Matthew 6:33 KJV
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. –
• DAILY READING 1 John 2; 2 Chronicles 35; Psalm 89:38-52
You can set a piece of paper ablaze without lighting a fire. This can be achieved through the effect of the sun and a magnifying glass on paper. When the magnifying glass is used to direct the sun’s rays onto one particular area, the light rays act like a laser and soon the paper catches fire. When you focus the sun’s light through a magnifying glass, it can set even grasses ablaze.
The sun’s light hasn’t changed, nor has the ability of the magnifying glass. But what has changed is the way in which the magnifying glass is used to reflect and focus the light. If you focus light even more, it can become a laser beam, that can cut through steel, or concrete and can even destroy cancer. That is the power and effectiveness of focus.
To progress in life we need to focus our mind on what matters. When you have focus you gain power to create amazing impact. God designed us to attract whatever we think about. Indeed as a man thinks in his heart so is he.
What we focus on is eventually what we attract into our lives.
Our destiny is consistently shaped by our thoughts.. The ability for greatness and the capability for work has it’s root in your Focus. Indeed to progress in life we need to deliberately take charge of our thoughts and focus them on the direction we desire to go. The sun’s rays do not burn until brought to a focus. Focus is the magnetic force that retains vision. Focus keeps life on the Track.
The truth is that man is often distracted. In his mind an inner dialogue is going on all the time. Human beings think between 50,000 to 70,000 thoughts a day. These are mostly mental chatter;, images like movies playing in the head. 95% of these thoughts are repetitive of previous days and 80% of these habitual thoughts are negative.
Our most important focus should be on God’s Word. The real influencer and game changer in a man’s life is the word of God.
Keep filling your heart continually with the Word, until your actions are dominated and controlled by what God says. Maintaining focus on God’s Word is what turns you to a focus among men. Focus on God’s Word brings divine healing, health, prosperity, favor and many other blessings into our lives.
Indeed when you seek the Kingdom of God first, then every other thing will be added unto you.
PRAYER: Lord, please help me to seek Your kingdom first, by focusing on Your Word. Indeed by the power in Your Word my life is being transformed from glory to glory in Jesus Name.
