*KNOW THIS TRUTH*
And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and, behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man unto me, and said, Keep this man: if by any means he is missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or else thou shalt pay a talent of silver. *And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone*. And the king of Israel said, So shall thy judgment be; thou hast decided it.
1 Kings 20:39-40.
*MEDITATE ON THIS:*
It's possible to be busy with distractions. You must avoid that this year.
Being focused is a discipline of the heart and mind. Many things are calling for your attention, such as other people's success, your personal ambitions, and the influence of friends, among others. But you must learn to create a system around you that will consistently make you do things that are important and relevant.
From our Text, the servant gave the reason why he lost what was entrusted into his hand. Not because the victim was stronger than him, but because he was busy here and there.
What is taking you “here and there” in the sense of it? It is okay to be dynamic, innovative and strategic; but don't be distracted. It is okay to be innovative, but avoid deviation.
Write the vision, itemise the strategy, and let every business drive you toward the main vision. Win people to The Kingdom, make new friends, honour old relationships; whatever you do, do not be distracted.
It is my prayer for you that you will stay focused, strategic, and dynamic, and you will enjoy fruitful seasons in Jesus' Name.
