BUILD YOUR CAPACITY – Daily Devotional

 

📖 Scriptural Text:
(Ecclesiastes 10:10 KJV)
“If the iron be blunt, and he do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct.”

January 9th

📝 There is no success in life that happens accidentally; most times, it is as a result of deliberate steps taken. Success happens when opportunity meets preparation. There are stories of receptionists, gatemen, office assistants, etc., who rose to managerial positions in organizations.

This only happened because when the opportunity came, they were prepared. Some of these people were studying further, taking courses, and learning new skills while working in those low positions. They deliberately positioned themselves for better offers in life because sometimes, it is not the absence of jobs that makes people jobless or broke but a lack of qualifications or skills.

Capacity building should be a top priority because going about your life with the same old skill and knowledge that brought you to this present point may not take you further. To change your experience or to get better results, therefore, you must go ahead and do something new or different.

Develop yourself, add to your knowledge base, take courses, learn something new, take up new challenges, and eliminate distractions and time wasters. All these will help to build your capacity and will automatically move you to higher levels.

Whatever your endeavor is, know that there is a higher place that you must prepare for. Go ahead and begin something new with the aim of expanding your capacity today. Glory tp God!

 

🙌🏾 PRAYER FOR THE DAY:

Dear Father, I receive grace to maintain a healthy diet in Jesus’ name.

 

PRAYER FOR MALI 🇲🇱

Background: Mali has 60% of its populace unreached with the Gospel. Islam is the largest religion. The Church is taking root, however, the number of Christians has not increased enough even to keep pace with Mali’s rapid population growth.

We are praying for boldness, passion, and a burden for the unsaved to awaken in the churches and for a new wave of evangelism such as that happened in the 1980s.

Prayer for Leaders/nation: We pray for the President of this nation that you would grant him grace to know how to unify the country.

 

PRAYER FOR ISRAEL
Father, I ask today that there will be peace in Jerusalem and that your purposes be established in that city. Amen (Psa. 122:6).

PRAYER FOR UNITY IN THE CHURCH
Father in the name of Jesus, we thank you for establishing the church in faith in Jesus’s name.

 

PRAYER FOR SOULS / REVIVAL
Father in the name of Jesus, we thank you for your will that no man should perish but that all should come to repentance.
