The Numb

Numb is the inability to be able to think, feel or react normally because there is a deformation in either knowledge or wrong mindset. It is a malfunctioning or faulty knowledge about yourself which could result in you underestimating yourself and not living up to expectation. It is the inability to recognize you have a problem when you actually have one. It is lack of sensation. It is a state where you become so frightened that you can’t move or you become so insensitive. It is the state of being asleep.

I remember when I removed a tooth, about 3-4hours after the surgery I could not feel that part of the mouth and it was as if that part of my mouth was dead. Let’s come down to a common experience, you would have experience leg cramp, that moment you cannot feel your leg, I remember I would keep hitting the leg on the ground till I am able to feel the leg. When you deactivate a part of you, it rubs off on your true identity, don’t let the inner critic voice get you to the state of numbness. You are great, unique, important, and useful, you have lots of hidden potentials inside of you still yet to be unveiled and has kept you in the state you are. I was at that state of numbness and I have woken up some part and still waking up others, it’s very important that you wake up the sleeping greatness just lying there inside of you.

A story was told of a man who had numb in his hand, then on a faithful day, this man’s hand caught fire and he did not realize that it was getting burnt simply because he could not feel the hand and lucky enough someone came to his rescue. Could it be that where you are is as a result of numbness? What kills a man is not the problem or issue but the inability for the man to recognize the issue or problem. No wonder the bible says that my people perish for lack of knowledge. There is a light that needs to spark up in you and when it does, it lightens up the world and makes it a beautiful place.

There are many things that can make you become numb, it could be trauma, heartbreak, disappointment, failures, lack, but you must not remain there. God created you for a special and unique reason, it’s time to wake up from the numb, discover who you are, what God has deposited inside of you and begin to live them out.

You would have told yourself certain things like what’s life all about, I am tired of life, I am just useless, or good for nothing, you would have even felt so bad about failing or having heartbreak and gone to the state of depression but that’s not you, you only allowed your true identity go into the state of numb, it’s time to spark it up, it’s time for an ignition of who you really are, it’s time to ignite the engine and start the journey of purpose and living out what the manufacturer encoded inside of you. Stay tune for next week's post on "The Ignition". You are going to start the vehicle and move unto the journey of who you are and what you were created to do. You have slept too long in the place of self-pity and false identity, friend you got to wake up, stand up from the bed and get dressed and let us go to work.
