Take Your Work Seriously
Reading Proverbs 18:9, Solomon says that the one who’s slack in his work is a brother to one who destroys. In other words, the lazy person has a similar lifestyle to that of a destroyer of an entire company.

Do your work heartily unto the Lord. Take that business you’re employed in as yours and work with all your heart as if you’re the boss. And as you serve, God will recognise your labour and reward you bountifully.
Sometimes, when God is building you up, He’ll put you in hiding season. He will intentionally make some people leave your life in order to reduce monitoring eyes upon you while He builds you up in secrecy.
You cannot fulfil your divine mandate with your human strength. That’s why Christ lives in you. Commune with Him consistently, and that divine enablement to excel in what God has called you to do will begin manifesting in multiplication.
Dear leader, the people you work with must understand what you’re building upon as God shows you. You must expose the vision to your team consistently, not to the general public. That will make your team believe in God and in you too.
Daniel, amongst all the 123 officials King Darius chose, distinguished himself among the satraps by his exceptional qualities. He was so pure that they found nothing against him. Can that be said of you, especially at your workplace or home, dear believer?
You cannot fulfil your divine mandate without your body being in good health. Take care of yourself as an honour to the Lord of it.
If the Word says woe to a believer complacent in God’s kingdom (Amos 6:1), then it means there’s no space for laziness in Christ.
Spiritual leadership is very impactful. If you don’t do what you want others to do, they’ll listen to what you say when they hear you teach but will never follow what you told them privately in their lives.
If God has charged us to be fruitful, then He has already placed seeds of eternity in us.
Maintain the working systems in what you’re doing with diligence and wisdom. But press on for higher progression. That is how you desire and work on rising in your calling.
Make God the primary inspiration of your work, not your salary, wage or compensation.
