DO THIS and GET CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE!

Based on the news today it is becoming increasingly difficult for people to have a good life.  Even more than that people are actually having a hard time just having a good day.  Mastering a life seems like an impossible task up against the storms and set backs we all face in the world.  Trouble is everywhere.  Money trouble, job trouble, family trouble, terrorism and relationships are trouble... Mastering your life is what we all want to do, but how can that be done.

If you don't want to settle for just existing you must finish reading this today!  The key is in this short blog.  You must also share this with someone after you read it.  MY GOAL IS NOT to just attract readers but to attract feeders... Those who will feed and share this on social media and emails to get the word out.

HOW DO YOU GET CONTROL?
In order to master a life, you must forget that you are mastering a life.  You must instead master 1 day first.  You don't get to live one life at a time, you live one day at a time.  A person who sets lifetime goals but fails to put small steps on paper everyday will never accomplish anything.  You must master your life one day at a time.

IF IT ISN'T ON THE CALENDAR
DAILY, IT WILL NEVER BE IN THE FUTURE PERMANENTLY.
You have to take time on a regular basis to make a daily schedule that reflects your priorities and goals.  Jesus told His students to seek 1st the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all the things they were worried about would be added to them.  Proper scheduling means to make a priority list everyday for yourself and manage your time.  When you do that instead of just winging it everyday, the things you desire and need for your life will seemingly just add themselves to you.  Ask yourself, IF SOMEONE LOOKED AT MY SCHEDULE ON PAPER COULD THEY SEE WHERE I HAVE PLANNED MY DOMONANCE IN A CERTAIN AREA OR PLANNED TO REACH MY FUTURE.  If it isn't on the calender every day it will never be in your life later.

YOU WERE CREATED TO BE A MANAGER NOT NEED A MIRACLE
When God made you, he was in need of a manager.  Someone who could see what God was up too, and lead that mission to it's completion.  You were not created to wait on miracles to rescue you out of every mess your in.  Though God is a God who does miraculous things for people, that is not the original design for mankind.  Miracle living is painful, and it is not God's best for your life.  Since you were designed and equipped to manage, then you must SEEK WISDOM BECAUSE IT'S BY WISDOM THAT KINGS RULE AND HAVE CONTROL (Prov 8:15)

GOD TESTS YOU THROUGH MANAGMENT
Often times when you pray, you only get part of what you asked for.  Meaning, if you prayed to prosper God will say OK, and send you to the library to get WISDOM TO PROSPER.  You can't be upset that you didn't hit the lottery or say God didn't answer your prayer.  God gives you what you can manage and then your capacity must GROW to be given more.  Manage reading a book, and you can manage THE BOOKS FOR A PROSPEROUS COMPANY.  In Matt 25-14-30  Jesus tells the story that illustrates how Kings think before they give people huge RESPONSIBILITIES!  Manage little things well and God makes you RULER OR MANAGER OF MUCH!!

You were born to MANAGE GOD'S KINGDOM AND EXPAND IT TO REACH THE WORLD.  SO SEEK AND EQUIP YOURSELF TO BE A DISCIPLINED MANAGER IN EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE AND YOU WILL HAVE CONTROL OF THAT AREA OF YOUR LIFE NO MATTER WHAT IT IS.

Blessings in the name of our King Jesus!!
