NOTHING WORKS UNLESS YOU DO
The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
Genesis
2:15 (NIV)
As
an adult you have to do work of some sort whether it is ministry, business, or
a job. You have to in some way, shape or form engage in service to mankind. You
cannot afford to be idle because that will only lead to poverty.
When
you work in service to mankind you make a difference. Making a difference is
the number one reason why you are here and it is your choice how you will make
that difference. When you work you will profit.
In
all labor there is profit, but idle chatter leads only to poverty.
Proverbs
14:23
You
were created to work and manage the earth. There is no getting around it, but
you find some people who want to do well financially but don’t want to engage
in work. That is laziness and it leads to poverty.
He
who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.
Proverbs
10:4
Lazy
people end up poor and hardworking people end up rich. The rich know how to
work both hard and smart. In other words the rich work hard and get wisdom. The
rich don’t just work hard but they use wisdom.
Wealth
is in wisdom not just in hard work however, hard work is an integral part of
wealth. You cannot be idle and expect to do well financially because nothing
works unless you do.
So
engage yourself, create a product or engage in some service to humanity. Make a
difference and you will be rewarded. Solve problems and you will be rewarded.
Move humanity forward and you will be rewarded.
That
you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work
with your own hands, as we have commanded you, that you may walk properly
toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.

Thessalonians 4:11-12
Thought
of the day: Nothing works unless I do.
Confession:
I refuse to be lazy and I choose to be diligent.
