BECOMING AN ASSET FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD
SCRIPTURE: And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field. – Genesis 39:5-6
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Living to be a concern is the reason for many tragedies in the lives of people.
God’s original reason for our creation is for us to be a blessing and not a burden; an asset and not a concern. His intention for our existence is that anywhere we are found, we should contribute positively to the benefit of the people in our generation.
Why is it important for us to know this? It is because attitude determines altitude in life; mentality is the secret of exploit in life.
Therefore, anywhere you find yourself, refuse to be a burden or a concern. Living to be a concern is the reason for many tragedies in the lives of people.
What, then, does it mean to be an asset to your generation?
It is to be a difference-maker; a change agent. It is living in such a way that your arrival in a place announces change. Live in a way to make a difference anywhere you are found. Let there be a positive shift in everything because you are found in a place. When you live like this, the top position is your place in life. That was how Joseph lived.
You shall be a blessing to your generation in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: Living to be a concern is the reason for many tragedies in the lives of people.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Ask God for a change of your mindset concerning His purpose for your life.
2. Refuse to be a burden or concern to your generation.
3. Make up your mind to be an asset in your generation.
PRAYER: O LORD, I ask that You make me an asset to my world. Make me a blessing and not a burden to my generation in Jesus’ Name.
