PURPOSE CREATES MOMENTUM!
PURPOSE creates MOMENTUM!
You cannot win in life without a purpose. To win in life, you must know your purpose and act upon it and live it out courageously. Not knowing your purpose puts you in a disadvantaged position—potentially defeat and failure. Knowing and living out your purpose is the key toward your destiny or desired outcomes in life. Knowing your purpose means you are in charge where to go. Knowing your purpose means winning your future today. Knowing your purpose means seizing your tomorrow today. Remember, your future is shaped by your today. You landscape your future today. What you do today affects your tomorrow. Your future is the product of today’s choices and decisions, which in turn clarifies your focus of priorities. What you plant today, you will one day enjoy a harvest of its fruit. Your today is connected to your tomorrow. For me, I call this a forward momentum. Purpose creates momentum!

TO WIN IN LIFE YOU MUST SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE SWIM LIKE A SALMON!
Soar like an Eagle Swim Like a Salmon!
One thing you can learn from eagles is rising above the storms that comes in your life. Somehow, eagles seem to have internal radar to detect an approaching storm before it arrives. When the storm comes, eagles spread their wings so the wind lifts them above the storm. They are not afraid of the storm. Eagles know how to break through it. The way eagles overcome the storm is they simply use the storm to soar above it. They spread their wings to allow the wind to lift them into higher heights. They allow the wind to carry them above the storm. They did not escape or run away from the storm; instead they rise above it. So while the storm is raging below, the eagle keeps navigating and rising above.As a child of God, you’re designed to soar over the storms of life. The way to soar over your storm is to wait upon the Lord in prayer and feed and renew your mind with His Word.
“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” (Isa. 40:31 KJV, emphasis mine)
You’re not an eagle. You don’t have wings, but you have the most sophisticated gift called mind. Set your mind on God, focus your heart and faith to the God of the universe, who has the power over the storm and the power to preserve and protect you from the various storms of life that come your way. It is in waiting in God’s presence that one is refreshed and rejuvenated spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. When you do this, you position yourself to rise above your storms. Eagles hibernate, but they soar on heights.
God sees you like an eagle. When you wait upon Him in prayer, He is willing to equip you with His strength and wisdom so you can soar into heights and rise above the storms within you and the storms outside of your life.
Salmon swim upstream. They swim upstream against the current of the water. They also have the ability to jump as high as twelve feet over waterfalls. They know how to overcome hindrances before them to reach their destiny. They swim and jump over the tide and current. They are determined to win the salmon run, determined to reach the place where they were hatched in order to die. In the process of going upstream, many of them die, but they die moving forward toward their desired destiny.

THE MOTIVATION OF GREED!
Fire Can Never be Satisfied so as Greed
“Then
the Lord said to him, “You Pharisees are so careful to clean the outside of the
cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy—full of greed and
wickedness!” (Luke 11:39 NLT, emphasis mine).
Miriam Webster Dictionary defines greed
“a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (such as money) than is
needed.” From a Christian
perspective, the core definition of greed is the obsession with accumulating
material goods.[1] This means a greedy person
values material things more than God or people. Their heart is deeply consumed
with a want for more. The motivation of greed is to acquire more things regardless
of cost.
Greed is like a wildfire that burns forest. One characteristic
of fire is it burns whatever touches it. The more the fire is fed the more it consumes
Fire can never be satisfied so as greed. A greedy person will
do all kinds of pretense deception to get more and accumulate more regardless of its damaging
outcomes to other people.
Biblical commentator John Ritenbaugh describes it as a “ruthless
self-seeking, and an arrogant assumption that others and things exist for one’s
own benefit.” This word is also found in the writing of both Plato and
Aristotle, and is strictly defined as “the insatiable desire to have what
rightfully belongs to others.”[2]
New Testament Greek
scholar William Barclay describes pleonexia as an “accursed love of having,”
which “will pursue its own interests with complete disregard for the rights of
others, and even for the considerations of common humanity.” He labels it an
aggressive vice that operates in three spheres of life:[3]
· In
the material sphere it involves “grasping at money and goods, regardless of
honor and honesty.”
· In
the ethical sphere it is “the ambition which tramples on others to gain
something which is not properly meant for it.”
· In
the moral sphere, it is “the unbridled lust which takes its pleasure where it
has no right to take.”
Hugh Whelchel, Executive Director of the
Institute for Faith, Work & Economics and author of How Then
Should We Work?: Rediscovering the Biblical Doctrine of Work argues that,
“There is an important thread that runs through these biblical definitions that
is strongly missing from the
typical definitions of greed. It is the idea that greed fosters the
taking of something that is not rightfully ours.”
