Accountability ☝️

Hello again (or for the first time). Welcome to another eye-opening(let your eyes open o😂) episode on the MOASS blog. Before we dive into today's topic, I want to say a happy birthday to two special friends/sisters of mine : Joan and Jessica Onotu. They are amazing and I pray that God blesses them immensely.

ACCOUNTABILITY!!!! That word is one that makes many uncomfortable. "How can I give someone else the right to call me to order?" I imagine in our society, based on the construct that men find it harder to submit themselves to the authority of someone else.

My brothers, listen carefully, YOU ARE NOT PERFECT, YOU NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO SOMEONE. This is not because you are weak but it makes you stronger and safer.

This not-so-secret secret is very key to maintaining purity and sanity in our Christian walk. I encourage everyone to have at least one accountability partner to unburden to. When you have struggles of any kind, after talking to God to help, you should prayerfully find a trustworthy friend to help keep you accountable.

As iron sharpens iron, so a person sharpens his friend.
Proverbs 27:17 NET

You should choose this person very carefully because accountability requires vulnerability and vulnerability with the wrong person is dangerous so again, ask God to direct you.

This principle of accountability is very simple but very potent. It helps keep us in check. I recently got an accountability partner (after seeking God's face) and so far, the relationship has helped me in unexplainable ways so waste no time!!. Get your accountability partner today (this is not a commercial 😂).

Remember however that you MUST be honest. Nobody can keep you accountable if you tell lies or half-truths. When you slip up, let them know and allow them correct you in love. It's a wonderful journey.

So confess your sins to one another and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great effectiveness.
James 5:16 NET

Dear Lord, we know that You did not purpose that we walk this road alone. Help us to find brethren to help us and that we may help in this walk of faith. Help us to be responsible and accountable to You and members of the body of Christ in Jesus' name.
