“The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied” Proverbs 13:4
God
longs to pour out His favor and blessing on you.
He has rewards,
victory and promotion for you, but these things don’t happen
automatically.
You have to do your part. You have to be diligent.
First
of all, you have to be diligent to seek His ways and follow His
commands.
Then you also have to be diligent with what you have in your
hand — your time, abilities and resources.
In Matthew, Jesus tells a
parable about three men whose employer entrusted them with some money.
Two of the men were diligent and invested the money and received a great
return. The third man was afraid and buried what he was given. The
first two men were rewarded and praised for their diligence while the
third man was basically fired.
Today,
follow the example of the first two men and look for ways to be
diligent with what you have in your hand. Whatever you do, do it with
excellence! Be the best you can be. Go the extra mile even when you
think it goes unnoticed because God notices and promises to richly
supply the soul of the diligent!

God's power sometime cannot work through because of our sin. or lack of faith or not follow His ways or not follow His commands
God refelct me I have to set 1st thing to please God as my priority instead of pleasing people including my parents or the friends I cherish with .....
Reading God's words easily bring me into God's presense and meditate His words helps me to let Holy Spirit reflect anything in my old life to be changed for my good
