Bible Verse of The Day – 12-12-18

Proverbs 13:4 (NKJV) 4 The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

Diligence is a big deal with God. He wants us to be diligent in all we do, from the smallest thing to the biggest thing.

God says that if we are diligent, our souls will be made rich. Did you notice the difference between what God says and what some others say?

Many people, including some in the church, will tell us that if we are diligent, we will become wealthy with material things. God says our soul will be made rich.

It’s important that we pay attention to this. Why? Because if our soul is rich, then and only then can we properly handle material wealth.

With material wealth there also comes a big responsibility. Most of us aren’t ready for material wealth when we think we are. And if we’re not careful, material wealth will ruin us in a hurry.

Sure, it makes some things a lot easier. But it can lead us into many, many snares if we don’t know how to properly handle it.

Let’s learn to become diligent, so our souls will prosper, before we worry about prospering with our finances.

Then, as we continue to be diligent, as God makes our soul prosper, so will He also help us to prosper financially, as He sees that we can handle it properly.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-20-16

Colossians 3:23-24 (NKJV) 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

As followers of Christ, God expects us to do everything with excellence.

This doesn’t mean that we have to be perfect. It means that when we set about doing something, He wants us to do it to the very best of our ability, as though we were doing it for Him.

It can be easy to do something halfheartedly, especially if we’re doing it for someone else. Sometimes we get the attitude that “it’s good enough”. So we finish what we’re doing and then move on to something else.

But just being “good enough” isn’t what God asks of us. He wants us to do all things as if we we’re doing them for Him!

This applies to our jobs, our school work, our chores, the help that we offer to others, etc. We spend our days doing things. We work, we go to school and we help those around us who are in need.

So when we’re doing these things, we need to be diligent and mindful to give what we do 100% of our effort and attention. Not 90%. Not 75%. Not 50%. Not even 99%. We need to give it our all.

Yes, it requires more effort. And yes, it may require more time to do it right. But if God requires that we do it as unto Him, who are we to disagree?
