MAKING YOURSELF RELEVANT
*WISDOM FOR TODAY.* *MAKING YOURSELF RELEVANT.* *Scripture Treasure.* Jude 1:20 ► *But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,* *Insight and Highlight.* Col 2:7 ► *Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.* *Scripture Commentaries.* A strong prerequisite to success is building yourself. People are often first attracted to what they saw. It is hard work to work hard on yourself. Prov 12:24 (NLT) says *Work hard and become a leader; be lazy and become a slave.* Prov 22:29 (NIV) says *Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.* Make yourself attractive to success. Let success itself see you as an attractive person to it. There is a maxim which says "you are addressed the way you are dressed", "dress as if you owned the bank"...etc. Though all these do make their impacts but key is working hard on yourself, seeking knowledge. Build yourself, work harder on yourself than you do on your job. You will live to thrive not just survive. Seek God, seek knowledge! Proverbs 19:2 (NIV) *Even zeal is no good without knowledge, and he who hurries his footsteps misses the mark.* If you work on your job you can make a living which is fine. If you work hard on yourself, you can make a fortune, which is super fine. Work on yourself, build yourself on the most holy faith. Make yourself relevant in the Kingdom of God by working on yourself. *Remorse corner.* Success is something you attract by making it attractive to yourself and making your self attractive to it. *Call to Word action.* Constantly build up yourself: Proverbs 21:5 *The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness..."* *The Christian clarion duty.* Prov 22:29 (NIV) says *Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.* *Prayer.* Lord, help me to set myself apart to diligently work on myself to produce dilligent hands in Jesus name. Good morning all and have a blessed day today. God bless you.
