Get Busy with Purpose

He who observes the wind will not sow, and he who regards the clouds will not reap. 5 As you do not know what is the way of the wind, or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, so you do not know the works of God who makes everything.
Ecclesiastes 11:4-5 (NKJV)

In the Kingdom of God, order is paramount. Everything works and produces for the higher purpose. There is no idle time to flaunt and waste. Situations, circumstances, conditions must never take away our focus on Him who is forever faithful. We must remain focus, unrelenting and committed to Kingdom causes, we must empty ourselves to furthering Kingdom causes as our strength and abilities permit for a time will come when these will be impossible. Unforeseen situations and conditions emerge that the God in some may manifest. Even the Lord stressed the need to get busy, purposeful and about Kingdom business.

I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.
John 9:4 (NKJV)

Inertia and inaction must never be an option, neither should we give in to stagnancy. Symbols of power, prominence as per the world's standard must not be our standard, but we must be driven by the word and focus on the One we work for. The Master was busy, active and purposeful, our own case can't be different.

Be encouraged,

Afolabi
