Audio Version
Proverbs 21:5 (KJV) – “The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want”
Success is never accidental. It is the outcome of steady effort, wise planning, and consistent diligence. The wisdom of God makes it clear: laziness and carelessness cannot produce lasting prosperity. It is diligent that attracts increase.
Diligence is the earnest application of one’s self to an undertaking, a steady effort and attentive care. It is the unwavering commitment to one’s endeavours, marked by persistent effort, meticulous attention to detail, and unrelenting dedication fuelled by a steadfast passion and unshakeable resolve.
Therefore, to embody diligence, you must cultivate a strong work ethic, persevere through challenges, and strive for continuous improvement. By doing so, you can unlock your full potential, achieve greatness and success.
Today, decide to be diligent with your calling, and your assignments and as you do, the blessings of God will multiply and overflow. Shout a loud Amen!
Start-up Prayer:
Father, I thank You for the wisdom of diligence. I ask that you Teach me to plan well, to work faithfully, and to stay consistent in the assignments You have given me in Jesus name.
