Character Is Critical

DAY 3 OF 3

Stay Diligent.

Your work ethic will set you apart. Your execution and diligence will cause you to stand before kings and great men. Choose to diligently focus on building your character, diligence and your skillset. Submit to wise counsel and ask God to reveal the areas that are underdeveloped. Ask God to surround you with iron sharpening, diligent, God-sent men who will help strengthen the areas where you are weak. Don’t ignore your weak areas. Don’t ignore your soft spots. Allow God to sharpen every area that needs development. Accept constructive feedback from those who are more seasoned and more developed than you. Submit your heart and your hands to God. Let Him guide your path.

Diligence is intentional and it focuses on a specific area. What area(s) has God called you to focus on? Maybe it’s spending more time with Him. Maybe it’s spending more time with your family. Maybe it’s building a business. Maybe it’s building a ministry. Maybe it’s something small. Maybe it’s something large. No matter the task or the objective, choose to diligently focus on the assignment that He gives you. Focus on the assignment at hand. Your obedience and diligence in this season will produce results for seasons to come. 

Diligence and execution is critical to your harvest. Choose not to slack. Focus on what God tells you to focus on. It’s time to produce. ”Do you see a man diligent and skillful in his business? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.” Proverbs 22:29 AMPC

Diligence coupled with Godly character is critical for your next level. Maybe you’re stuck in a dry place because your character is flawed. Maybe you’re repeating life cycles due to a lack of faith, obedience, and diligence. Learn the lesson, and propel forward into what God has for you. Allow God to surround you with iron sharpening relationships that will help you focus on the area(s) that God wants to mature. 

Prayer:

Father God, in the mighty Name of Jesus, there is no one like You in all the Earth. You are Wonderful, Powerful, Matchless, and Everlasting. Father, you are full of Grace, Mercy and Wisdom. Your Name is above all names. There is none like You. My heart surrenders to You. My hands surrender to You. My gifts and abilities surrender to You. I surrender my plans to You. I surrender my work ethic to You. Father, I surrender my tongue to You. The talents and abilities, that You have given to me, I surrender to You. 

Lord, guide my path and teach my hands how to execute. Father, teach me how to finish. Father, grant me the faith and grace to finish the things that You’ve called me to accomplish. Lord, guide my footsteps so that my feet won’t slip. Teach my hands to skillfully execute upon the vision that You have given me. Father, I surrender every area of my life to You. Father, every hidden area I give to You. Lord, I surrender my business, family, career, and ministry to You. Father, I am fully Yours. In Jesus Name. Amen.
