24/7 DOXA Content, 29th August-LEARNING TO BE SELF-RESPONSIBLE

FRUITFUL greetings Cherished one. We’ve learned that becoming poor or rich largely depends on you. Your understanding, mindset, lifestyle, decisions and choices, the principles you apply all come to play. The second part of our focal text says to the lazy fellow to consider or take a lesson from the ant, learn her ways and be wise. Why would the writer tell the lazy folk to learn from the ant and not another human being. This is because the lazy person refuses to take a lesson from all the hard working people around him, family, community or nation.

Perhaps the poor lazy person would be opened minded to consider the behaviour that’s in embedded in nature or creation (ant). To consider or learn means to study, think about carefully or ponder. One of the ways of the ant is, it doesn’t wait for an official boss or commander to show its responsibilities. It’s opened minded to responsibilities and take the necessary steps to fulfil them in hard work. Since it has no official commander or supervisor, it takes self-discipline from self and consider the seasons and time of nature to be responsible on time. (vss7,8)

The ant is self-responsible for the provision of its food in the summer and stockpile it during harvest. Beloved, learn the lesson of building up self-discipline and taking up responsibilities for your self. If you always wait or depend on others responsibilities, you won’t be able to get out of poverty. Master the art of working to cater for your needs and avoid a beggarly and over-dependent lifestyle. You are destined to be wealthy; Yes, it is in your bloodline as a child of God. Rise up, learn to be self-discipline and take up self responsibilities and the blessings of God would manifest in all your endeavours. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always. Amen !
