THE MAIN THEME: ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH

TITLE: OVERCOMING PROCRASTINATION

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Proverbs 6:6 (NIV)
 "Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!!" – 

Devotional:
 Imagine a student named Tunde with a big assignment due in two weeks. Instead of starting early, he said, “I’ll do it tomorrow.” Soon, tomorrow became the night before the deadline, and he rushed through the work, stressed and exhausted. Sound familiar? This is the cycle of procrastination— the habit of delaying essential tasks until the last minute.

Many people procrastinate because they feel overwhelmed, distracted, or simply unmotivated. However, successful individuals understand the importance of taking action. Take Thomas Edison, for example. If he had procrastinated, we might not have the electric light bulb today! He knew that consistent effort leads to success, even in small steps.

The key to overcoming procrastination is discipline. Start by breaking large tasks into smaller, manageable steps. Set clear deadlines for yourself and remove distractions. Most importantly, ask God for wisdom and strength to stay focused. Remember, procrastination steals your time and potential. When you take action now, you set yourself up for success in the future.

Procrastination may feel easy at the moment, but it steals your progress. Take that first step today, no matter how small. Your future self will thank you!

Here are a few reflective questions:

1. What is one task I often procrastinate on, and why?
2. How do I feel when I rush to complete something at the last minute?
3. What small steps can I take today to become more disciplined?
4. How can trusting God help me to overcome procrastination?

Let us pray:
 "Dear Lord, help me overcome the habit of procrastination. Give me the wisdom to plan my time wisely and the discipline to take action. May I use my days purposefully and honour You with my work. Amen."

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them, and live them:

• I take action today and refuse to delay my success.
• I am disciplined, focused, and motivated.
• Every small step I take brings me closer to my goals.
• I use my time wisely and fulfil my purpose with excellence.

 Have a productive and fulfilling day. See you tomorrow!

THE MAIN THEME: ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH 

TITLE: KNOWLEDGE OF SELF IN PERSONAL GROWTH

The quotes for today’s devotional are: "The more you know yourself, the more clarity there is. Self-knowledge has no end. You don’t come to an end of knowing yourself." 

— Jiddu Krishnamurti

"To thine own self be true." — William Shakespeare

Devotional 

It is easy to get lost in comparisons or let others define who we are, but true growth happens when we understand our identity in Christ. When you know your strengths, weaknesses, desires, and values, you are able to make decisions that align with God’s purpose for your life.

Self-knowledge isn't about becoming self-centered but about understanding how God uniquely shaped you. By embracing who you are and whose you are, you’ll grow into the person God created you to be.

Here are a few reflective questions:

1. What areas of my life do I struggle to accept or understand about myself?
2. How can knowing my strengths and weaknesses help me grow closer to God’s purpose for me?
3. What are some steps I can take today to understand myself better?
4. How can I embrace my true self while still being open to growth and change?

Let us Pray:

"Lord, help me to know myself better so I can grow in the way You’ve designed me. Help me to embrace my true identity in You and guide me in living a life that reflects Your purpose for me. Amen.”

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

1. I am fearfully and wonderfully made by God.
2. I embrace my unique strengths and talents as part of God’s plan for me.
3. My worth is not defined by others, but by the One who created me.

Have a wonderful day and see you tomorrow.

THE MAIN THEME: ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH 

TITLE: HAVE YOU GOT THE SKILLS FOR PERSONAL GROWTH

 The bible verse for today is: Proverbs 22:29 (NIV)

Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings." 

Devotional:

Daniel in the Bible had so distinguished himself that he could not be ignored. In fact, Daniel stood out so much that he served many kings and was highly sought after.  He grew not just in his relationship with God, but he committed to learning what was needed to excel at his daily task.

Depending on the area where we are committed to growing, we need to develop the skills required. For example, if we recognize a gap in our spiritual life and we intend to grow in that aspect, we will need to know what skills will help us develop that aspect of our lives and what to do to master that skill. In the same way, if the area of interest is academic, do we have the skill needed to improve our study patterns? The good thing is that we are in an era where it is easy to seek out and acquire skills that are needed to give us a boost as we embark on our life’s journey.

Our task today is simple, and it will serve as reflective questions for today:

- In what areas of life am I committing to personal growth?

- What are the skills needed to grow in this/these area(s)?

- What are some of the ways I can acquire these skills and what can I do today to get them?

Let Us Pray:

Dear God, I thank you for the abundance of opportunity all around me to acquire the skills I need for my journey. I am grateful that all I need has already been provided.

Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:

• I recognize what I need for my next level
• I am committed to refining my skills to become the best version of myself.

Have a great day. Take good care of yourself. I’ll see you tomorrow.

THE MAIN THEME:  ACHIEVING PERSONAL GROWTH

TITLE: FROM EXCUSES TO RESULTS

The bible verse for today’s devotional is: Phil 4:13 (NIV)

“I can do all this through him who gives me strength”

DEVOTIONAL

In life, we often find ourselves making excuses for our failures or shortcomings.  We blame our circumstances, our past experiences, or other people for our lack of success. However, if we want to achieve our goals and live a fulfilling life, we need to let go of our excuses and take responsibility for our actions. Pro 22:13 The slothful man saith; There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.

The first step in moving from excuses to results is to become aware of the excuses we make.  Once we become aware of them, we can start to challenge them. Are our excuses really valid? Are they helping us to achieve our goals? If not, it is time to let them go.

Once we have let go of our excuses, we can start to focus on taking action. It is important to set realistic goals and to break them down into smaller, more manageable steps.

Our text for today is a reminder that we are self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; we should be ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses us with inner strength ad confident peace

As we take actions, we will inevitably encounter obstacles and setbacks.  However instead of making excuses, we should view these challenges as opportunities for growth. What can we learn from mistakes? How can we improve our approach?

By letting go of our excuses, taking action, and learning from our mistakes we can move from a place of stagnation to a place of progress. We can achieve our goals and create the life we want to live. Pro 22:29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.

Here are a few reflective questions;

1. What are my limiting beliefs, and how can I challenge them?
2. What skills do I need to develop to advance in my career, and personal growth?

Let us Pray:

Thank you, Lord, for your word to me today. I can do all things through your son who empowers me to fulfil His purpose here on earth.  I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency in Jesus’s name Amen

Please say these words of affirmation after me.  Say them, mean them, own them and live them

• I am creating successful and fulfilling career and relationships
• I am working towards my dream and I finish what I start
• I am surrounded by loving and supportive people.

Enjoy your day, while I see you, tomorrow.
