How do you run your life’s race with peace and joy?
I want to exhort each one of us to continue with a clean heart even if for now it seems not to pay. The Bible tells us that God is good to those who have a clean heart. The Lord will be good to you when you continue with a clean heart, it will pay.
[Psalms 73:1-3, 16-17 KJV]“Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.”
When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.”
Race of life
I want to exhort you to continue with a clean heart. Don’t fret, don’t scheme, nor be envious of the foolish (the one who says there is no God) and the wicked (one who acts and makes choices that favour himself or herself alone). We must learn to continue to walk with a clean heart.
The best you can do is to strive to;
- See and believe
- Pray and plan
- Prophesy and pursue the purpose of God for your life with passion, power, wisdom, diligence, and strategy.
1. See and believe
What do you see in the hand of God? Your visions will shape your passion and Pursuits.
What do you see? Lift your eyes; you can possess as far as you can see if you believe. What do you see in the Word of God, in visions, and dreams? What do you see when your pastor is preaching? What do you see?
2. Pray and plan
The second thing to do to stay free from fret, envy, and scheming is to pray and plan. Praying is important and planning is extremely important. Failing to plan is planning to fail.
When you commit your ways (plans) into the hands of God, He establishes your going. We must arise, pray and plan.
3. Prophecy and publish
Lastly, you must both prophesy and publish the visions; even as you run with passion, power, wisdom, strategy, and diligence. This is the secret to becoming all that God created you to be.
Don’t fret, don’t scheme, and don’t envy. Let us focus on the tower. Strive to see and believe; pray and plan, and pursue with power, passion, diligence, strategy, and wisdom.
