Fuel the Vision
One important characteristic of vision is to prepare ahead of time for its step-wise fulfilment. You have to learn how to fuel the vision of God for your life. I share four keys to do this.
The Blessing of Restlessness
Cut back your spending and excessive sleep periods to work and follow God’s vision upon your life. The blessing of restlessness, because of productive work will be released by God upon your life.
Follow God to Deal Wisely with Your Bad Boss
You may be treated harshly at your workplace. But, can I tell you something? Follow God to deal with your bad boss. His ways are higher than yours.
Thrive in a Foreign Land
In Genesis 26:2, God instructed Isaac to stay in Gerar, a Phililstine city, although he wanted to journey to Egypt because of famine. God wanted to show him that He’s the God that can make His people thrive in foreign lands, even under hash conditions. So shall it be for you if you just obey what He tells you.
Lead a Quiet Life
Leading a quiet life as a Christian doesn’t mean you should shut up on everything. It’s all about minding your own business and working with your hands.
Behave Well at the Workplace
It’s nice if someone employed you, but it’s better if you approach work with a godly mentality, just like how serious you take on ministry tasks. Assuming that posture will make you behave well at work.
Backend Structures
Do you want to excel in anything you’re doing? Don’t just execute your ideas. Have backend structures set in place, even before beginning to pursue their fulfilment. Often, it’s the work that gets done behind the scenes that lead to the results everyone sees.
Change of Environment
Don’t be afraid when God sparks a change of environment (from bad to good) in your life to help you mature. It’s for your good.
God-Made Interruptions
Live purposefully, but be open to God-made interruptions because there are things God will definitely use you to do that will never be captured in your plans.
Concentrate on the Mission
Endure hardship as you serve. However, concentrate on the mission of Christ saving and discipling this wicked world by being mission-driven in your actions and decisions.
Put Enduring Factors Aside
Rewrite that bad history by living differently. Change that bad trend by stepping up in God’s work while you intentionally put enduring factors aside.
Lose Your Life
You’re not wasting your life for serving Jesus. Instead, you’re losing to keep it for eternal life. Don’t be afraid to lose your life for Jesus.
