Word for the day “Understand your assignment”
Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore, get wisdom: and in all your getting, get understanding.
Good morning leaders,
Be sure you understand your leadership assignment. In understanding the assignment God has for your life will literally be a game changer. Whatever you are called to do as you serve: in the community, in the church, in the marketplace, in your business, it’s time to be clear on your assignment and purpose.
When God gives you an assignment, it is not just for you, being clear on your assignment will enable you to execute in the power and favor of God. For so long, I was limiting my prayer life to asking God to bless me instead of what is my purpose in this generation. I decided to ask God. "Dear God, what is my assignment for this generation”. Now I pray daily for my daughter and grandchildren, because I knew deep down in my heart, I needed God's favor and blessings to flow upon my whole household. I encourage you to pray for your entire household daily for the blessings and favor of God to flow in the same direction of your God given assignment.
When God gives you an assignment, it is going to be bigger than what you can do in your natural power. If the accomplishments in our lives are attained only by our own human abilities, then we are not living up to the potential that God has placed in us through the power of His blessings and favor.
Today I serve in the communities where in equities permeate, in ministries where leaders need encouragement and empowerment, and in the marketplace where they need to know God is with them, because I’m keenly aware of my assignment and that God desires to bless you and everyone around you.
So, let’s do our part and learn our crafts and get our educational understanding as well. But be advised that God will give you knowledge and wisdom that no human person can get on their own. You are not limited to scholarly -knowledge. God will give you some insights, that school and social media won’t be able to provide.
God will reveal things in your spirit, that no other person will ever know. And may you begin to learn and trust what God has deposited in your spirit. For the Holy Spirit guides you into all truth (John 16:13). He will keep you on course, so that you will receive all that God has for you and the people you serve.
When you understand your assignment, you activate credibility, character, and competency in the work you provide to this generation. Believe me today understanding your assignment strengthens and brings life and blessing to everything that the Lord is saying and doing in your life and others.
I’ll be praying for you as you seek more diligently to embrace and understand your assignment.
