RUN WITH PURPOSE
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: FRIDAY 5 MARCH 2021
It’s easy to get distracted by things that pull us off the track. There are so many things we get involved, they may look great, but in actual sense they are simply fantasizing and not necessary. There are too many talented people with great potentials, but they are not disciplined when it comes to fulfilling their purpose. They could spend hours on social media, catching up with gossips and wasting their life with friends that is pulling them down.
Our purpose in life is actually the real reason of our existence. And every day presents to us an opportunity to gear towards its accomplishment. Once any day is over, we can never get it back, and scripture says in Ephesians 5:15; “Make the most of every opportunity, don’t be vague and thoughtless but live purposefully and accurately,”.
SCRIPTURE: So, I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing, (1 Corinthians 9:26) NLT
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Every fulfilled potential in life is a product of decisive and purposeful living.
Beloved, if you’re going to reach your highest potential in life, you have to be an on-purpose person. You must be aware of who you are, know where you’re going. You’re not vague, you are not distracted, or merely living and waiting to see what happens next. No, you’re to be focused, making the most of every opportunity.
So, get rid of any distraction. Paul said in our anchor scripture, “I run with purpose in every step,” and when we understand the value of purpose and the need to stay focused and not evading nor shadowboxing, it helps us to keep the right perspective. You realize not every battle is worth fighting. And with all due respect, you don’t waste your valuable time on arguments that doesn’t matter, you don’t get involved in conflicts that are not between you and your God-given purpose. You just find your purpose and run with it. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Every fulfilled potential in life is a product of decisive and purposeful living.
RESPONSIBILITY: Ask God for the grace for capability to find your purpose and run with it.
PRAYER: O LORD, give me the grace to find my purpose in life and run with it, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and continue to pray)
PROPHETIC WORD: Receive the grace for capability to find your purpose in life and run with it, in the name of Jesus, Amen.
BIBLE TEXTS: 1 Cor. 9:26, Eph. 5:15
