This morning I woke early with things heavy on my mind, with the world in a state of chaos, my present situation in a state of unorganized realities... opportunities hitting me from all angels but finances are not where they are supposed to be. I allow so many to be before me that I have been unprepared when time is upon me for opportunity. Listen in the Bible there is a story of ten hand maidens who had oil lamps, 5 were prepared and followed directions, and five were unprepared. That is found in Matthew 25:1-13. This is where the kingdom of heaven is described to be like 10 handmaidens, they took their lamps to meet the bridegroom. Five were foolish and five were wise.
The foolish had no oil in their lamps, the bridegroom was delayed and when he was delayed the foolish fell asleep. At midnight the bridegroom was coming, the foolish went to the wise and asked them to share their oil but the wise told the foolish to go get their own. When the foolish returned and asked the Lord to open up, He answered, "Truly, I say to you, I do not know you". We don't know the day or the hour when the son of God will return.
What am I saying???? Get right, get your things in order, do not share everything God is doing with you life with everyone, because they will find away to swindle things from you that were designed just for you... only share with the ones that God has instructed you to share ....they are the ones who will have your back....be intentional today.... be purposeful today is my prayer...
