TOPIC: THE BORIS YELTSIN KEY: CHAMPIONS ARE PEACEMAKERS!
Be reminded that Tsar Nicholas II, the last emperor of Russia and his entire family, were shot and killed at Yekaterinburg by the Red Guards in 1918 nearly a year after Lenin and the Bolsheviks seized power in the Russian revolution. Eighty years later however, Boris Yeltsin then, as Russian president in 1998, led his nation in an official apology for the murder of the Tsar at a moving ceremony in the Cathedral of the Peter and Paul Fortress where his Romanov ancestors were buried! Watched by millions of Russians, Yeltsin stood in sombre silence before the grave and said, “The Yekaterinburg massacre has become one of the most shameful pages of Russian history.” The key emphasis of our devotional today and God’s message to someone using this devotional is that: “It is never too late to say, ‘I am sorry!” It took the Russians 80years to apologize! It took God about 4000 years to reconcile fallen man to Himself! If you want to rise in life and ministry, you must be a quick peacemaker! Who can you remember offended you or who do you think is offended because of you? Achievers are people who are strong enough to take the first step to mend fences! That is the blood genotype that runs in the family of heavenly citizens! Did God not take the first step towards us? Don’t you have His blood group? Whether you think you are right or wrong, take a step to reconcile with those who have offended you and be quick in reconciling others, wherever you are! Be known as an aggressive peacemaker! This is one of the uncommon virtues of champions( Verses 23 – 24 of our basic scripture)! Champions are big enough to dislocate pride and small enough to locate humility! You can say to someone, “I am sorry!” It is a powerful key for your increase! Thomas Fuller it was who said, “He that would have the fruit must climb the tree.” Take the first step! Never forget what Mr Montaigne proclaimed, “The conduct of our lives is the true mirror of our doctrine.” Do you still believe the Bible? Do you still believe in heaven? Be an aggressive peacemaker like Boris Yeltsin!
