Seeds of Destiny, DUNAMIS CHURCH Daily Devotional by Pastor Dr. Paul Enenche
DATE: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 2024
TOPIC: YOUR BEHAVIOUR AND YOUR BECOMING
SCRIPTURE: PROVERBS 23:7 says:
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The way you behave affects what you become.
One day, a man came to see me and he said that someone wanted to assist him move over to the US.
Then I asked him, “In five years’ time, would you like it if that man stands anywhere and says, ‘I am the one that took you to America?’” He said no.
You see, there are some people, if they say, “I was the one who assisted you,” you may like it.
But if a ‘braggadocious’, ostentatious, ‘peakockish’ person, with character bankruptcy asks you to bring your passport, that he wants to assist you move to America, would you be able to cope with the way he would brag about how he helped you?
The young man said, “No”, then I said to him, “Alright think twice. Let God open the door for you! Let God do it for you.”
He then decided to allow God do it for him. Today, by divine connection, this young man has been to America, Canada, the UK, and other parts of the world many times.
Sometime ago, he told me, “Thank you so much for the counsel you gave to me. The question you asked me opened my eyes.”
So, the point is, let your actions be such that you are conscious of who you are.
You see, someone once told me to go and pick a car from Asokoro, a high profile district in Abuja, Nigeria. He said he had a car for me there. But I rejected it.
There may be a category of people you would say such a thing to, and they would run without hesitation to go pick up the car. But if someone carries the crown of priesthood on his head, respect that oil, especially if you think he is your pastor.
The point is, the way you behave affects what you become. If you cheapen your life; you are cheap in life. How much you offer yourself is how much people will buy you.
REMEMBER THIS: The way you behave affects what you become.
