PATTERN OF GOOD WORKS DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SAMUEL NASAM
THOUGH YOUR BEGINNING BE SMALL…
Job 8:7 And though you started with little, you will end with much. NLT
People have the tendency to despise little things. Even Jesus was despised, so don’t be afraid to be despised. The thing is, not everyone sees or knows what you carry.
For instance, just by looking at the mustard seed, you are most likely to despise it because of it’s size but that will be a huge mistake.
Every great building you see today started with one block. At the time they were digging the foundation, it would not make sense to you if you didn’t know exactly what kind of building they were raising.
Don’t despise people even if you don’t understand what they are about. You should just mind your business and be about making progress.
Now, let no man despise your days of small beginnings. Is it business? Is it ministry? Whatever it is, be on it until you see the growth you want to see.
Never let the views of others about you make you sick. There’s one thing you should despise in the process of growth, I will share a scripture with you and I believe you will catch it:
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Yes, despise the shame and have your eyes fixed on the joy (glory, reward or success). The process may be tough but endure, it is tough because you are coming out tough!
CONFESSION
God has blessed me and nothing can change that, I am a blessed man!
