Control Your Stuff

by Hajj Flemings

In a world of mixed messages, changing standards and broken promises people are looking for a lifestyle, a new standard of living, that is ….  Without you society is left to look at 50, Kanye, Kobe, and others to define successful living.  Why not put your imprint on life, your neighborhood and your school?

At no other point in our history has the urban youth inspired influence been greater, now the world is awaiting your entrance.  Will a whole generation be lost?  God has branded His people (made them in His image) and identified a healthy lifestyle that needs the breath of the youth movement to breathe life into it. 

The message that I am talking about is called 'Control Your Stuff', the guilt-free abstinence lifestyle.  I am not here to sell you a canned message that I read about, a message that someone else shared with me, or just something that I feel is a novel concept.

I am talking about a

lifestyle that I have lived. 

Control your stuff is an abstain til' marriage message that I have lived and that I am challenging you to live.  This message is about keeping your stuff tight and being a person of character whose life becomes a voice that speaks volumes about successful living without saying a word.

Society continues to chase after worthless pursuits to capture or become something that will ultimately become their demise.  True success goes beyond chasing fantasies to pursuing visions that require patience, time, sacrifice, sweat and tears. 

What is success to you?  

Is it some unrealistic man made image that you entertain or a solid, clear, concise vision that balances your values, believes, and dreams.  

 “Control your Stuff” is a lifestyle that allows you to be consumed with the mission that God has called you to fulfill in this time.  As Peter Drucker says, 'Know thy time.'  Knowing your time enables you to work with purpose to move and complete your assignment focusing on preparing yourself to be in position to completely, thoroughly, and effectively carry-out every detail of your mission within your season.

God has called you to

live an undefeated lifestyle.

God has created and branded His people to be separate and set apart, in I Peter 2:9, the Bible says, “…that we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people”. 

The world shouldn't have to look to athletes, entertainers, watch videos, or download songs to identify success. 

As believers we should be the most consistent and prosperous people on this planet and set the standard of successful living. 

". . . For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."-  I Corinthians 6:18-20 NKJV
