How sharp is your signal?

In those days, most houses used externally hung antennae for their television sets. Even though antennae are still being used today, it is much easier to use with improved technology; some of these come with a remote control where directions can be changed to boost signals at the comfort of the living room, others only need one adjustment during installation and the signal remains strong except for bad weather or a deliberate shift in signal positions.

Just like how the quality of TV broadcast depends on the strength of the signal it receives, so also do we humans totally depend on information. As the saying goes, knowledge which is factual information is power. Excellence in simple language is having the right information plus the capacity to act plus acting if coined into an equation.
Excellence = Right Information +Capacity to Act +Action
Without accurate information, decision making becomes a tedious and an energy-sapping task. Daily we are faced with choices; who to marry, what career to undertake, where to stay, what business to do, when to invest and many more that has given some the opportunity to create another business- a fortune telling business.
It is not a bad idea to consult others, however, in consulting others, many have incurred more problems and many have made mistakes with serious consequences. Husbands have been named the downfall of their wives, parents have become witches and wizards over night and medical issues seem to make more sense with spiritual sources. Imagine that a prophet after praying for a youth told him he has seen that he has two girl friends presently (light and dark complexion) and he should be careful of the dark one because he can lead to unwanted pregnancy but he can continue with the light one, it will not result to any complications. The prophet turned himself to such a human contraceptive.
It is worse because some of us, the so called believers are patronizing fake prophets (including prophets with signals from Satan). Rather than fast and pray for direction, we would rather check it out with “baba ye mi wo” (Herbalist). When the Spirit of Truth is to guide us into all truth both present and future according to John 16:13.
How sharp is your signal? Do you receive from God or you have refused to develop yourself to that level. Sometimes, our signals can be so poor that we cannot even differentiate these fake and real prophets and this make us prone to heresies, lies and deceits.

Every child of God is entitled to hear from the Holy Spirit. It may take some time, but it is your heritage in the lord. Spend quality time with the Holy Spirit, and your day will be settled. Remember there is a spirit (breath) in man, the inspiration (Holy Spirit) of the Almighty gives him understanding (Job 32:8). The secret things belong to God; those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever! Revelation is also your heritage!
