Psalms 23:1-3
This is a Scripture for the workerholics. You have been working so hard, but you cannot get ahead.
The key for you to get ahead is not work, it is rest. Rest is where your faith is. If you could do it by working 80 hours a week then you are slowly killing yourself and opening doors for illnesses that will eventually get other people raise your children. Tat is not God’s will for us.
God says do your work then go home and raise your children, love on your spouse and build your family. Because working yourself to death is not honouring God.
Oh....I work 90 hours a week, I cannot even move am so tired. Te end result you will die early. The devil is a liar!
Balance - Live your life, go for a holiday, barbecue for your children etc....
You have to battle for balance, or God will make you lie down in green pastures (Psalms 23 : 2)
All men and women of God should avoid seeking validation at the cost of them not being relevant in their homes.
So what is this in you as a servant of God that needs to be applauded that does not matter?
The Answer is Keeping it Real!......you cannot run yourself to the ground and think it is God. If one was to die at an early age as a servant of God because of such tight schedules and being so busy...then their children would end up resenting God because they would say if it was not for serving you then our parent would not have died and that same God could not keep them.
This is what the devil wants to make people run around making them think it is God but it is not.
God says...I did not assign you to that, you did that because you were not listening!!
All that running around, physical breakdown No! we need to prioritize things in our life.
Second from God, if you have a family that is a priority, your health should be a priority before you consider assignments outside that at times heavily costs one.
Make Sure You Surround Yourself With Hitters.
David was getting ready to kill himself by going into battle, but he had some hitters that said NO. David, we love you so you get behind us, we are going to take charge of things from here.
Every now and then you need some hitters like Peter. What did you say? say it again.. because if you train them right they will end up having the same anointing as you, they will have a heart like yours and they will have their own weapons.
This is the season where God is about to mature you so that you can use your weapons to break down the camp of the enemy.
