[1 Chronicles 12:32 KJV] “And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment”.

One of the most important secrets to success and prosperity is to gain understanding into the times and to know what the team ought to do. There is no greater disaster than to loose your sense of direction, purpose and vision.

When Mary anointed Jesus Christ with oil, Judas erred because he neither had understanding into the times nor knew what the team ought to have done. The greater evil is that even when he was taught by his pastor, he refused to heed. He thought he knew better and he distrusted his pastor. He thought Jesus was only making excuses because He was enjoying the advantage (See Ezekiel 23:1-8,14)

The Bible teaches in James 1:5-9 that if any of us is in doubt as to what to do and how to go about it, let him ask God. Everyone of us must know what to do and how to go about it at all times.

To win in 2019;

1. Ask the Lord for wisdom: 

Let the Lord show you what to do and how to go about it.

[Proverbs 3:5-7] “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him”.

In all your ways, remember that except He builds the house, they labor in vain that build it.

Know exactly what must be done and how to go about it: it is called planning, what is the goal and the steps towards achieving it.

2. Sit down and count the cost: 

Don’t start anything for which you have not counted the cost.

[Luke 14:28 KJV] “For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it ?.”

Remember that somethings will literally cost you your very life and relationships.

3. Don’t sleep or slack, take action: 

Those who sleep fail.

[Proverbs 6:9-10 KJV] “How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? [10] Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:”

[Proverbs 23:31-33 KJV] “Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. [32] At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. [33] Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things”.

Stay blessed; I love you!
