out of the descending evil spirit tormenting him, they choose to mocking and neglected him, formed tongues against him. Brain disorder is not something to joke with him, I donât blame him because heâs having a lot of sleepless night in all our day to days activities, they still ceased his working monthly allowance which he can used to buy a drugs or treating himself, Not received money which he can used to buy foods, nothing for almost two months before the matter arise, and his fellowship members doesnât look out to notice this, I moved close to him to understand the situation of his suddenly strange behavior but when the things going smoothly with his allowance before, they request for funds and force to get sum out of him from is regular allowance but the crises arising now. Iâm authentically among the fellow members serving the community and decided to check things out and accommodate at that fellowship there, though I still enough of two accommodations around, I donât choose to go for any position, I just try my best to backup things out and look cooperate as a Christian fellowship. They now decided to send him out of the fellowship accommodations. Whatâs really important is humility and humanity for me, itâs for us all to survive the moment of youth serving, the fellowship Coordinating members are eaten three times per dayâs apart from other provisional foods and snacks, theyâre swallowing and oppressing the fellow members too, they also get paid at fellowship which add to their allowances and getting all their additional allowances weekly and also for each month paying, still task enforcing on other fellow members which are not committee to cheat out of their allowance, most of this Committee members secretly hidden at beer parlor to have some drinks đș whereas Godâs see them, and some people witnessed this, and also put me to the suddenly incident that happened to this innocent guy which was strange to the other few fellowship members that are righteous and godly to look things around, at the time for prayer this young man were inconveniencing and his health not in good condition again to join the congregation, many reports came to me but I take it at my hands like a rumor and maybe theyâre trying to spoil this welfareâs and the coordinator image until I realize the truth that were detailed on here. I was chased out, with the other few righteous members that are against their evil doing, Iâm out of the fellowship because of this matter, thereâs a time that I allowed the Holy Spirit to use me to punish them, every sunday they declared it as a fasting day, we must break by 12pm, but I majorly observed that by 9am EXCOS meals were prepared on their table, which theyâll go for a casual prayer at one church behind the fellowship, and come back at 10:30 to have their meal eaten silently in the rooms, when other fellow members have the believe that theyâre fasting together, even other donât know what to eat, like this same innocent person which is allowance was refused to pay for him, among with few guys and other ladies but have studied their movement that day I now carried the meals for others in terrible hunger to feed themselves. I later returned and covered the left empty dishes on the table in their room to look like meal itâs still left inside it but remember I was use this illustration to know the actual time they usually eaten on Sunday and if theyâre fasting or not, to my surprise one of the secretary to the coordinator arrived in to the room at 10:am dot to secretly have his meal like they usually do before, but no food there again, we heard the sounded plates when he opened the dishes but if the foods was there heâll eat at that 10am morning of the moment of fasting.
âTake heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven. For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. – Matthew 18:10-14â
He canât control his hungry and anger again he need to ring the bell and announce on the altar of prayer which exposed them to the other fellowship members to know the exactly time theyâre hastening for foods. and people commenting on lot of thier misleading theyâre doing. âTHE SINS EXPOSED HIMSELFâ. âARE MINE A SAINT LIKE A THIEFâ. when they asked me did I eat from the food and I said I can pay for thier food and I paid them the worth of the meals even they donât use money to buy food. Finally what I realized is this if I donât chased out with the lost sheep whoâll find the lost sheep. The EXCOS doesnât care where the lost sheep will sleep, donât care for what the missing sheep will eat, donât care about his health condition. But God care for him, Godâs care for them and he cares for us too! But itâs late time when the fellowship coordinator later came to look for me and apologized, does he offended me, but God gave me power to forgive, but if they donât offend God who are mine?
