MAXIMISE YOUR GOD-GIVEN RESOURCES WITH A RESOLVE 

By Leave a Comment

MAXIMISE YOUR GOD-GIVEN RESOURCES WITH A RESOLVE: TIME, EFFORTS [MENTAL/PHYSICAL EXERTION], FINANCE, MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] AND PEOPLE! 

Are you keen to live in the realm of a More Than CONQUERORS? Also keen To SUCCEED? Keen To EXCEL and Be ABOVE ONLY? Keen To THRIVE Instead of SURVIVE? Here is the WISDOM NUGGET guide for your today and tomorrow. 

“Nay, in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that loved us” Romans 8:37. 

I want you to know that a colourful and thriving life is a place of graciousness, gracefulness and loveliness; however, it’s not a giveaway otherwise the beggar [slothful and sluggard] will ride with ease, hence it’s not cheap and not for the lazy, sluggard [slothful] and idlers. It is for the RESOLVE to succeed, excel and to be above only, with a PRAGMATIC and INTENTIONAL plan, purpose and pursuit, and to BECOME in the grace, in order to attain to the fulness of God’s testament for them; for whatever had no process is an act of fraud, hence there’s the need to MAXIMISE your God-given basic RESOURCES to do life and live godly in the grace, and these are – TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] and PEOPLE; and experiencing the colourful and thriving life in the grace is possible as you earnestly and meaningfully endeavour to endorse, ensure and be assured of your set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in the grace – for that’s to enable you to create, innovate, initiate and explore the resource of grace within you effortlessly and unhindered; also, with the enabling leverage toward an onward, upward trajectory in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Romans 8:28-30]. 

The knowing that ‘YOU ARE OF GOD’, “BELOVED OF GOD” and “BELOVED BY GOD” makes you readily and steadily able to succeed, triumph, win and overcome and be a more than conquerors that’s living victoriously, in life and godliness. And that makes colourful and thriving life accessible, and more so, the knowing that the GREATER ONE lives within you. [1 John 4:4-16]. 

Therefore, it’s imperative to let your TIME, EFFORT, FINANCIAL, MATERIAL, and PEOPLE resources count and account for your good. For “SUCCESS IS FAILURE TURN INSIDE OUT”, which is a result of one respecting the opportunity to diligently and prudently utilise one’s given resources: TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL and PEOPLE. This also means you can become what you want to be if you walk/work in wisdom with your God-given resource in your day-to-day PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT. 

It is on this platform that one can also become A MORE THAN CONQUEROR, live a COLOURFUL and THRIVING life instead of being a SURVIVAL which some like to ascertain for self-pity, I guess. 

I pray you abound BLESSED. Be EMPOWERED to SUCCEED as a MORE THAN CONQUEROR in Christ Jesus stead. Amen! You ARE BELOVED and MORE THAN – Don’t Live For Less In REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven . . .11 He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11/Amplified. 

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED”. Romans 8:28-30. 

“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is he that is in you, THAN he that is in the world. 5. They ARE of the world: therefore, speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6. 

“Whoso KEEPETH the COMMANDMENT shall FEEL NO EVIL THING: and a WISE man’s heart DISCERNETH both TIME and JUDGMENT” Ecclesiastes 8:5. 

“The PREPARATIONS of the heart in man, and the ANSWER of the tongue, is from the Lord. 2 All the WAYS of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord WEIGHETH the spirits. 3 Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established . . . 7 When a man’s WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him. 9. A man’s heart DEVISETH his way: but the Lord DIRECTETH his STEPS” Proverbs 16:1-3, 7, 9. 

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before kings (Honour, Dignity, Noble); he shall not STAND before mean (Obscure, Unproductive) men” Proverbs 22:29.

“He who TILLS (CULTIVATES) his land will have PLENTY of bread, But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough! 20 A FAITHFUL man will ABOUND with BLESSINGS, But he who HASTENS to be rich will not go unpunished. 21 To show partiality is not good, Because for a piece of bread a man will transgress. 22 A man with an EVIL eye HASTENS after RICHES And does not consider that poverty will come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22/NKJV. 

“The horse is PREPARED against the DAY OF BATTLE: but SAFETY is of the Lord” Proverbs 21:31. 

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy MOUTH; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest OBSERVE to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

LIVING FOR A PURPOSE 

By Leave a Comment

LIVING FOR A PURPOSE: THAT’S WHAT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE WITH GOD IN US IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD! 

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE” Romans 8:28. 

You can only live a fulfilling life for a purpose, when you know and understand what your worth is, by God in Christ Jesus. [Romans 8:28; Ephesians 1:11; Ecclesiastes 3:1 (1-11)]; and for what you are created and made to be of God in Christ Jesus. 

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for THY PLEASURE they are and were created” Revelations 4:12. 

“For BY HIM were all things CREATED, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM, AND FOR HIM” Colossians 1:16. 

Some live in a small-minded world that’s full of self; and all they do is talking, oppressing, controlling, dehumanising, and analysing people, hence these groups are small-minded people in worth. While there are some who live with a larger- at -heart mindset – and for them, rather than wasting time on irrelevant matters like the small-minded people, they live beyond walls of difference in SELFLESS LOVE, SELFLESS HOPE and SELFLESS FAITH – reaching out and touching lives for their good and goodness – and are often burning with flames in them for the good CAUSES of God for others with their God-given resources of – TIME, FINANCE, MATERIAL [DEVICE], PEOPLE, EFFORT [SKILLS/TALENTS]. 

And until you come to know, understand and realise that you are created and made purely for the good of God’s PURPOSE and everything about you is of and for God CAUSES, you will be living for self and sentiments in small minds and small worlds. 

“There is a SEASON (A TIME APPOINTED) for everything and a time for every delight and event or PURPOSE under heaven . . . 11 He has MADE everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11 (1-11). 

Therefore, think and change for a good cause and become an agent of greater change, making a difference for the good of others beyond borders; and irrespective of class, gender, colour, culture and tongue. 

Life WORTH is about living – firstly, with a selfless FAITH, HOPE And LOVE – and secondly, toward advancing the Kingdom causes of God – and thirdly, in keeping the Enemy and Cohorts at bay, for the good of others. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a PLAN] for good for those who love God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/AMP. 

“In Him also we have received an inheritance [a destiny—we were claimed by God as His own], having been PREDESTINED (chosen, appointed beforehand) according to the PURPOSE of Him who works everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Savior] would exist to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:11-12/AMP. 

“There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or PURPOSE under heaven . . . 11 He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11 (1-11). 

“Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this CAUSE came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice” John 18:37. 

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this PURPOSE the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil” 1 John 3:8. 

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast CREATED all things, and for THY PLEASURE they are and were created” Revelations 4:12. 

“For BY HIM were all things CREATED, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dom inions, or principalities, or powers: ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM, AND FOR HIM” Colossians 1:16. 

SUMMARY: 

The message emphasises the importance of living for a purpose, as stated in Romans 8:28, “all things work together for good to them that love God, to those who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE”. It highlights that knowing one’s worth and purpose in Christ Jesus is crucial to living a fulfilling life. 

Key points: 

  • Believers are created and made for God’s purpose and pleasure (Revelations 4:12, Colossians 1:16). 
  • Some people live in a small-minded world focused on self, while others live with a larger-at-heart mindset, demonstrating selfless love, hope, and faith (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11). 
  • To live a purposeful life, one must recognise their creation and destiny in Christ Jesus and align themselves with God’s causes.  
  • Living for a purpose involves having selfless faith, hope, and love, advancing God’s kingdom, and keeping the enemy at bay. 
  • The message encourages believers to think and change, becoming agents of greater change, making a difference for others beyond borders and differences. 

The message cites scriptures to emphasise God’s purpose and plan for believers, urging them to live a life that reflects their worth and purpose in Christ Jesus.

THE GOOD, BETTER, AND BEST DAYS IS NOW AND AHEAD

By Leave a Comment

THE GOOD, BETTER, AND BEST DAYS IS NOW AND AHEAD: BE CREATIVE, INNOVATIVE AND READILY READY FOR THE NEW DAWN OF DOING LIFE DURING AND AFTER WHATEVER! 

“For SURELY THERE IS AN END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:18 

Surely there’s an end to everything under the sun – [whether it’s the loss of job, marital breakdown, relationship disruption, bereavement of loved one, infectious pandemic diseases and sicknesses, fatal accident, war, economic meltdown and such like] – for there is no different with God in WHATEVER. It thus means every challenge and difficult circumstance are certainly and surely TIMED to stop or come to an END point one day, irrespective of the days, weeks, months, and years of that WHATEVER – Proverbs 23:18.  

And life will always roll into a NEW action and motion again when an end has come for WHATEVER betides one. It’s how much READINESS and PREPAREDNESS you are making to forge ahead for yourself and all about you at the dawn day and dawn time when it comes – for therein is the very important thing to think and ponder through in the act of doing life and living godly by the grace in Christ Jesus’ stead. To have a pragmatic and an intentional mindset setting for an onward and upward trajectory, it’s so important if you intend to be the one in charge, control and in DOMINON to reign and rule in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead – [Proverbs 21:31; Proverbs 16:1, 3, 7, 9]. 

There’s one scripture that I have known, that have kept me going, almost in every passing phase of challenging times in my life, in dealing with matters during and after WHATEVER in the path of the working of FAITH, the labour of love, and the patience of hope in Christ Jesus stead. The scripture is this: 

“. . . 8 BETTER IS THE END OF A THING THAN THE BEGINNING THEREOF: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. 10 SAY NOT THOU, WHAT IS THE CAUSE THAT THE FORMER DAYS WERE BETTER THAN THESE? FOR THOU DOST NOT ENQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS . . .” Ecclesiastes 7:7-12. 

“We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; [3] remembering without ceasing your WORK OF FAITH, and LABOUR OF LOVE, and PATIENCE OF HOPE in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4 knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-4. 

More so, I know that having a SCRIPTURAL perception of life, is an attitude that makes one to perceive that their today is far better than yesterday, and that has helped and kept me going; and scriptural context in perception still helps me to stay strong and courageous, knowing that the best of anything is in the new start up and not in the old. 

And the knowing that God’s act of faithfulness and steadfastness are NEW every morning – is an awesome plus on each passing day (Lamentations 3:23); and by this confidence and assurance in SCRIPTURAL context in perception, there’s no reason why one should not live in the present tense of God to define one’s life for today and tomorrow. Hence, I can say that your GOOD, BETTER and BEST DAYS have come and are coming out of the WHATEVER you are dealing with at the moment to advance in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. 

Just as I will always say that the New Testament, the New Creation which is of the New Covenant and such like, is far more superior testimony as in the fulfilment to the Old Testament of the Old Covenant and such like injunctions of the old – it beholds me as it becomes imperative, that one keep away and withdraws from the concept of always looking back and thinking of the good old days instead of dealing with the present. 

Regrets and living in the past will not elevate anyone, no matter the devotion to mourning, murmuring, and complaining about the past and its history – both in the bad or good terms. And dwelling in the past doesn’t indicate a good sign of being innovative, creative and wise up to make good of the present in order to ensure and endorse the beauty and glory so much desired of you – especially for your today and your tomorrow. It’s time for a NEW you to SPRING up for the NEW dawn day that’s about to come forth from you after the WHATEVER; because your world should not be the same again and you need not be – A LEFT BEHIND CHRISTIAN. 

I’m emboldened to inform you that the way you live and do life OUGHT to change whenever the WHATEVER is done away with in one’s life. And if you do not PREPARE and TRAIN yourself for the NEW you to emerge in order to EFFECTIVELY deal with the changes that will come up after your WHATEVER – you may live to regret learning nothing whenever the WHATEVER shutdown or locked down or standstill moment is done and dusted. It’s a wise decision for you to do life meaningfully and purposefully as a consequence of the preparation you’ve made for your emergence from the known and unknown WHATEVER you’ve been through. 

Just know that our ways of PRUDENCE – the utilising and managing of the resources – of TIME, FINANCE, EFFORT (Physical/Mental Exertion), MATERIAL and PEOPLE, in order to earn a living may likely change in many ways after WHATEVER; and if you’ve not made yourself readily ready to adapt with the changes, there will be a left behind to catch up with, in the reality of change that may evolve. 

And I don’t want you whining, crying out loud – saying things like – THE FORMER DAYS ARE BETTER THAN THE PRESENT. This simply means you are not living in the NOW because the FORMER days have a grip on you, and you’ve forgotten that those days can’t define your current and present day.  

It’s time to look inward for your onward and upward trajectory match to the better and best of you in life and grace. Our God is the God of the now and tomorrow as He’s of yesterday; and He’s good and faithful to see us through life phase – making the good and the bad to work together for our good Romans 8:28. But you must give God something to work with, to ensure you are  through with your inward (insight) and outward (foresight) plan, purpose and pursuit. 

I PRAY YOU KNOW WELL TODAY AND ALWAYS THAT – THE GOOD, BETTER AND BEST DAYS IS NOW AND AHEAD – THEREFORE, BE CREATIVE, INNOVATIVE AND READILY READY FOR THE NEW DAWN OF DOING LIFE DURING AND AFTER THE WHATEVER. 

I pray you have a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL days in the PRESENT TIME and in the TIME AHEAD that might evolve in every way in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK. 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart. 8. BETTER IS THE END OF A THING THAN THE BEGINNING THEREOF: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 9. Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. 10 SAY NOT THOU, WHAT IS THE CAUSE THAT THE FORMER DAYS WERE BETTER THAN THESE? FOR THOU DOST NOT ENQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS. 11. Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY OF KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM GIVETH LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:7-12. 

“FOR SURELY THERE IS AN END; and thine expectation shall not be cut off” Proverbs 23:18. 

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD, to them who are the called according to his purpose” Romans 8:28. 

“Being CONFIDENT of this very thing, that he which hath BEGUN A GOOD WORK in you will PERFORM it until the day of Jesus Christ” Philippians 1:6. 

“CAST NOT AWAY therefore your CONFIDENCE, which hath great RECOMPENCE OF REWARD. 36 For ye have need of PATIENCE, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might RECEIVE the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who DRAW BACK UNTO PERDITION; but of them that BELIEVE TO THE SAVING OF THE SOUL” Hebrews 10:35-39.  

SUMMARY: 

The message is an inspirational and motivational piece that encourages readers to look forward to a brighter future, despite current challenges. The main theme is that “THE GOOD, BETTER, AND BEST DAYS” are now and ahead, and one should be prepared to move forward, leaving past regrets and difficulties behind.

  • Regrets, mourning, and complaining about the past won’t elevate anyone; instead, focus on being innovative, creative, and wise to make the most of the present. (Ecclesiastes 7:10, Romans 8:28) 
  • One’s ways of managing resources (time, finance, effort, material, and people) may change after WHATEVER, so be prepared to adapt. (Proverbs 21:31, Proverbs 16:1, 3, 7, 9)

  • God is faithful and will see you through life’s phases, making good and bad work together for your good (Romans 8:28, Lamentations 3:23).

READ BEFORE YOU RUN

READ BEFORE YOU RUN: WISDOM IS THE APPLICATION OF KNOWLEDGE! 

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4. 

Don’t be fooled. Ignorance is destructive, cancerous and killing. Knowledge delivers and emancipates. Understanding gives direction and drive. Wisdom is the application of knowledge. 

” Jesus answered and said to them, “YOU ARE MISTAKEN, NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/NKJV. 

“For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY of KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM giveth LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:12. 

A person of wisdom is given to life and strength; given to time, opportunity and right judgement. Wisdom is the principal thing. Ensure you get understanding while in all your search for knowledge. 

“Wisdom is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore, get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7. 

As wisdom is the application of knowledge, so a man’s wisdom makes him to shine, radiates in glory and boldness without fear; much more, there is no room to feel evil when you know you are wisely living by the commandment of our God in Christ Jesus stead. And you can discern by such knowledge wisely, then utilises the informed acquisition to redeem the time and make judgement of a context irrespective, and without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. Wisdom to direct is a consequence of knowledge and understanding, and it makes one work smartly, networks gracefully and do life effortlessly, and achieve in quality and quantity with speed and accuracy. 

“Who is as the WISE man? and who knoweth the INTERPRETATION of a thing? a man’s WISDOM maketh his FACE to SHINE, and the BOLDNESS of his face shall be changed . . . 5 Whoso KEEPETH THE COMMANDMENT shall FEEL no EVIL thing: and a WISE man’s heart discerneth both TIME and JUDGMENT” Ecclesiastes 8:1, 5. 

“If the axe is dull and he does not sharpen its edge, then he must exert more strength; but WISDOM [to sharpen the axe] helps him succeed [with less effort]” Ecclesiastes 10:10/Amplified 

Therefore, READ BEFORE YOU RUN, so that you can make the right decision and maximise your given potential to fulfil purpose meaningfully with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK! 

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT: 

“And now, brethren, I COMMEND you to God, and to THE WORD of his grace, which is able to BUILD you up, and to GIVE you an INHERITANCE among all them which are SANCTIFIED” Acts 20:32. 

“The Lord GAVE the word: great was the company of those that PUBLISHED it” Psalms 68:11. 

“Oh, that my WORDS were now WRITTEN! oh that they were PRINTED in a BOOK! 24 That they were GRAVEN with an IRON PEN and LEAD in the ROCK for ever!” Job 19:23-24. 

“And there are also MANY other things which Jesus DID, the which, if they should be WRITTEN every one, I suppose that even the WORLD itself could not contain the BOOKS that should be WRITTEN. Amen” John 21:25.

MAKE A NEW START BY DILIGENCE – SMART WORK THAN HARD WORK

By Leave a Comment

MAKE A NEW START BY DILIGENCE – SMART WORK THAN HARD WORK: IT WILL ALWAYS PAY GOOD DIVIDEND! 

“He who has a SLACK HAND becomes POOR, But the HAND of the DILIGENT makes RICH [PROSPERS]” Proverbs 10:4/Emphasis Mine. 

“The HAND of the DILIGENT will RULE [EMPOWER], But the LAZY [SLUGGARD, SLOTHFUL, PROCRASTINATOR] man will be put to FORCED [SLAVE] LABOR” Proverbs 12:24/Emphasis Mine. 

Diligence is about being consistently consistent, achieving productive results within time and budget. It’s also about unwavering commitment and dedication to a task, through planning for effectiveness and efficiency. And God by the scripture’s honours DILIGENCE and DILIGENT WORK; and a DILIGENT PERSON PROSPERS in every RESPECT. A DILIGENT hand enriches, empowers, rules, and takes charge, unlike a lazy, sluggard, slothful, procrastinator who falls behind. For God rewards DILIGENCE as it’s written: 

“But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE Him: for he that COMETH to God MUST BELIEVE that He is, and that He is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6. 

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, DIGNITY NOBLE); he shall not STAND before MEAN [SLUGGARD, SLOTHFUL, LAZY, PROCRASTINATOR, UNPRODUCTIVE, OBSCURED] men” Proverbs 22:29/Emphasis Mine. 

Diligence is about WORKING SMART in FAITH, not WORKING HARD in FATE. Effectual dividend comes through the FAITH Communication in the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of the glorious, goodness and gracious greatness that’s done in you, in Christ Jesus stead. The PLANS of the DILIGENT lead surely to PLENTY [ABUNDANCE] and it ENRICHES [PROSPERS] without daydreaming as in the Holy Writs context: 

“That the COMMUNICATION of thy FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of EVERY GOOD THING which is IN YOU IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6. 

“The soul of a LAZY man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the DILIGENT shall be made RICH” Proverbs 13:4. 

“The PLANS of the DILIGENT lead surely to PLENTY, but those of everyone who is HASTY, surely to POVERTY” Proverbs 21:5. 

Being diligently smart or saying working smart or SMARTWORKING is far better than working hard or HARDWORKING – which either way you intend to phrase it. It’s simply for these few reasons though not limited, that I earnestly recommend you work smart – SMARTWORKING instead of hard work – HARDWORKING: 

  • TIME LAPSE: The difference between HARD WORK and SMART WORK is how MUCH TIME you spend completing tasks. HARD WORK tends to be when someone spends a GREAT AMOUNT of time completing many things or given tasks. While SMART WORK is when someone spends LESS time focusing on completing the right thing or given task. That’s what productivity is all about. How much time did you spend on the given task producing an efficient and effective result.  
  • QUALITY VS. QUANTITY: Hard work often focuses on quantity rather than quality. HARD WORK means spending long hours on a task or series of tasks. SMART WORK involves completing the same amount of work (with the same quality) in less time. 
  • EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT: SMART WORK is about finding effective and efficient ways to complete one or multiple tasks while also managing time and quality on both. HARD WORK can be simply defined as putting in strenuous hours for doing a certain task or set task. 
  • COST ESSENCE: HARD WORK may generate a high cost, whereas SMART WORK leads to work done at a minimum cost. HARD WORK is when one does certain things without effective planning, whereas SMART WORK is when we get the work done through planning and with people without any physical stress. 

Every DILIGENT beginning will surely increase GRACIOUSLY and GLORIOUSLY. That’s, God’s SET position for you in His SANCTUARY from the beginning [Jeremiah 17:12]. So, get set for the dawn of a New you for your new day in the course of time. NO ROOM FOR THE SLUGGARD AND SLOTHFUL, because your present and future greatness is undeniable except you let it slip off you through being lazy and mean to yourself instead of being diligent all the way.  

Blessed regards as you get your life set to work through DILIGENCE – being SMARTWORKING rather than HARDWORKING, in all you do for your onward and upward trajectory, in life and in grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“But without FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that COMETH to God must BELIEVE that he is, and that he is a REWARDER of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS (UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL) to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT the PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12 Emphasis Mine.

WISDOM NUGGETS AT FAMILY HOME CHURCH

WISDOM NUGGETS AT FAMILY HOME CHURCH: INVEST WISELY YOUR GOD’S GIVEN RESOURCES – TIME, EFFORT, MATERIAL AND FINANCE BEFORE EXPENDING! 

“There is PRECIOUS TREASURE and OIL in the HOUSE of the WISE [who PREPARE for the future], But a SHORT-SIGHTED and FOOLISH man SWALLOWS it up and WASTES it” Proverbs 21:20 Amplified. 

When you EXPEND your OPPORTUNITIES in CONTRARIWISE instead of you to INVEST such in your God given resources of TIME, EFFORT (skill/talent), MATERIAL (Tools/Equipment) and FINANCE in order to CREATE the DESIRED enjoyable life treasure, pleasure and grace, you then KNOW that FOOLISHNESS and STUPIDITY has been set in motion for POVERTY and it’s side effects. And when foolishness sets in, you know the end results (you can name it or name them . . .). 

“He who TILLS his land will have PLENTY of bread, But he who FOLLOWS worthless things LACKS common sense and good judgment” Proverbs 12:11/Amplified. 

An example of ignorance, foolishness and stupidity, is when you EXPEND your years energy of TIME, EFFORT, MATERIAL and FINANCE in PREPARING for just A DAY WEDDING, and with little or no INVESTMENT of TIME, EFFORT, MATERIAL and FINANCE in PREPARING for the DESIRED MARRIAGE that’s the WORTH of a LIFETIME; definitely and surely, you need NO special prophecy to determine what the final outcome of such UNPREPAREDNESS will be – if it will be pleasurable or regrettable – all day long. 

Hence be WISE in INVESTING your God given resources of – TIME, EFFORT, MATERIAL AND FINANCE – by wisdom before EXPENDING it at all for whatever contrarily.

“He who CULTIVATES HIS LAND will have PLENTY OF BREAD, But he who FOLLOWS WORTHLESS people and FRIVOLOUS PURSUITS will have PLENTY of POVERTY. 20 A FAITHFUL (RIGHT-MINDED) MAN will ABOUND with BLESSINGS, But he who HURRIES TO BE RICH will not go unpunished. 21 To have regard for one person over another and to show FAVORITISM is not good, Because for a PIECE of bread a man will TRANSGRESS. 22 He who has an EVIL and ENVIOUS eye hurries to be rich.

INVEST-IN-KNOWLEDGE: LIVE FOR A PURPOSE

By Leave a Comment

INVEST-IN-KNOWLEDGE: LIVE FOR A PURPOSE – YOU WORTH MORE!

“Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken (ERRING), not KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29 NKJV (Emphasis Mine).

A friend of mine just wrote a book that’s worth exploring, I didn’t wait to order myself a copy and as soon as the book reached my door step, I wasted no time to unpack and got into reading on my staircase in order to devour the writ because I know it’s a spiritual meal worth getting, knowing from whom it’s written. [Matthew 13:44-46]. For wisdom, the application of knowledge is at cost and worth it when you know the value of what you’re worth and the need and essence to keep the informed worth continuously refreshed, rekindled, rejuvenated and blossoming in life and grace.

How much do you think you’re WORTH? How much are you INVESTING on your WORTH to make it appreciate in value the MORE? What’s your current lifestyle price tag? Don’t you intend spicing up your current stage and phase in life for a more healthier place? Are you still fresh or refreshing and rejuvenating in mind and thoughts? Are you still set in your old set mind setbacks ways? Are you living purposefully and meaningfully for a cause? Are you truly LIVING or you are just managing to EXIST? I just want you to know that YOU ARE WORTH A LIFE and need to LIVE THE WORTH. It’s time to take a PAUSE and THINK about it for a moment before you take the next step of action.

“Through WISDOM is an house builded; and by UNDERSTANDING it is established: 4 and by KNOWLEDGE shall the chambers be FILLED with all precious and pleasant riches. 5 A WISE man is strong; yea, a man of KNOWLEDGE increaseth strength” Proverbs 24:3-5.

Today, I just discovered that my wife Faith is investing time, money and effort with a friend to learn and improve other, and better ways of cooking delicious meals from the norm or usual to add to the family menu. I’ve chosen to delay eating time so that I can be the taster. She doesn’t know it yet, except you inform her. Yes, I really do. And not quite long ago, she was investing on books to expand her horizons of knowledge on subjects that’s worth exploring explicitly and that matters to her dearly, instead of waiting  for a second or third hands information that may have been distorted and adulterated from the original information – especially now in our world of social experiment that’s polluted with misinformation and disinformation across the boards.

However, living a Micro-wave, Quick-fix life and fast-readily meal only will not do you any good in the long run to deal with the world. And with the dynamics of the changes and challenges in the world, you can’t afford to remain static or to put a new wine in an old wineskin. There has to be a new you for your new day. From one glory to another glory, glowing in the Lord Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

When last did you really INVEST – TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT to acquire the required and needed KNOWLEDGE to spice up, improve, promote, rekindle and synergise your current life status or the dysfunctional limitations and skill in terms of – CAREER OR TRADE, TRADEMARKS, MARRIAGE or MARITAL & SOCIAL RELATIONSHIP, FRIENDSHIP, BUSINESS ENTERPRISE, FRIENDSHIP OUTLOOK, LEADERSHIP SKILS, MINISTERIAL POTENTIAL, COOKING/COOKERY, COMMUNICATION IMPROVEMENT and more of such like?

Don’t you know it’s  high time you READ to ACQUIRE skill or knowledge, or LEARN to EARN more again or the more in order to improve the quality of your life in grace – which could be by attending a training course, go for a refreshing seminar or conference, take a different turn from the usual to make you innovate, create, initiate and explore – in order to be built up – at a cost of TIME, FINANCE, MATERIAL and EFFORT. Look within and you will see that there are too much within you yet to be EXPLORED in order to CREATE, INITIATE, INNOVATE and bring about your best and ultimate well-being, in LIFE and GODLY LIVING.

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like TREASURE HIDDEN IN A FIELD, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it HE GOES AND SELLS ALL THAT HE HAS AND BUYS THAT FIELD. 45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking BEAUTIFUL PEARLS, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and SOLD ALL THAT HE HAD AND BOUGHT IT” Matthew 13:44-46 NKJV.

Now, I know why most times people are still set in their old ways that have captivated them and nothing adventurous is there driving them to attain higher heights; and they see nothing worth pursuing to keep them fresh or refreshing in order to blossom, thrive, innovate and create; and they see nothing motivating, inspiring, revealing and empowering about them to enable them ensure they obtain the life that’s WORTH embracing, to compete or overcome the deteriorating worlds about you. My dearly beloved of God in Christ Jesus stead, know of a truth that the above mentioned norm found in some ought not to be so and not for you too, especially in God’s enabling GRACE and BLESSEDNESS that’s abundantly available to us all irrespective, in Christ Jesus stead.

It’s time to say – oh God, RENEW, REFRESH , REJUVENATE, REKINDLE AND BLOSSOM my days and REVITALISE my life with the needed investment on KNOWLEDGE and EXPOSURE to keep me updated in order to be effectual and efficient, and to navigate in the changing WORLD SYSTEM with the gracious ATTITUDE that will bring about the desired onward and upward trajectory toward an ALTITUDE of graciousness and gracefulness for me, in your BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The man that WANDERETH out of the way of UNDERSTANDING shall remain in the CONGREGATION of the DEAD (UNPRODUCTIVE)” Proverbs 21:16 Emphasis Mine.

“Good UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the WAY of TRANSGRESSORS is hard (DIFFICULT)” Proverbs 13:15 Emphasis Mine.

Know for sure, that, living and sustaining a colourful life that’s genuine and to be in GRACIOUSNESS and GRACEFULNESS without stress, sweat and depression is not cheap and out there by MERE wishes; hence the need to INVEST in the needed KNOWLEDGE to CHANGE your worlds for good and to CREATE the needed atmosphere you want to see, enjoy and live within. For you are the custodian of your own happiness and joy and not another that you want to blame as many have done in ignorance, stupidity and foolishness.

“Wisdom is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get WISDOM: and with all thy GETTING get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

You are the architect of your world – whether it’s good or hurting at the moment. It’s your time to ARISE and GLOW through NEEDED knowledge. Don’t let ignorance, foolishness and stupidity, presumption, illusions and procrastination keep you static, burnt out and worn out – especially in your marital relationship, business enterprise, career or trade and such like needed place that’s WORTH INVESTING your – TIME, FINANCE and EFFORT. It’s time to update your worlds for your GRACIOUSNESS, GRACEFULNESS, FRUITFULNESS and BLESSEDNESS.

Listen – I love PRAYERS and I enjoy God’s PRESENCE in PRAYERS; but please, please, don’t use PRAYERS to OVERLOOK your ambassadorial place of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY in the PRINCIPLE of doing life and living godly by God’s WORD in context. Know for sure that FAITH without WORKS is dead (inactive, inoperative) and it’s standing alone. PRAYERS without corresponding ACTIONS will keep one MOANING and COMPLAINING and BLAMING others through life. Take the scale off your eyes and look up to the stars – you can shine again. The Daystar lives in you for your dawn day to glow – 2 Peter 1:19; Proverbs 4:18.

GIVE YOUR CURRENT LIFE A MEANING – INVEST IN KNOWLEDGE – YOU ARE WORTH A HEALTHIER LIVING – BUT FIRSTLY IN MINDS AND THOUGHTS – AND EVERY OTHER THINGS WILL FALL IN PLACE.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

MAXIMISE YOUR GOD GIVEN RESOURCES WITH RESOLVES

By Leave a Comment

MAXIMISE YOUR GOD GIVEN RESOURCES WITH RESOLVES: TIME, EFFORTS [MENTAL/PHYSICAL EXERTION], FINANCE, MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] AND PEOPLE!
 
Are you keen to live in the realm of a More Than CONQUERORS? Also keen To SUCCEED? Keen To EXCEL and be ABOVE ONLY? Keen To THRIVE Instead of SURVIVE? Here is the WISDOM NUGGETS guide for now, for your today and tomorrow.
 
“Nay, in all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS through him that loved us” Romans 8:37.
 
I want you to know that a colourful and thriving life is a place of graciousnesss, gracefulness and loveliness; however, it’s not a give away otherwise the beggar [slothful and sluggard] will ride with ease, hence it’s not cheap and not for the lazy, sluggard [slothful] and idlers. It is for the RESOLVES to succeed, excel and to be above only, with a PRAGMATIC and INTENTIONAL plan, purpose and pursuit, and to BECOME in the grace, in order to attain to the fulness of God’s testament for them; for whatever had no process it’s an act of fraud, hence there’s the need to MAXIMISE your God given basic RESOURCES to do life and live godly in the grace and these are – TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL [EQUIPMENT] and PEOPLE; and experiencing the colourful and thriving life in the grace is possible as you earnestly and meaningfully endeavour to endorse, ensure and be assured of your set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT in the grace – for that’s to enable you to create, innovate, initiate and explore the resource of grace within you effortlessly and unhindered; also, with the enabling leverage toward an onward, upward trajectory in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. [1 Corinthians 2:9-10; Romans 8:28-30].
 
The knowing that ‘YOU ARE OF GOD’, “BELOVED OF GOD” and “BELOVED BY GOD” makes you readily and steadily able to succeed, triumph, win and overcome and be a more than conquerors that’s living victoriously, in life and godliness. And that makes colourful and thriving life accessible, and more so, the knowing that the GREATER ONE lives within you. [1 John 4:4-16].
 
Therefore, it’s imperative to let your TIME, EFFORT, FINANCIAL, MATERIAL and PEOPLE resources count and account for your good. For “SUCCESS IS FAILURE TURN INSIDE OUT”, which is a result of one respecting the opportunity to diligently and prudently utilised one’s given resources: TIME, EFFORT, FINANCE, MATERIAL and PEOPLE. This also means you can become what you want to be if you walk in wisdom with your God given resource in your day to day PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.
 
It is on this platform that one can also become A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, live a COLOURFUL and THRIVING life instead of being a SURVIVAL which some like to ascertain for self-pity I guessed.
 
I pray you abound BLESSED. Be EMPOWERED to SUCCEED as a MORE THAN CONQUERORS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen! You ARE BELOVED and MORE THAN – Don’t Live For Less In REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. Amen!!
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven . . .11 He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of DIVINE PURPOSE] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11/Amplified.
 
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE. 29 For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED. Romans 8:28-30.
 
“Ye ARE of God, little children, and have OVERCOME them: because GREATER is he that is in you, THAN he that is in the world. 5 They ARE of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We ARE of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error” 1 John 4:4-6.
 
“Whoso KEEPETH the COMMANDMENT shall FEEL NO EVIL THING: and a WISE man’s heart DISCERNETH both TIME and JUDGMENT” Ecclesiastes 8:5.
 
“The PREPARATIONS of the heart in man, and the ANSWER of the tongue, is from the Lord. 2 All the WAYS of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the Lord WEIGHETH the spirits. 3 Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established . . . 7 When a man’s WAYS PLEASE the Lord, he MAKETH even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him. 9 A man’s heart DEVISETH his way: but the Lord DIRECTETH his STEPS” Proverbs 16:1-3, 7, 9.
 
“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall STAND before kings (Honour, Dignity, Noble); he shall not STAND before mean(Obscure, Unproductive) men” Proverbs 22:29.
“He who TILLS (CULTIVATES) his LAND will be SATISFIED with BREAD, But he who follows FRIVOLITY is DEVOID of understanding” Proverbs 12:11/NKJV.
 
“He who TILLS (CULTIVATES) his land will have PLENTY of bread, But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough! 20 A FAITHFUL man will ABOUND with BLESSINGS, But he who HASTENS to be rich will not go unpunished. 21 To show partiality is not good, Because for a piece of bread a man will transgress. 22 A man with an EVIL eye HASTENS after RICHES, And does not consider that poverty will come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22/NKJV.
 
“The horse is PREPARED against the DAY OF BATTLE: but SAFETY is of the Lord” Proverbs 21:31.
 
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy MOUTH; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest OBSERVE to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.

READ BEFORE YOU RUN: WISDOM IS THE APPLICATION OF KNOWLEDGE!

“. . . 2 And the Lord answered me, and said, WRITE the VISION, and make it PLAIN upon TABLES, that he may RUN that READETH it . . .” Habakkuk 2:1-4.

Don’t be fooled. Ignorance is destructive, cancerous and killing. Knowledge delivers and emancipates. Understanding gives direction and drive. Wisdom is the application of knowledge.

” Jesus answered and said to them, “YOU ARE MISTAKEN, NOT KNOWING the SCRIPTURES nor the POWER of God” Matthew 22:29/NKJV.

“For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY of KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM giveth LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:12.

A person of wisdom is given to life and strength; given to time, opportunity and right judgement. Wisdom is the principal thing. Ensure you get understanding while in all your search for knowledge.

“Wisdom is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.

As wisdom is the application of knowledge, so a man’s wisdom makes him to shine, radiates in glory and boldness without fear; much more, there is no room to feel evil when you know you are wisely living by the commandment of our God in Christ Jesus stead. And you can discern by such knowledge wisely utilises and redeem the time and make judgement of a context irrespective, without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation.

“Who is as the WISE man? and who knoweth the INTERPRETATION of a thing? a man’s WISDOM maketh his FACE to SHINE, and the BOLDNESS of his face shall be changed . . . 5 Whoso KEEPETH THE COMMANDMENT shall FEEL no EVIL thing: and a WISE man’s heart discerneth both TIME and JUDGMENT” Ecclesiastes 8:1, 5.

Therefore, READ BEFORE YOU RUN, so that you can make the right decision and maximise your given potential to fulfil purpose meaningfully with God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!!
