Go To The AntSample
No Overseer.
“Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,” Proverbs 6:7 KJV
The ant does not have an overseer, ruler or guide but yet it gathers and harvests. What’s your excuse? Develop a practical daily diligence plan. Write down the vision and take small practical steps everyday towards accomplishing the vision. Habakkuk 2:2 AMPC states, “And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and engrave it so plainly upon tablets that everyone who passes may [be able to] read [it easily and quickly] as he hastens by.” Write the plan and start the work! “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin...” Zechariah 4:10 NLT.
Excuses will keep you paralyzed. Present and surrender your work and plans to the Lord and He will cause your actions to succeed. (Proverbs 16:3 NLT) Fear will immobilize and imprison your Destiny. Keep executing. Keep moving. Keep progressing towards the vision that God has assigned to you.
God has placed gifts, talents, resources, witty ideas and inventions inside of you that He wants to see flourish through you. God delights in your diligence. Your obedience gives Him Glory. When you surrender your gifts, talents and abilities over to Him, God will order your footsteps and guide you into everything that He has prepared for you even before the foundations of the world. Trust God and write that book, build that business, open that school... go back to school. Write down the vision and take steps towards accomplishing what God has placed in your heart to pursue.
Move forward and release past hurts and failures of the past. Release slothful behavior and slothful thinking. God has given you a fresh start. Move forward with what God has Called you to do. Favor is already prepared as you execute and move forward.
There is favor waiting for you. Step forward. There is a new thing that God wants to birth out of you. However, the birthing of your “new thing” requires your obedience. Submit to God. Move forward and innovate — the world is waiting on your obedient and diligent execution.
Obey God and birth out something new. “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:19 KJV
