FOCUS






Spend Sometime to study the life of Apostle Paul, you'll find that he flourished in his business with God. But one little secret I've discovered from study is that he did not desire to be what God did not make him. He did not leave his duty call to chase after other luxurious ambitions or duties.


"For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect"
-1Corinthians 1:17

He knew exactly what he was called to do and never accepted to be lured into other administrations for whatsoever.

Recall in Acts 9: 6; 16-20
"And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do"
"And Ananias went his way, and entered into his house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.
And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God"

God called him to preach the gospel and he never deviated from it, so he flourished. Many persons today have been called to do one thing, yet they feel the other is in trend and they move headlong with it and end up with a  great crash. God help us!

"And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it"
-Colossians 4:17

Let us focus on our call that we may fulfill it.
If you don't know what God has called you to do in this world, now is a good time to ask him in the place of prayer.

Have a nice day,
God bless you!
