When you serve the Lord your God with absolute single – mindedness, with an absolute willing heart , with an absolute serving heart you will see Him move in every aspect of life. You need to worship Him with all you are and with all that you have and all that you own. God in Heaven is not a man to lie, He is not a man to forsake you.
Serving God with an absolute single- mindedness helps you to trust Him more than the bread you earn ! It helps you to focus more on Him – His word then your living is not dependent on the money you earn, its not dependent on the business you do.. Its all dependent on God. Living God dependent Life makes it all difference.
God dependent life gets you money you need, to eat the bread you want.
Why is God dependent Life so important ? – Because God dependent life = Word dependent life . So , the steady streams of words that proceeds from the mouth of God are the ones that will sustain you. Because the words that proceeded out of His mouth created everything that man needed in the garden of Eden. So, the words that proceed out of His mouth are the ones that create all the things of your life today . All that you need , all that you want, all that you desire are in the Words that He speaks.
How should you focus yourself on God?
• Have absolute single heartedness for Him. No diversion of any sort
• Let Him alone be your focus – not your Job, your business , not any of your money making avenues, not any of your bread earning avenues.
When you make Him the Source of your everything – you are uplifted, you are sustained . Now you become the responsibility of God Himself. No bread can satisfy a human soul, no riches can satisfy a human soul. Only God and His word can satisfy the soul of a human being. Why? – Because man is a spirit being created by the God who is a spirit. Only the Creator knows to satisfy His creation. Its becomes the responsibility of every one to always associate himself to His Creator . You need to always tune your spirit to His spirit by feeding on His word because you shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of His mouth. When you trust Him and keep your focus on Him – you fall under His care!!
Prayer 🙏🏻
