Don’t think what you do in secret isn’t seen by God. No! He has already seen it. If what you are doing is good and gives Him the glory, continue with it. If it is bad, repent and get back on track. Be conscious of your divine mandate because you will ultimately account for it.
Talk is cheap. Because of that, many people don’t even count the cost involved in bringing their ideas to fruition before sharing them with others. You can conceive a beautiful vision in your mind, but that doesn’t negate the labour involved in raising that dream. Be conscious of wielding the power of God in you to do many exploits for His glory.
Don’t look at the beautiful pictures and reviews of people’s organisations, buildings, and activities they showcase on social media and think they didn’t work hard to achieve that level. I tell you, so much occurs behind the scenes to bring you what you see. Before jumping in to pursue any idea in your life, always count the cost before starting to build.
When the devil knows God is up to something great in your life, he works very hard to bombard your life with many bad things just to distract your focus. He knows that if he can get you distracted, he can make you forsake God’s providential way. So, knowing this very well, you have to employ a lot of wisdom and discretion in your walk with God and your relationship with others.
There are too many people depending on you to rise and honour God’s call on your life. Yes, it won’t be easy to do God’s work, especially from the start with unfavourable conditions. But He is with You. Never give up on Him. Press on even if things are not okay. Things will get better with time.
As you grow in what you do, there are times when you need to evaluate what is going on so you can correct your mistakes and make things better. Who knows, your key to enjoying the year would start like this?
What comes to mind when you think about preparing for a new year? To many, it feels like it’s time to reset. But a new year is more than the start of a new calendar and a series of things in your life. It’s about God opening a new chapter in your life, and you must be prepared for it.
When God tells you something, how do you handle it? Do you document it and put it in a place you won’t forget, or do you brush it aside? Many people disobey God because they simply forget what He told them to do. Don’t let that be your case. If you are someone who forgets things fast, write down God’s promise to you at a place you’ll remember.
Do you think it is normal for the arrival of the Messiah to end the lives of many children? No! The death of those children wasn’t God’s will, but it happened because Herod, the king, issued that command in anger. Some children pose a severe threat to families the very day they are born. If that’s your case, then know that God made you different for a purpose.
As the righteousness of God in Christ, once you live fulfilling God’s purpose, it shall not be said of you that you just existed on the face of this Earth. No! If Christ tarries in heaven, your name shall be mentioned for ages, even after your physical death.
Jesus told the men who followed Him that they would no longer catch fish on the sea but would fish people. In other words, their mission as fishermen changed from sea-fishing to men-fishing: the same mission but a different method. Could it be that the area God is calling you into ministry with may not necessarily take you out of your career?
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.
