TOPIC: BE DILIGENT

Memory verse: 2 Tim. 2:6
“The hardworking farmer must be first to partake of the crops.”
Bible Reading: Prov. 12:11
KJV:He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.
NIV:Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense.
AMP:He who tills his land shall be satisfied with bread, but he who follows worthless pursuits is lacking in sense and is without understanding.
DILIGENCE AND WISDOM
(a) Be Wise In Your Diligence
The wisest man on Earth that ever lived, King Solomon Jesse, said something important to in today’s Bible reading and that’s why am quoting from different versions today.
Many are working diligently but foolishly. How do I mean? Many keep tilling someone else’s land and they are expecting to be blessed, No. You can’t be working in Ministry of works and expect your salary from Ministry of sport, it’s not done. 
Our reading says, “AMP:He who tills his land shall be satisfied with bread,
The land you till determines if your bread will satisfy you. Are you diligent In tilling your own land? Many work where they have no joy for a day. Are you running someone else’s vision or your vision? Many work without satisfaction and keep saying, “we have no option”, you have options to seek for your land and work there in.
You can’t be working on someone else’s land and expect him/her to allow you go home with the fruit of his/her land. Be diligent in working on your land.
(b) Wise In Spending
Many are not diligent in spending their income after diligently earned.
“… but he who follows worthless pursuits is lacking in sense and is without understanding.” Amplified Version: 
Many salaries end up in beer parlours, hotels, on Fancy materials, and non is being invested. Spend wisely. Safe part of your income. Invest in businesses (there are some that doesn’t need your physical presence).
Don’t be like those who lack sense. May you be wise with your diligently earned income in Jesus mighty name.
Have A Great Day Ahead
