Word for the day: “Leaders, your time is now.”
Psalm 138:8 (NKJV) The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
GREAT DAY LEADERS,
The amazing transformation God is manifesting in your life requires that you must advance in his purposes for your life right now. As you step into the now of your divine purposes, do not exhaust any more resources of time and energy on people who are indifferent to his plan for your life. This is significant because time is the one resource you can never recover. I challenge and deputize you to enter this time of your life in prayer and intentionality as God begins to reveal more of your divine purpose.
NOW IS THE TIME TO BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT YOUR LEADERSHIP AND LIFE.
I believe and declare this will be the time and season of receiving the things you have been praying for. As the Bible says, “The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands.”. I want you to take just a few minutes and give God praise for what God is doing in your life. Begin talking to yourself about it and writing it down on paper, just thanking God for what you believe He is doing in your life.
Even if you are not where you want to be, you're making progress; you're growing, transforming, maturing, and being developed by the hand of God.
Just keep reminding yourself, “For the race is not given to the swift, nor is it given to the strong; it is given to those who shall endure till the end” (Ecclesiastes 9:11). So, at this time in our journey, let’s simply thank God for keeping us, for blessing us, and for making us wiser, better, and even stronger. Remember to think and thank as God’s purposes begin to unfold in our lives.
GOD CAN BE TRUSTED WITH YOUR FUTURE.
I believe God can be trusted with our future even in the midst of these visceral times of evil and trauma emotionally, spiritually, psychologically, financially, and in our families. The Lord is still on the throne!
I felt compelled to let you know that you can depend on God and the people the Lord has strategically placed in your life. You know who those people are. Now is the time to advance in your future because tomorrow is not promised to any of us.
POINT TO PONDER
I believe our lives are in divine order, and ultimately, as we submit ourselves and our lives to the Lord, “Everything is going to be alright.” Keep praying and trusting the Lord with you and your families.
