DAILY MEDITATION

And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening. And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even? And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God: When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws. And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good. Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone. Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God: And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens: And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee. If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

Exodus 18:13-23

Strategic Planning requires a framework that is intentional toward building out a well-lived and joy filled life as promised. God has already done what He has declared for your life; it is available to you and I and we must be intentional about receiving and living in our promise of life and life more abundantly. It was because of sin, which separates us from what God has declared and prepared for our lives, that stands in our way of living in our promise. It is not the devil, darkness, people, places, or things but instead sin, a problem that we have allowed to exist in our lives and take prominence over our promise. State the problem and begin the work of discovering and studying the necessary options available to you to resolve the problem. There is no temptation, sin that has seized you except that which is common to man, God is faithful He would not allow you to be tempted above that which you are able but will with the temptation provide a way of escape that you can stand up under it. God has the solution to your problem, you must make the decision to diligently seek it and execute in your life, step into your solution, and way of escape directly to your promise. Occupy Your Promise today by stating your problem and consider your options and then step into, execute, your solution and live, it is ordered, commanded by God!
