Are we grateful for the assignment that God has given us?

“Everything God creates has a purpose.” We have a purpose in life. However, the assignment that is not recognized is the assignment that remains hidden. Thus, your gifts and uniqueness will not be able to be shared with your loved ones and friends until you recognize that you have a unique purpose in life. It’s vital to realize and recognize that God created you with gifts, abilities and a sphere of influence. There are people that you are assigned to and they are waiting for you to activate who you are in Christ. When you choose to reveal the gifts and abilities that God placed in you, watch how His grace, love and goodness will flow mightily through you. All God is waiting for is your willingness and obedience!

Jeremiah 1: 4-5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

Mine your business!

The term “mind your own business” is not a new term. The Apostle Paul told the church back in his day to mind their own business and to work with their own hands. This way they would be able to walk worthy of their call and lack nothing. 1 Thessalonians 4: 10-12 says: “But we urge you, brethren, that you increase more and more;  that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you, that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.” The Lord Jesus told His parents that He had to be about His Father’s business (Luke 2:49). So the focus for those who succeed in their endeavors is to not only mind or tend to their business, but to also “mine” their business. the word mine has various meanings. One of the meanings is: a place where there is a rich source of supply that needs to be accessed by digging. Gold and silver is found deep within mines. We also have rich resources within us. God has already equipped us with wisdom, abilities, potential, partnerships, resources and seed to be prosperous and lack nothing. So it’s time to stop looking for others to make things happen for us, and to look at what God has already placed in our hands. Say like Jesus and Paul: “I must be about my Father’s business”, and begin to “mine” your own business!

Luke 2:49 “And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”
