DON’T THINK OF THE EXCUSE YOU WILL GIVE IF YOU FAIL (Friday, 8th May 2026)
Text for Today: 1 Cor. 2:1-9 “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him”. (vs. 9).
Everyone who succeeds in a given task had reasons to quit at some point but chose not to. The ones who find happiness are the ones who don’t make excuses. If it’s broken, they fix it, and if it is wrong, they make it right. You can make moves towards your goals, or you can make excuses, but you can’t do both. When it comes to carrying out your responsibilities, never make excuses, because your friends don’t need them and your foes won’t believe them. You must learn to lead with actions and not just lips. The journey of this year is already into the fifth month, and before you know it, we will step into the second half of the year.
Whatever you leave undone today may complicate or compound your assignment for tomorrow. Many people are fond of making excuses as to why they are doing nothing today. Instead of making a lot of excuses, make a little progress. Instead of looking back with regret, step forward with enthusiasm. Choose to view your life based on the best of what is possible. Choose to define yourself based on the person you know you are capable of becoming. If you believe it, you can do it. All the negativity from the past can be erased in the moment with a single positive action. Go ahead and make it happen. The best way to disconnect from a troubled past is to trust and connect with possibilities of the present moment. When you embrace the power of now, the future belongs to you. Beloved, I like you to know that nothing can stop you if you don’t stop yourself. Be wise!
You are a Champion!
Further Study: Jos. 3:5-17.
