Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 17 April 2025 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche – Why Must I Take Personal Responsibility?
TOPIC: Why Must I Take Personal Responsibility? (Seeds Of Destiny 17 April 2025)
SCRIPTURE: “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” John 9:4 (NIV).
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You take personal responsibility because no one can help you like yourself, and no one can encourage you like you.
MESSAGE:
Personal responsibility is a critical requirement for progress in life. Jesus Christ demonstrated this in John 9:4 when He declared: I must work the works of Him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
Notice the words: I must work the works…
This statement highlights personal responsibility.
That is why you must make up your mind to do whatever it takes for your life to change.
Now, why is it important to take personal responsibility?
It is important because no one can help you like yourself, and no one can encourage you like you.
Others may genuinely care about you, but no one can be as interested in your life as yourself. Once you realize that no one can help you better than yourself, you will rise like a lion and take personal responsibility for your situation to change.
When you understand that no one else can do it for you, you will stop waiting for people. You might have many relatives, but none of them is as connected to your situation as you are. Even your closest family members have their personal concerns to deal with.
The best brother, sister, father, or mother you can ever have is yourself. That is why you must rise and take responsibility for the changes you desire in your life.
Beloved, stop waiting for others to do it for you; do it yourself. Arise and take personal responsibility today.
REMEMBER THIS: You take personal responsibility because no one can help you like yourself, and no one can encourage you like you.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Refuse to rely on others for help; trust God completely.
- Wake up and take personal responsibility for your life.
PRAYER: Father, I repent completely today from relying on others for help. I receive the grace to fix my gaze on You and take personal responsibility for my life and destiny, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
