The Almighty Father wants His sons and daughters to be like Him, excellent in all His ways. As sons and daughters of the Kingdom, we represent Him through, the Son, in every thing we do, in every aspect of our lives. For this reason, the Father revealed the message of the Revolution of Excellence, where wisdom, knowledge and understanding are to be sought far more than gold and any material thing in the world.
Green vs Yellow
The revolution of excellence was given to Pastor Apollo in a vision, where he was like the prophet Ezekiel facing a host of human brains. Out of that group, four green ones which stood out from among those which were yellow. A voice inside told him that the green ones are those which were renewed and transformed into the image of the Father through His Appointed Son by the Revolution of Excellence.
"Do you believe that these yellow ones will turn out as green?" Pastor Apollo asked .
"It will as you said, Father," I replied.
There is a great responsibility each one of us will bear as we move on to practice excellence in every thing we do. All of our talents, abilities and skills would be useless if it falls short of being excellent. The Father, through His Son, is not contented with what is good, bett er or best, but He wants us to be excellent above all. This does not mean perfectionism, since it leaves no room for improvement. Doing what is excellent means not sett ling on mediocrity but a consistent and persistent struggle to do what is superlative or the fi nest at any given situation. Wisdom is the most important factor in becoming excellent in the Father's Kingdom.
How can I become excellent?
We become excellent in the sight of the Father through wisdom. The Father gives wisdom to those who fear Him and forsake evil. Wisdom comes from having a Father and Son relationship with the Almighty Father. Obedience to His words – His commands, laws and teaching will make us wise.
The Father will give us His wisdom when we ask for it, as James 1:5 tells us: " If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." You can also look at the whole book of Proverbs, which is a collection of wise sayings from Solomon. Once we acquire wisdom, then excellence will surely follow!
Will obedience and sacrifice make me excellent?
Yes! Sons and daughters are people in training. The goal of their training is to become like the Father through His Appointed Son. One distinguishing mark of being a son or a daughter of the Father is to live a life of sacrifice and surrender and absolute obedience to the Father's will, "Father, not my will but thine be done in my life, no matter what."
A son or a daughter has to give up every attachment to connect himself to the work of the Father through the Son. "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth aft er me, is not worthy of me," Mathew 10: 37 – 38.
A son or a daughter lives his life under the authority of the Word of God through the message of the Appointed Son of God. "If ye continue in my word, then ye are my disciples indeed," John 8: 31.
Absolute obedience to the Father's perfect will, through the message of the Son, deepens one's relationship with the Almighty Father. Constant and daily asking "Father, what is your will for me today, through your Son?" gives him knowledge, wisdom, as well as power. This is where excellence comes in.
Once we get rooted to the Words of the Father through the Son, we become aware of the Father's will to rule our life. When we have this sensibility, we develop an inner consciousness that will tell us to become excellent in all things for His glory.
