We all desire to echo Paul’s words:
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” -2 Timothy 4:7
But what does this look like in our daily lives? Finishing well means aligning with God’s will, seeking His Kingdom first and stepping into the assignments He’s given us according to our unique gifts and callings.
As Jesus said, “’But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you’” (Matthew 6:33). A 24/7 Kingdom-seeker embraces this truth, fighting against self-interest and embracing the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20), while seeking to reconcile all to Christ (2 Corinthians 5:18-19) as part of living a godly life.
What’s your Kingdom assignment?
God’s purposes, ways and thoughts are always higher.
God’s plans are always higher than ours.
“’For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
and your ways are not my ways.’
This is the Lord’s declaration.
‘For as heaven is higher than earth,
so my ways are higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts.’” - Isaiah 55:8-9
