Text: Proverbs 30:28 (New Living Translation)

Lizards—they are easy to catch, but they are found even in kings’ palaces.


Continued from yesterday...

 

Lizards are capable of moving through walls despite the challenges of navigating through wall cracks and creaks in order to get to different locations. If they need to pass through a tiny space, Lizards can make their bodies very flat so that they can pass through.


An indication that you would achieve your visions, dreams, and goals is your ability to navigate through challenges, obstacles, hindrances, and roadblocks. 


A vision is a picture of a preferred future, but before that future is reached there are the present negative situations you must deal with.

 

It is not enough to have vision, you must also have a mapped out plan and strategy to help you achieve such visions. You must be able to envisage obstacles and challenges ahead and put them into consideration while you plan. 


And when the challenges and obstacles come, you must be able to adapt and adjust to overcome it. You must develop the ability of changing form, style, and approach. 


Even right now, what adjustments are you making to ensure that you overcome the present obstacle standing between you and your next goals? Don't just pray and wish for it to go away alone, there is an action you must take.

 

Moses had to stretch out the rod in his hands before the Red Sea parted. In Joshua's time, the priests had to go into the Jordan River with the Ark on their shoulders before it parted. 

 

A march around for 6 days and a 7-time march and shouts brought down Jericho. David had to throw the stone in his sling before Goliath fell.

 

No two challenges are the same, and only those with the ability to adapt and change form (strategy, approach) can conquer their challenges.


"When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps." ~ Confucius

 

 Have a graced day...

Theme: My God: My Shepherd Anchor Text: Psalms 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. The 23rd Psalm is one of the most well known passages of the Bible. The description is so vivid and real that it is certain that the one who wrote this understood and must have an in-depth experience concerning that which he wrote. The 23rd Psalm is a psalm of assurance and it's opening verse sets that in motion immediately. David probably thought of himself as a shepherd leading those sheep through the mountains and finding pasture and water for them. Not to mention the times he had to fight beasts to keep them safe. He then thought of how God had led him through the years and all he could say was the Lord is my Shepherd. How often have you thought of God's guidance, provision and protection deeply for these are the functions of a Shepherd towards his sheep. He guides them, provides for them and protects them. The Lord is my Shepherd: I don't need to go worrying abo...

Theme: The Devil's Devices (Part 5)  Text: 2 Corinthians 2:11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. The second device used by the devil is DOUBT. Doubt is a powerful tool in the devil's arsenal that robs men of God's best I'll like us once again to look at Genesis. [1]NOW THE serpent was more subtle and crafty than any living creature of the field which the Lord God had made. And he [Satan] said to the woman, Can it really be that God has said, You shall not eat from every tree of the garden? [2]And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden, [3]Except the fruit from the tree which is in the middle of the garden. God has said, You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die. [4]But the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die, [5]For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing the differe...

Theme:   Your Inherent Power Level Defines Your Glory Level   Anchor Text:  Mark 13:26 King James Version And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. Glory is desired by most of us. We seek dignity, honour and even praise that is worthy of a successful life. Yet as believers we don't seek it the wrong way like others do. The anchor text says when Jesus returns He will be coming in both power and glory. Is there a relationship between this two amazing words and concept? If so how are they related? I'll try to explain it as best as I can... 1 Corinthians 15:41 says _ 'There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.' _ This means that the level of glory displayed be it Divine, human or even created things differ. Why is there such difference? Using stars to illustrate, we know that _ 'stars shine becaus...
