Topic: TAKE THE INITIATIVES (Part 2)!
Memory Verse: "And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do" - John 6:6 KJV
Bible Text: Ecclesiastes 11:4 KJV
4. He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
INSPIRATION: Sometimes, some people want to get all the clarity before they set sail. Whilst it's okay to so do, it is often not always in all instances that they're right or they ever get to do anything thereafter. Certain level of details would never be at your disposal until you've acted on your conviction. Some people complain of never getting recognised or given a raise at work but their appraisals show they've been docile and uninspiringly worthless to the team.
If you're proven like Jesus did to Philip, do you know what to do? Do you have a mind of your own that can process thoughts on its own and provide leadership at a larger scale or you're one who can't see beyond your nose or act right without being instructed? Do you have a problem-solving skill that gets activated when problems spring up or are you intuitively proactive enough to foresee and forestall one? Can you maximise opportunities that others can't see or take?
TODAY'S TAKE HOME:
Responsible people get things done and take responsibility for their decisions and actions. The opposite is true for people who can't take initiatives.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, please help me see the bigger picture and take the right action in every situation. Help me to increase my problem-solving skills so I can remain an invaluable asset all the time, in Jesus name.
