Market Place

The topic i mentioned does not really related to the pasar pagi nor pasar malam.
But the real definition of market place.
Most of us are affected or i can say under the control of the market controller.
Even who those Christian are also under the influences of the market place.

Let make thing obvious, when most of us prefer to get Nike shoes than other brand.Why?
Even we go Petalling street oso we pick nike and not adidas. Why?
Let me start the beginning of Nike industry. They started as a sneaker company and keep push sales and advertisement. Then they got Michael Jordan to be their spokesman.
Now everyone in America wants to be like Him. Who don't want when basketball is their most trend sport event than baseball. If you were to put a focus on the man slam dunk post that was recently design. Don't that seem familiar wit on of MJ post?

From here we can see that why a no standard and no vision company can be this much impact to every one. From survey we can see that 70% of the young minds was affected by the spokesman influence. To be honest, i do have nike shoes and shirt. But what am i emphasizing here? Anti Nike?! No!

I want ppl to look into matthew 19; 16-29
There is a rich guy, he approached Jesus asked him whether will him be granted eternal life.
Jesus knew he had obeyed most of the Commandment but he asked him: for you to earn eternal life u have to keep the commandments.
The rich guy continue to answer with proud: which one? I done and obey what u had stated. I must i do?
Jesus followed said: To be perfect, go and sell all your possession to the poor then u shall receive the great treasure of heaven.
The rich guy did not answered and walk away with sadness.
The disciple asked if a ppl like him cant enter the gate of heaven who then can be saved?
Well i will stopped here while u guys continue to read on.

Ok the rich guy seem to obeyed all the rules but Jesus knew that he had broken one.
To make God the onli god.The rich guy had already make his possesion, his authority and everything his god. And this is the most important rules that mustn't be broken. That why it is hard for a rich men to listen to gospel. Which i can exampled it that a normal person won't consult a doctor.

We always prayed for the earthly stuff and we forgotten bout who the One that blessed us,
We always tend to think we obeyed much rules but we actually had broken the most important one.

But again the truth is, we must always acknowledge God with everything we had. Surrender what we had as they are origin no from us but the blessing of HIM.
So when people tell you, christian must not be rich, must not be influencing or must be always common.No! don be fooled by the lies of the enemy. A word from a christian brother or Pastor do not mean it is 100% right as we are still in this earth. No one is perfect but the heart of us that still learning the truth must always be the Judge.

Luke 6;12-16
Here it clearly said that to spread the gospel, we had to be impact to the market place.
We must be some one that always be needed by other.If we can impact the market place.
We can stand against the controller. From this verse we can see who ever Jesus had chosen are all from rich, in authority or had fame in his environment. Jesus knew who will be his apostle but still he prayed all night to God. Consult plan from him for the apostle choosing. And it came out the 12 person in this verse. They are ppl that can impact the market during that time.
Politician, tax collector, doctor, fisherman and more.

Be an influence , seek God.
Stand firm at the front line.
From there, followers will come.
Be an impact, extent the Kingdom, spread out the Glory.

This song is the song for this+
So I'll stand
with arm high and heart abandoned
In awe
for the one who gave it all
So I'll stand
my soul Lord to you surrendered
All I am is yours
