Shine Before Men
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” – Matthew 5:16 NKJV
Do What You Know
God is after people practising His Word instead of merely listening to it because He wants our lives to be built in the foundation of Christ’s teaching. Be empowered to do what you know from the Word.
Be Strategic
There are numerous tasks to accomplish for a divine vision to be fulfilled. Be strategic and don’t handle tasks haphazardly.
Count the Cost
When you count the cost involved in anything you are about to build, your preparation for it becomes better and more explicit.
Work While It Is Day
Friend, you’re the sent of the Lord. Don’t stop witnessing Christ to the lost in the power of the Spirit. Be strengthened to work while it is God’s Day.
Missional Response to Work Demands
Not all demands require your immediate attention and response. Analyse them and respond to the important ones and those that’ll fulfil your calling in Christ.
Rest and Continue Later
If you’re employed, work as unto the Lord. After resting, get up and continue your duties. Don’t turn your rest period into a season of perpetual procrastination.
Persist to Get It
When you ask God repeatedly about something, it doesn’t mean He hasn’t heard it. Ask what you want from God, but not with selfish intentions behind it.
Doing Good Works to Others as Christians
Good works are the hallmark of selfless Christians. Don’t be selfish with what God blesses you with. You’re blessed to be a blessing unto people.
Different Levels of Fruition
There is variation in how much people take God’s Word seriously. Due to this, there’ll always be different levels of fruition amongst Christians. Aim to understand God’s Word you receive well, so that you’ll work with it to bear more fruit.
