Proverbs 16
Have a well-thought-out plan for everything and anything that concerns your life and impacts those you lead and care for. But remember this while you plan, the one who will ensure your plans pull through is God Almighty.
Therefore, involve God before planning and commit all your plans to him, so He can show you what to do and how to get it done.
§ It isn’t what we do outwardly that really counts in the eyes of God, what counts most are the motives and intentions of our heart.
§ When we have reverence for God, we will be bold to run away from sin.
§ Jesus the fountain of mercy and the supreme truth, purged us clean of all our sin.
§ In this life, there will be those who will oppose all we say, beef us for no reason, hate the life we live and rally people against us. These are realities that cannot be avoided. But one thing is for sure, eventually God will make them be at peace with us, as long as we keep pleasing Him in all our ways.
§ There’s a high expectation set for leaders when they speak. Their speech should command and earn respect but more importantly their lips should speak justice for those who truly deserve justice and not deceits and lies.
§ Leadership is a privilege to serve people and take them to a new level. It is not a right or an entitlement to do what pleases one. The righteousness of God should be the motivation of every leader privileged to lead.
§ Anyone favored by a leader will go far. Ask Queen Esther.
§ Honor for a leader brings you into the cloud of favor. Esteem and appreciate, leaders; those who labor over you and sow their lives daily to see that you are taken good care of and comfortable.
§ Wisdom brings you into the place of wealth, not the other way round.
§ Pride can make a person lose a great opportunity, miss a destiny-helper, lose a spouse-to-be, miss a great job offer……… Pride wrecks destinies, so humble thyself.
§ Let your words be gracious and backed by love to the hearers.
§ Whatever drives you will keep you going. Jesus was driven by love that’s why He stayed through till he gave His last breath on the cross.
§ Unfolding someone’s past life who has genuinely repented, just to make a mockery of that person is truly ungodly. That’s what satan does; making accusations against Christ’s blood-bought church daily.
§ Beware of those who sow evil seeds of strife and division. They do not understand the way of peace and unity.
Age doesn’t always qualify one to be wise. But if the one whose hair is grey and has walked and lived by the righteousness of God in their youth and still does, such person is wise and carries a crown of glory.
In the end, only the purpose and plan of God will stand.
