The Power Of Dedication!
“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” Colossians 3:23
One of the key ingredients to elevation is dedication! That is why dedication does not go around discrimination because it is a power of choice. It is a powerful force that can be used at any age to bring about change in our lives and communities. When we are committed to something, our whole being and life will come together for the greater good. Our time management will become more efficient, and our focus will be on the most important factor in how we live our lives, what matters most.
We cannot continue to live a life that calls for “whatever complacency” because whatever lifestyle will not create a better atmosphere in the nearest future. Why do you think the bible said, “it is good for a man to bear the yoke in the days of his youth “(Lamentations 3:27); and “teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom” (Psalm 90:12).” It means we have to take responsibility for what we do and who we are as individuals. Our minds cannot be renewed unless dedicated to God’s purpose.
Ecclesiastes 9:10 says, “Whatever you find to do with your hands, do it with all your might, for in Sheol, where you are going, there is no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom.”
If you want to get better, invest your time wisely and sharpen your mind daily in good things. As a youth, you need to be renewed with the pure word of God (knowledge) for you to become like an eagle. The wise one says, “knowledge is power,” the power to fly, the potential to become comes from running after the word of God. It is time to understand that though we have the same gift, we may not enjoy the same fruits. It takes knowledge to determine the results you will obtain in life. Therefore, don’t limit yourself because of a lack of knowledge. Hosea 4:6.
Once the knowledge of truth comes, you will find yourself in control of whatever is happening around you. Therefore, it is time for you to dedicate, fly and reign. It is time for you to acquire knowledge, let nothing hold you back. Not only must you possess the knowledge, but also apply it with understanding. Psalm 111:10 says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endures forever.”
Prayer:
1. Father, thank you for the knowledge you have made available for me to reign
2. Give me the heart to understand your word and the grace to apply it to my daily living in Jesus name Amen
