BREAKTHROUGH SEEDS: OPPOSITION IS THE TEST OF A GREAT VISION

It is amazing how many people expect to accomplish great things with little or no opposition. Because they are not expecting opposition, they usually overact or blow it completely out of proportion when they encounter opposition.

Nobody talks about a nonentity. No one opposes a nobody, There is no opposition as long as you are not doing something substantial with your life.

"Ye are of God, little children and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world"

1 John 4:4

But decide to do something with your life and you will see all hell break loose, your friends become your enemies.

Your relatives become your adversaries. In places where approval was taken for granted, it will no longer be there. Do not become preoccupied with the opposition. Master your opposition and do not let your opposition master you. Whatever you allow to dominate your thoughts and mind is what will eventually begin to manifest in your life.

It is so easy to magnify the obstacle. Obstacles will move away when you refuse to give in to it. The worst possible way to treat your adversaries is to take them too seriously.

The greatest tribute you can give to your adversaries is to allow them to distract you. It is important to recognize that the important reason for opposition to an idea. or a vision is to distract you.

When you are distracted, the purpose of the opposition has been served.

You can't be defeated until you are distracted. This is a powerful tool of the enemy. The enemy knows he can't defeat you all by himself. That is why he uses 'devices.' Distraction is one of his strongest and most powerful devices to defeat the believer. You need to see through the enemy so that you can be victorious. We can see this truth illustrated in the life of Nehemiah.
