Day 15 – Maximize Your Potential

‘He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding’. Proverbs 12:11

You would notice the following points from today’s scripture:

It is a different thing to have a land and to till the land; it is a different thing to be gifted and to work hard at your gifting. It is one thing to have a job and it is another thing to work your job. It is something to have an idea and it is another to maximize the thoughts that God has given to you.

Look at that scripture again: ‘he that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread’. So, it is only the person that works on his gifting that will have bread. Anywhere in the Bible you find the word bread; it talks of wealth, money, abundance, etc. So, if you don’t work hard on the gifting, the opportunities or the provisions that God has given to you, you won’t have wealth.

Do you want to be wealthy? Till your ground! Go to school and study, go to work and work hard at your job. Let the ideas in your head be put on paper; then be stimulated to work on them. When the results come, it will turn to bread for you and for as many as are aquatinted with you.  Don’t fool around at your workplace today, work; and as you do so, the Lord will prosper you and make your day fruitful. This is wisdom for life.
