Child of God, you ought to live wisely in this perverse generation. You shouldn’t leave your labour to know the Lord intimately to chance. Because, I tell you, it won’t happen by automation. And the more you know God, the more you will be free from deception. May the Lord be your light.

To seek from the Lord means to persist in prayer about the same request unto Him. On top of that, that person doesn’t give up on that request until heaven grants it to him. That should be part and parcel of your life as a child of God, especially if you are a minister and you need some dimensions of grace to flourish in ministry well.

Never stop working. You can retire from your workplace, but don’t go and sit home doing nothing. Otherwise, your potential will be wasted. As you age, you won’t be able to go at the pace young people go. So, reducing your workload and training people to replace you as you gain more experience is wise. But always find something worthwhile doing. It will help you to cultivate what is in your hands—gifts, talents and creativity.

Jesus said if a tree is good, then its fruit is good. Consequently, if a tree is bad, its fruit will also be bad. Interpreting this in relation to people’s behaviour implies that a sinner remains a sinner because sin is inherent in him. But the saved are righteous because God confers His righteousness to those who accept Jesus as Lord and personal Saviour (see Romans 10:9).

Usually, people think those tagged as evil don’t need the message of salvation. But I tell you, they do. If that politician doesn’t receive Christ, won’t the devil manipulate their minds to govern the nation in evil ways, which will, in turn, affect us believers? Don’t be deceived, dear preacher. Evangelising to people, no matter their status in life is very important.

Make time for people – both impromptu interruptions and scheduled appointments. It will help you minister to the needs of people individually, as many as you are able. Nevertheless, prioritise your safety, integrity, and health, lest anyone try to take advantage of your sincerity and soil God’s work in your hands.

You cannot have an impactful ministry if you speak like a toddler before people, even if God has anointed you. No! You need divine authority to fuel your charisma to lead and teach God’s people entrusted in your hands.

According to Jesus in Matthew 6:1, anyone who practices his righteousness (interpreted as benevolence) before others with the aim of attracting public applause will have no reward from the Father in heaven. Think about that! If you fail to give God’s way, you lose resources because God won’t reward you for your deed. Mercy!

Since Jesus gave these gifts to men, it’s clear that not everyone in Christ has the same gift. 1 Corinthians 7:7 tells us that each has his own gift in Christ. So, if the gifts are diverse, then each believer’s function in the body of Christ is different. That means that when it comes to ministry, some will represent Christ using their gifts in full-time ministry and others in the lay ministry.

Whatever God calls you to do, He supplies the grace to fulfil it. So, maybe you’ve been slack in doing something He told you to do or have delayed. But, just as scripture has said, please do not receive God’s grace in vain in your journey to fulfil your calling.

In Christ, Jesus is your Lord. So you are under His authority. You must live like Him. But the good news is that He knows you cannot do that on your own strength. So what? He gives you the grace to live like Him.

No matter what work you do, you must insist on spending time with the Lord regularly. When you do that, it’ll help you to be renewed in your inner man each day. As a matter of fact, it enables you to work more effectively than any ordinary unbelieving worker.
