TEXT : Proverbs 6:7

How long will you lie down, lazy man? When will you get up from your sleep?

The ant is one of the smallest creatures on earth, yet God directs us to learn from it. Why? Because of the remarkable qualities this tiny insect possesses.

Proverbs 6:6 says, *“Go to the ant, you lazy man! Observe its ways and become wise.”* This shows clearly that God expects us to study the life of the ant and draw wisdom from it.

One striking quality of the ant is that it has no commander, no overseer, and no ruler (Proverbs 6:7). Yet, it works diligently, stays organized, and fulfills its purpose.

This teaches us a powerful lesson: true discipline comes from within, not from external pressure. *Anyone who can guide, correct, and motivate himself without being forced is not only mature but truly wise.* 

The ant does not wait to be pushed, monitored, or reminded before it acts. It understands responsibility and takes initiative. 

In the same way, God expects us to rise above laziness and excuses. We are not to depend solely on supervision before doing what is right, we must develop personal responsibility and spiritual discipline.

Beloved, how often do you delay what you should do simply because no one is watching? How many opportunities have been lost due to procastination and lack of self-drive?

 *God is calling you to a higher level of maturity, where you pray without being told, work without being chased, and live righteously even when no one is watching.* 

 *A life without self-discipline invites stagnation, but a disciplined life produces growth, excellence, and divine favor.* 

 *BIBLE READING:* 

Proverbs 6:6-11.

 *PRAYER FOCUS:* 

Father, Lord, help me to develop self-discipline. Teach me to do what is right without being compelled. Deliver me from laziness and give me the wisdom to live a purposeful and diligent life, in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
