Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 22 February 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: Maximize Opportunities; Realize Your Destiny
TOPIC: Maximize Opportunities; Realize Your Destiny (Seeds Of Destiny 22 February 2024)
SCRIPTURE: A wise youth works hard all summer; a youth who sleeps away the hour of opportunity brings shame. – Proverbs 10:5 (NLT)
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Every passing day of your life presents you with an opportunity to define or redefine your destiny.
MESSAGE:
It has been confirmed that what you are today is the product of what you did or failed to do yesterday; and where you will be tomorrow is the product of what you are doing or fail to do today.
You see, every passing day of your life presents you with an opportunity to define or redefine your destiny.
For example, you may have the privilege of opening a door for an elderly person, a chance to make a presentation, or offer a particular service; never hesitate to maximize it. That is an opportunity for you to redefine your destiny; maximize it by giving it your best. This is because wasted opportunities of yesterday are the reasons for the regrets of today.
You see, there are people who work in a place half-heartedly. It is common to hear such people say, “I am just working temporarily here. My real work is not this one; by the time I get my real work, I will give it my best.”
If you have this kind of mentality, you are wasting your time. You are in essence wasting your life because time is the building block of your life. The wastage of time is the wastage of life. When the time ends for a person, we say, he has died.
You see, as time passes, and you are not investing your life and the best of all you have into time, your life is wasting without your knowledge.
The wisdom is, anywhere you find yourself per time, whether as a cleaner, sweeper, tailor, mechanic, or messenger, etc., give that task everything you possess. Let it become your habit to always give your best per time. After a short time, that excellence that has become your habit will form your character and your character will determine your destiny.
REMEMBER THIS: Every passing day of your life presents you with an opportunity to define or redefine your destiny.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Refuse to allow any opportunity or moment pass you by without sowing the seed of excellence and hard work.
- Do not be weary in doing the right thing.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive the grace to be consistent in doing the right thing. Help me not to be weary in doing good, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
