IT IS NOT WORKING

Topic: IT IS NOT WORKING
Biblical Text: And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, for now the Lord hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land. [Genesis 26:21]
A mans favorite donkey falls into a deep pit. He cant pull it out no matter how hard he tries. He therefore decides to bury it alive. Soil is poured onto the donkey from above; the donkey feels the load, shakes it off and steps on it. More soil is poured; the donkey shakes it off and steps on it. The more the load was poured, the higher the donkey rose. By noon, the donkey was out of the pit. What was meant to bury the donkey lifted him out of the pit. Do not admit too early that it is not working. If God is in it, it will eventually work. Isaac kept digging the well until they stopped contending with him on the ownership. God wants us to be patient and trust in Him. Although the man gave up trying to save his donkey, the donkey did not see it the same way; the donkey saw his escape in the horizon. We need to seek the face of God to find out why certain tasks in business, career or academic are fruitless or lacking result. If God is involved in your tasks, the end result is that it will work no matter how it appears at the moment. Hold on and do not despair, it will work in your hands in Jesus Name.
KNOW IT ∞ The end result of any endeavor that God is involved is productivity.
READ IT ∞ Psalm 119:105, Philippians 4:6, Romans 8:28
PRAY IT ∞ Father, in your mercy, open my eyes to see what I need to do to make what is not working in my hands to begin to work.

NO TIME

Topic: NO TIME
Biblical Text: “ Remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say; I have no pleasure in them. [Ecclesiastes 12:1]
A legend tells of the devil summoning his evil forces to consider how best to keep the world on his side. One demon said, send me. I will tell them there is no God. Satan replied, They will never believe you. Most of them know that there is a God. Another said, send me. I will tell them there is no heaven or hell. Satan shook his head, That will never do. They know there is life after death. Then a third spoke, send me. I will tell them there is a God, a heaven and a hell, but there is no hurry to decide, no time to give it a thought. Ah, said Satan with satisfaction that is the best plan! He was sent out into the world to spread the lie. Many times we allow the less important things in life take the place of the most important thing. We have time to execute the activities that feed our physical body but neglect our spiritual life; we are too busy to pray and read our Bible. We have time to surf the internet, play with our mobile phone, visit friends and play games at the most critical part of the day, leaving out the weightier matters of the law. The most important thing to have time for, are the things of God and there is always a divine blessing when we give Him our time.
KNOW IT ∞ Create time for the most important thing which is God centered.
READ IT ∞ Ephesians 5:15-17, Psalm 90:12, Ecclesiastes 3:1
PRAY IT ∞ Father, I receive grace to always have time for you and my kingdom assignment.

GOOD MORNING, HOLY SPIRIT
Date: 04.01.2021
Topic: GOOD MORNING HOLY SPIRIT
Biblical Text: “ With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. [Isaiah 26:9]
The story is told about a little boy who was flying a kite. It was a windy day, and the kite kept going higher and higher. Finally, it got so high that it was out of sight. A man passed by and saw the little boy holding onto the string. The man could not see the kite, and he asked the boy, How do you even know you have a kite up there? The boy replied, Because I can feel it. Although, we cannot see the Holy Spirit, we should be able to sense His work in our lives changing us into the image of Christ. The Holy Spirit is a person. Though, you cannot see Him, your sensitivity to the things of the Spirit, makes you feel His presence. As a child of God, we must recognize the importance of the Holy Spirit in our lives; He wants to lead us, teach us, guide us and comfort us. The more we give Him recognition, the more we feel His manifestation in our lives. Creating time in the morning to consciously fellowship with the Holy Spirit draws you closer to Him and His works. The only hindrance to enjoying the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit is sin. Run away from sin.
KNOW IT ∞ Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing, we are like coals without fire; we are useless.
READ IT ∞ John 14:26, 16:13, Romans 8:14
PRAY IT ∞ Holy Spirit, I consciously welcome you into my life, take the stirring wheel.

PROCASTINATION

Topic: *PROCASTINATION*
Biblical Text: “ *Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth and thy want as armed man”.* [Proverbs 6:10-11]
The sound of birds singing woke John from his bed; he had to go to school as he had a project submission on that particular day. John did not complete his project and this wasnt the first time he hadnt submitted his project on time. John entered the classroom and found that everyone submitted their project. Teacher asked, submit your project; as usual, John came up with an excuse, I had a serious headache the other night and I could not complete the work. Please give me an extension. The teacher replied, I will give you an extension on one condition; you have to submit the past two projects along with the present one tomorrow! Tomorrow, John exclaimed; Yes, tomorrow, the teacher replied. Imagine if John had completed his projects, he would not have been burdened with a lot of work at the same time. Procrastination is an act of delaying or putting off a task habitually or intentionally. The major cause of procrastination is laziness and doubt. God frowns at people who procrastinate. Jesus worked while it is day because He knew that at night, no man can work. Procrastination is a thief of personal effectiveness. Successful people do not postpone the task of today for tomorrow. To overcome procrastination; set goals for the day and try to complete them.
*KNOW IT* ∞ God frowns at procrastination.
*READ IT* ∞ Proverbs 24:33-34, John 9:4, Philippians 4:13
*PRAY IT* ∞ Father, let your strength be sufficient for you to finish every task on time without delay.
