Dear one, if you want something in your life, especially something costly, do not think you will get it for free. You are going to pay for it. Sometimes, the price you pay for such things may not necessarily be money, but others, like time and very hard godly sacrifice.
As soon as you are saved, God sets you on a race of faith in Christ. That is why Hebrews 12:2 says Jesus is the author and finisher of your faith. So, because of that, you must be determined to finish your course strong in the Lord. Maybe let me break it down.
No matter how big the vision God has given you, it will take work, not just prayer, to reach that height of kingdom influence. Aside from all the prayers you sow into the work God has entrusted into your care, do not forget to labour effectively. Go for wisdom. Research things you don’t understand that are related to your calling, so that you’ll not be bankrupt of the intellectual property you need to soar higher in the realm of kingdom influence.
What does it mean to arise, and what does it mean to shine? Am I living in the light? This and many more questions that might boggle your mind upon reading the topic will be discussed subsequently.
Be watchful over your life. Focus on pleasing God, not men. Whatever you do, people will talk. So, if you really want to walk in obedience to God, accept the truth that your actions will not please everyone. Even Jesus’ actions didn’t please everyone.
You are to serve God in the new way of the Spirit. That new way of the Spirit for divine service doesn’t have specific human rules attached to it. No! The guide is the Holy Spirit and the Word of God.
When David asked God to teach us to number our days, he was referring to God helping us to note how prophetic our daily activities contribute to fulfilling the divine prophecies written in God’s mind concerning our lives. So, there should not be any ordinary day in your life where you cannot trace any good particular thing you did to ensure God’s prophecies are in manifestation.
Keep watch on your divine mandate because you will give an account of your work before the Lord upon His second coming. Rest when you are tired, but don’t convert your rest period into prolonged procrastination.
Unlock your full potential by investing in your education, stepping out in faith, and pressing on in perseverance. Discover the keys to realising your God-given abilities and fulfilling your purpose.
The way to fulfilling your destiny is filled with opportunities for growth, but it also needs perseverance from your end. By keeping a diligent and God-centered mindset, you will see the fruit of your labour, both in your work and in your relationship with God.
As a minister of God, you should not live by the demands of men. Otherwise, you will end up living to fulfil people’s demands rather than living to please God. Sometimes, what people want you to do for them isn’t bad. They could be helpful. However, there are many instances where people’s demands would be contrary to the will of God for your life. So, be careful.
John was offended to see his ministry diminish as Jesus’ own flourishes. Unfortunately, that is how many minister’s lives end up like. They can’t bear the news of seeing someone they started with grow in ministry past theirs. Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on the account of Jesus’ work in other people’s lives.
