John Huyler grew up living with his parents and siblings in an apartment over his father’s shop. His father, David Huyler, operated a bakery in their village.
At 17 years of age, John desired financial independence and so took up a job at his father’s shop. Having learned the ropes, he ventured out on his own and founded Huyler’s chocolate and opened his first store in 1874.
In the beginning of his business, he took the pledge to tithe and sow regularly into God’s kingdom. Believing God to be his senior partner in business, he went to the bank and opened a special account where he faithfully deposited a certain amount of his income towards the work of God’s kingdom. Hurley also made contributions to the needy, which was always accompanied with the request that each recipient should offer praise to God alone, for he said, “After all, the money isn’t mine; it’s the Lord’s!”
The more he sowed into God’s kingdom, the more he prospered and his business grew at a phenomenal rate. Within a few short number of years, Hurley’s became the largest and most prominent chocolate maker in the United States. Huyler’s became synonymous with quality which attracted chocolatiers and candy makers from around the world to study his methods. While his rapid growth amazed his business associates, John S. Huyler’s success secret remained his dedication to God and giving to God’s kingdom.
At the time of his death on October 1, 1910, Huyler had 54 stores across America, supplied by 14 candy factories employing about 2,000 people.
Speedy progress and breaking forth is guaranteed when we make the promotion of God’s Kingdom our priority. Our degree of commitment in seeking God first will determines our ultimate height in life. Seeking God first is the master key to open doors and unlimited breakthroughs. What follows you is determined by who you follow. And when you run after God, good things will run after you. When you seek God first, you will never end up last in life’s race.
Truly, you can’t stand for God and not stand out on earth. How dedicated you are in serving God, determines how distinguished you will become. As we connect to active Kingdom service, God will surely prosper us exceedingly. Indeed as we make it a top priority to serve God with our time, talent and resources, He will change our story for good and bless us beyond every expectation.
What we reap in life will always depend on how we sow. God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. When we obey and serve God, He ensures we spend our days in prosperity, and our years in pleasures(Job 36:16). God delights in prospering those that favour His cause and focus on the building of His House. In Haggai 1:4-11 God shut the heavens over the people because they had been unmindful of His house, while focusing rather on building their personal houses.
However, when the people repented of their neglect of God’s House and began to build it, God once again opened the Heavens over them. Destiny is essentially a race of responsibilities, and the utmost responsibility for us is to seek God and the promotion of His house or kingdom above all else. As we do this, certainly, every other thing shall be added unto us.
PRAYER: Lord please, grant me the grace to make the promotion of Your kingdom the top priority in my life. As I seek You diligently, I thank You Lord, for opening the Heavens over me and showering me with multiplied blessings in Jesus Name..
