BE DILIGENT IN THE PURSUIT OF YOUR PURPOSE

He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

Proverbs 10:4

Some people are diligent in the wrong jobs, jobs that they are not really good at or passionate about. Consequently, they are not fulfilled and they never become rich. I’m letting you know that you have to be diligent in the pursuit of your purpose because there is nothing on this earth that you can do better than your purpose.

Discover your unique purpose and be diligent in the pursuit of your purpose. Your purpose is both what you are passionate about and good at, what you love and you do better than anything else. It entails your passion and gifts. When you are diligent in the pursuit of your purpose you will not end up poor but rich.

The hand of the diligent will rule, but the lazy man will be put to forced labor.

Proverbs 12:24

When you are diligent in the pursuit of your purpose you will become a leader. Leadership is not necessarily from position but from influence. When you are diligent in the pursuit of your purpose people will look up to you, you will dominate and you will be a man or woman of influence.

In all labor there is profit, but idle chatter leads only to poverty.

Proverbs 14:23

Do not be idle, the world needs you and your gift, you can make a difference. You can be a man or woman of influence. You can be a leader, be rich and live a life of fulfilment, if you will be diligent in the pursuit of your purpose.

The lazy man does not roast what he took in hunting, but diligence is man’s precious possession.

Proverbs 12:27

Thought of the day: In all labour there is profit.

Confession: I refuse to be lazy; I choose to be diligent.

STRENGTHEN YOURSELF IN THE LORD

Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 1 Samuel 30:6 Things could be going wrong all around you, challenges everywhere, and negative thoughts attacking your mind even to a point of depression. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and wallowing up in depression, stand up and strengthen yourself in the Lord. We live in the world that has challenges, Jesus said that in the world you will have tribulations, but cheer up because Jesus has overcome the world. Strengthen yourself in the Lord and be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10 When you are weak you cannot overcome challenges you face in life. When you are weak you cannot have the victory and take possession your inheritance. You have to be strong. Strong

WAGE WAR WITH PROPHECY

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare. 1 Timothy 1:18 If you have a prophecy spoken over your life it is time for warfare. It is time to wage war with your prophecy. Take the prophecy spoken over you and put it in your mouth. Speak the same prophecy over your life. Agree with God. Can two walk together, unless they are agreed? Amos 3:3 Speak the same things with God. That is faith, faith speaks the same things with God and we overcome by our faith. Faith will put you over and it will make you an overcomer. Use your faith to wage war. And whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world – our faith. 1 John 5:4 Put up a good fight and fight the good fight of faith. You have to fight in order to win. Wage war with prophecy. If there is no prophecy spoken over you, there is nothing to it. Use the Word and speak the Word over

GOD REWARDS RIGHTEOUS LIVING

The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. 2 Samuel 22:21 Righteousness according to the Old Testament is righteous living. However, in the New Testament we have received the righteousness which is by faith in Jesus Christ. When David in the Old Testament said that the LORD rewarded him according to his righteousness, he is essentially saying that the LORD rewarded him for his righteous living. Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 The above Scripture would then mean: “Say to those who live righteously that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.” God rewards righteous living. It doesn’t matter where you find yourself right now, if you would continue living righteously, living according to God’s Word sooner than later your life would begin to change. You can turn things around as you live righteously.
