There are places where quota system stands as a rule. It could be in your quest for employment or admission into a National Institution of Learning. When the quota allocated to your state of origin is filled, no matter how good your performance is, you are turned down. It is not because you are not qualified, but the rule has to be maintained. Many who are not qualified are drafted in, all in a bid to make for a fair representation of every segment of the national life. Some deny their states of origin in a bid to be considered for such opportunities.
There is a kingdom where such a quota does not exist. It is the kingdom of God! Scriptures affirm that, “In every nation, he that feareth Him, and worketh in righteousness, is accepted with Him”. With God; “there is no Greek nor Jew, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision, Babarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all” Colossians 3:11.
In the kingdom of God; there is none known as a Nigerian, and American or a German. Everyone in the kingdom is named after the LORD. This is what qualifies you as God’s own property and it comes by a lifestyle with a clear departure from evil. The Bible says – “The Lord knoweth them that are His and let everyone that nameth after the name of the Lord, depart from iniquity” 2 Timothy 2:9.
It doesn’t matter how many people there are, from a particular location that have clearly departed from iniquity; all can be the LORD’s. It doesn’t matter still, how many in any particular location that have chosen for themselves the path of iniquity; all can be doomed. With God, there is no variableness.
The fear of God in departing from evil is what counts. In the kingdom of God, there is no limit to what you can personally enjoy from God. Scriptures affirm that; “the Just shall live by his faith” Habakkuk 2:4. It’s all a matter of what you can believe for yourself. For Abram, it was as far as he could see.
Our God is a God of just. You shall be judge based on what you have done. The lord watches us all and know what we have done. No run and no justification. Been Good is Good and been bad is been baas. There is no level of bad or God when it comes to God.
I agree.
