If God has called you, don’t think or say people will accept your ministry right on the go. No! It doesn’t work like that. You must labour to please the Lord by faithfully doing what He has called you to do, and then you’ll see progress in your calling.
God is not a respecter of persons. He has children and loves each one of us uniquely. So, even though some believers are more spiritually mature than others, it doesn’t mean He allows certain people to go scot-free if such people breach His principles.
Keep watch on your divine mandate because you will give an account of your work before the Lord upon His second coming. Rest when you are tired, but don’t convert your rest period into prolonged procrastination.
Samuel didn’t have a problem hearing God. If he hadn’t heard what God said about Eliab, he would have anointed the wrong king for Israel, and that would have cost the kingdom so much. So, as a leader, especially as an employer, don’t rely solely on the curriculum vitae of prospective employees to choose a person for work, particularly for ministerial work. Let God guide you, and don’t be in a rush.
Unlock your full potential by investing in your education, stepping out in faith, and pressing on in perseverance. Discover the keys to realising your God-given abilities and fulfilling your purpose.
Let me tell you something, dear leader. Each individual in your team is valuable. Once you don’t treat each person well and offence grows without punishment, the team members won’t feel okay, and some will leave. Many people hate their jobs today, not because of the job but because genuine love is missing in various workplaces.
The way to fulfilling your destiny is filled with opportunities for growth, but it also needs perseverance from your end. By keeping a diligent and God-centered mindset, you will see the fruit of your labour, both in your work and in your relationship with God.
John was offended to see his ministry diminish as Jesus’ own flourishes. Unfortunately, that is how many minister’s lives end up like. They can’t bear the news of seeing someone they started with grow in ministry past theirs. Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on the account of Jesus’ work in other people’s lives.
Dear businessman, building your business is costly. It’ll demand so much of your time and brainwork to develop structures and systems. So it’s not just about money. Dear minister, reaching the world doesn’t only depend on how powerful God’s message given to you is. You need the finance, human resources and equipment to make it presentable across diverse platforms.
Jesus described the kingdom of God like a mustard seed that a man took and put in his garden. Then what? It grew to become a large tree and the birds of the air nested in its branches. That description of God’s kingdom is about you, dear one.
Make sure your ministry doesn’t get discredited based on what you do in secret and public. Don’t practice evil things secretly, and think God isn’t watching you. Again, keep labouring effectively to ensure that God’s work prospers in your hands. Serving the Lord is not always easy, but it is worth it.
Are you a minister of God? Sometimes, reminisce about the number of people who have heard the gospel through you and be joyful about it in the Lord. That can be an antidote to overthinking about the next project for which you may not have the funds to do. Stop thinking so much about your future that you forget to celebrate what the Lord has been doing daily in your life.
