DILIGENCE 

Proverbs 12:16-28
Devotional: “The hand of the diligent will rule, But the lazy man will be put to forced labor.” (V. 24)


    To be lazy at work is a crime. This is because your work is your purpose of creation. Your work or business is a service to the Lord. Your work is your contribution to your world. Your work is the value of your life. Can you imagine how much a lazy man stand to lose?

 The scripture we read today says, a diligent man will rule. In other words, a diligent man will be distinct, he will be recognized by God for what he does and he will be qualified for promotion (Genesis 39:4, Luke 16:10-12). A diligent man will be favored. He will be recommended for his work and he will be dependable and appreciated. But laziness put a man under a forced labour.

People become lazy when they find out that their expectations from a work or business is not coming. But a diligent man has a right motive. He is not looking at what man will say or not. He is working for the Lord and that is his rewarder. To be diligent is to put in the best in your work to get the best result. It is to put in to the work more than normal. Surely, such will be promoted by the Lord and will soon be leader of others.

PRAYER: Lord, put a diligent Spirit in me.

“AVOIDING YOUR WORK IS AVOIDING PROMOTION “

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.
