May the peace and grace from the Lord Jesus Christ be multiplied unto you today!
Today I want to talk to you about the need to analyze your work and your days. I would like you to see God Himself doing it when He was creating heaven and earth; we can read about it in the first book of the Bible – Genesis.God analyzed and assessed His work before making the next step in His plan. It is a very important principle: periodically we need to stop and look at the things we are doing. It is important to analyze what we have: Is it what we expected? Is it what we wanted? Is it good enough or we need to work more to make improvements? In Genesis we see God doing it again and again.
«And God saw the light, that is was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day» (Genesis, 1: 4, 5).
«And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God say that it was good» (Genesis, 1: 10).
«And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that is was good» (Genesis, 1:12).
«God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good» (Genesis, 1:17-18).
Quite frequently God assessed what He had done. The Bible says: «And God saw that it was good».Other translation says: «And God saw that it was attractive, appropriate and He approved of it». The creation matched with God’s original design, so it was good.
If we don’t learn to stop like God did to analyze what we are doing and where we are going, then we might end up in a totally different place, not at the intended destination, and we might get something we did not plan to get. It is so easy to get distracted, to get involved into all kinds of entertainment and futile things; that is why we need to stop once in a while to check and analyze what is happening in our lives, whether it is good or bad, should it be changed or not, is the direction of our lives right and good.
Let’s assume that in the beginning of the year you had a plan, a desire or a particular dream and you enthusiastically began carrying this plan out. But six month have gone by and you must stop and ask yourself: «Am I where I wanted to be or not?»
If we do that daily like God did, we will be able to avoid wasting of time and resources and avoid making fundamental mistakes.
I believe this insight will help you. Stop today and think: “Where is my life going? What have I accomplished?”
May God give you wisdom and speak to you so that you could assess your life and change things that need correction.Be blessed!
Till tomorrow!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye
