This person always has more than enough!

Proverbs 12:24 -The hand of the diligent will rule, But the lazy man will be put to forced labor.

The diligent and lazy person are polar opposites. The diligent maximize their time, their talents and abilities, and their resources to ensure that they take care of their families, businesses and ministries. They take responsibility for their lives and actions. They refuse to blame others for their mistakes. Instead, they take responsibility for their mistakes and do what is needed to correct them. The lazy person refuses to cultivate their land, so they will suffer hunger during the harvest season. The diligent will rule. They will get the promotion. They will get the prize. The lazy will end up working for the diligent. It’s up to you; will you be the diligent one, or the lazy one?

Proverbs 12: 11 – He who [c]tills his land will be satisfied with bread, but he who follows [d]frivolity is devoid of [e]understanding.

  1. We are also given the example of the ants – “Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise! ” (Proverbs 6:6 [NLT] )
