Esau

11/22/2002

Esau lived by the moment, and by what his flesh wanted. His desire for larger Issues was too weak and undeveloped to give him the needed strength to CHANGE. He died in his sin, for lack of cultivating a strong desire for the Right things, and by yielding to his flesh moment by moment. He was a slave to foolish, wasteful, pathetic self-centeredness. He was not a “victim.” He arrogantly did what pleased him, with little sacrifice and little effort in cultivating a larger vision than his self-absorbed moment.

Cultivate Desire for what pleases Jesus, and live for that larger Picture!

“WE make it our undying passion to PLEASE HIM” (2Cor.5:9).

“Without Vision, the people perish, throw off restraint, self-sacrifice” (Pr.29:18).

Cultivate DESIRE! Feed your spirit in time at His feet, and the Throne and the Cross. CULTIVATE your thoughts and vision in intimate “all things intertwined” (“Koinonia”) with Him and those in whom He lives. And, you shall LIVE, and you shall Grow “from glory to Glory”!

Walk your talk.
