Do not expend energies running in wide circles that lead
nowhere. Focus on a destination and decide on the best, fastest but godly and safest
route to get there; right on time; God’s time. This calls for divine guidance
from God. This also presupposes that you have ascertained the specified
destination from God; therefore you know where you are headed but require a
strategic roadmap.
Give empowering gifts. Empowering gifts empower
people to become who God created them to be, enable them to achieve divine
destinies. Therefore, you should love and enjoy teaching people to do things
right.
The responsibility of a Christian is to solve
problems for humanity and not only cater for his or her family’s needs. Joseph
did. Daniel did. Esther did. Nehemiah did. So also are many historical and
contemporary people that you have either heard about, read about, watched
videos of and have even seen. The problems they solved moved them up in the
ladder of life and wealth. The choice is yours. God has a place for you in the
kingdom. Know exactly what to do and how to do it.
Develop your craft. Challenge the area of your
limitation. Creative people always find ways to transcend the limits put on
them. Learn if you have to learn and ensure you learn the right things.
Partner if you need to but make sure you are working
with strategic partners that you can leverage on their strengths to get more mileage.
Be You. Do not tell lies or pretend to be who and
what you are not. Be honest and transparent. Let your partners know upfront
what your capacities are so that they can fill in whatever gaps you have.
Be diligent. Please see Proverbs Chapter 27 verses
23 to 27. Pay attention to details. Have an analytical mind that makes analysis
on the basis of sufficient but intelligently gathered information that is
relevant to what you are about to decide on as well as act on. Also, work with
current information and ensure beyond all reasonable doubt that the information
at your disposal is correct, relevant, current and not outdated. Do not for any
reason whatsoever assume that the information you were given is the most
current information. Take time to cross check whatever information you have
with the relevant authorities to ensure you are working with the right
information. Working with wrong information is as good as steering your ship
right into an iceberg meaning that no matter how fast you travel on a wrong
route, you will never get to your destination.
Do not waste ample time on people who are stuck in a
rut; who never want to change; are opposed to change because they are as good
as people who are hard of hearing or completely deaf. Talking to such people is
not only a waste of time but also gives the impression that you who is doing
the talking does not know what you are doing or even does not know where you
are going. The implication is that you should be strategic in your choice of relationships.
Negative relationships impact negatively while positive relations not impact
positively but also have the additional benefits of moving you up in the ladder
of life. Ruth walked with Naomi and became the wife of Boaz and ancestor of our
Lord Jesus Christ. Samson walked with Delilah and was destroyed, painfully so
at the prime of his life.
Beloved, be strategic
and move rapidly in the ladder of success. God bless you and make His face
shine upon you in Jesus mighty name. Be blessed and enlarged in Jesus mighty
name. Shalom.
