Don’t Have a Wrong View of God’s Character
It is good to understand God’s way of doing things. But the moment you let fear cloud your mind on what you are supposed to do with your gift, it’ll affect your diligence at work.
Woe to You Who Are at Ease in Zion
The Bible says woe to you who are at ease in Zion (see Amos 6:1). “Zion” in the scripture refers to the spiritual abode of the now-believer in Christ. God is saying it is erroneous to be in His kingdom as a believer and be at ease in your comfort zone.
A Word of Advice to the Lazy Person
Life is in seasons. There are seasons of plenty and that of drought. What if you get laid off tomorrow? Do you have any plan in place to sustain you financially until you get a new job? You see, don’t live as if there is no tomorrow. Work diligently, child of God, always having it at the back of your mind that time changes.
Building Consistency in Giving in God’s House
Be encouraged to embrace giving as a lifestyle and a spiritual duty. The consistency of your giving reflects your trust in God’s provision and your commitment to supporting His work. As you apply the principles mentioned in this article, you will experience the joy of generosity and the fulfilment that comes with honouring God through your finances.
Be Conscious of Your Divine Mandate
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.
A Kingdom Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand
If ministries collaborate with other ministries to do God’s work, the impact of all the ministries that came together for this work will be more potent than what only one can do. In homes, a couple with a strong marriage will have a more blessed home than the one that is divided. Yes, it is a law.
The Kingdom of God Is Not a Matter of Talk
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.
Count the Cost Before Starting to Build
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.
Keep Watch Over God’s Assignment on Your Life
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.
Accelerate After Building the Foundation
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?
Don’t Dilute God’s Vision for Your Life Because of Laziness
Dear one, don’t dilute God’s vision for your life because of laziness. Don’t keep listing many excuses in your mind to explain why you cannot do this or that. No! It’ll just make you abandon that work, and you will say that things don’t work. God doesn’t want you to be a failure, so don’t make yourself one.
You Shall Live to Declare the Works of the Lord
You may have seen other people die prematurely, and that made you sad, but it doesn’t have to happen to you. When you feel fragile about living, don’t give up. Instead, go to the Lord in prayer to recharge yourself in the Spirit and come back to face life with renewed strength.
