Have you ever heard the phrase, “We are what we repeatedly do”? That’s not just a motivational quote; it’s a biblical principle. Our habits, whether good or bad, shape our character. The things we do consistently are what define us to others and often determine how we handle life’s challenges. But here’s the good news: God is committed to refining our character and restoring us to godliness.

“The astrologers answered the king, ‘There is no one on earth who can do what the king asks! No king, however great and mighty, has ever asked such a thing of any magician or enchanter or astrologer. What the king…

Being remembered is wonderful, but it doesn’t always lead to a breakthrough. Think about it: how often do people recall someone or something and choose not to act on that memory? I’ve remembered brands or services and decided to try someone new, not because the old ones were bad but simply for variety. Sometimes, the person remembering lacks the courage or opportunity to recommend. It’s one thing to be remembered, but it takes God’s favor for remembrance to result in a recommendation.

Have you ever done something good for someone, only for it to seem forgotten? You gave your time, your skills, or your resources, and hoped it would open a door, but nothing happened. It’s easy to feel overlooked, but Joseph’s story shows us that God’s timing is everything. The cupbearer forgot Joseph after his release, despite Joseph’s request to speak of him to Pharaoh. For two long years, Joseph remained in prison. But when the time was right, God stirred the cupbearer’s memory, and Joseph was brought from the dungeon to the palace in a single day.

Faith isn’t always a steady climb. It has its highs and lows, and the widow of Zarephath’s story paints a vivid picture of this truth. When we first met her, she was full of faith, trusting Elijah’s word from God and using her last meal to feed the prophet. God rewarded her faith by providing for her and her son. But in the face of grief—when her son died—her faith wavered. Suddenly, Elijah, whom she had once welcomed as a man of God, seemed more like a source of trouble than a blessing.

Have you ever felt like that? Perhaps you once believed wholeheartedly in God’s promises, but when tragedy struck, doubt crept in. It doesn’t mean you’ve lost your faith entirely. It simply reveals that you’re human, and sometimes life’s storms test the very foundation of our belief.

What if I told you that the only thing standing between you and a greater impact is your willingness to ask? In today’s world, where global influence is no longer limited by geography, it’s easier than ever to expand beyond your small corner. Whether it’s a product, a ministry, or a message, the potential to reach the nations is within your grasp. God’s promise in Psalm 2:8 is clear—He is ready to give you the nations as your inheritance, but you have to ask.

Think about the businesses that have grown from small shops to global brands or ministries that started in living rooms and now broadcast across continents. It didn’t happen by chance.

Have you ever wondered what sets some people apart, even in a crowd of highly skilled individuals? It’s more than talent, discipline, or education—it’s something deeper, something divine. Daniel had what the Bible calls an “excellent spirit.” It wasn’t just that he was knowledgeable or wise; it was the Spirit of God working through him that gave him a distinction no one else could replicate. This excellent spirit placed him before kings and gave him answers no one else had.

An excellent spirit doesn’t eliminate the need for hard work or skill. Look at Joseph and Daniel—they were not only Spirit-filled but also knowledgeable, wise, and prepared for their roles. However, the excellent spirit was their divine advantage.

Have you ever thought about what makes certain brands stand out? Take Coca-Cola, for instance. No matter where you buy it, the taste is consistent, even though the price or packaging might vary. That consistency builds trust and keeps people coming back. In the same way, diligence in our work—marked by consistent excellence—sets us apart. It’s not just about being good once; it’s about being dependable and constant in delivering quality, day after day.

“As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians, marching after them. They were terrified and cried out to the Lord.” – Exodus 14:10 (NIV) Imagine the scene: the Israelites had just tasted freedom for the first…

“And he said to his people, ‘Look, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we; come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they multiply, and it happen, in the event of war, that they…
