Seeds of Destiny – 4th August 2025: Changing Levels by Action

TOPIC: Changing Levels by Action.

SCRIPTURE: And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us. Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye. 2 KINGS 6:1-2

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The journey of success begins with our dissatisfaction with failure.

I once heard a story of a young man who was looking for a job. He got out of his home one morning and went to an organization in search of a job. When he got there, he told them that he was looking for a job, and they told him that they were looking for people with the requisite job experience. The young man told them something very interesting. He said, “Can I work for your organization free of charge for six months, then I can gain the required experience? After six months, you can interview me again and see if I am employable or not.”

When they saw his passion and tenacity, they employed him. That is, he got so tired of unemployment that he became desperate enough to get what he wanted.

Beloved, the journey of success begins with our dissatisfaction with failure. When you come to a point where you get dissatisfied with failure, then you are set to begin the journey of success. When a person comes to a point where he becomes dissatisfied with affliction, then his deliverance is about to happen. If you are okay with where you are, you don’t move from there.

Our anchor scripture tells us a story about the sons of the prophets or prophets in training. They found themselves in a situation of smallness, littleness and confinement, so they decided to get out of that situation. And so, they made a move forward towards enlargement and encountered a challenge. But fortunately for them, the prophet Elisha was with them, so the challenge was overcome.

Beloved, the move you make is what confirms your dissatisfaction with your situation. It is not a matter of what you think, say or feel about the fact that you don’t like where you are; the question is, what moves have you made? It is confirmed that you still like where you are until you make desperate moves to leave there. It is the moves you make, the steps you take, that confirm that you don’t like where you are. If you are really dissatisfied with failure, you will make aggressive moves and take risky steps until you attain success.

Beloved, the move you make is the confirmation of your dissatisfaction with your situation. It is when you begin to make moves that you create waves that will bring changes.

Remember this: The journey of success begins with our dissatisfaction with failure.
