INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Thursday, March 19, 2026 Topic: STEP UP YOUR GAME (Part 4)! Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he..." - Proverbs 23:7a KJV‬‬ Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭Proverbs 4:23 KJV‬‬ 23. Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life. INSPIRATION: Never in history of mankind was anyone born with class; you could be born into wealth but class is an acquired virtue. Sophistry is a learned behavior. If you must operate at a level far higher than you currently do, you must upgrade to that class structure. Learn the language of the palaces if you want to court the company of princes and princesses. You can't desire the life of a boardroom guru yet operate with the mindset and disposition of a janitor or clerical assistant. Step up in your learning. Bridge the knowledge gap. You may want to improve on your diction and general communication skills. Be very intentional while communicating your future. Dress the part you aspire to. I'm not suggesting you fake anything. A mediocre dressed in suit would betray his status by his aura. Do you have an executive presence that commands respect and public attention? What fragrance do you give off when people meet you? What impressions do you leave in them after you've long left? TODAY'S TAKE HOME: You don't have all the time to make history; you only have a moment! Make that crucial moment count!! Step up your game!!! PRAYER: Dear Lord, I receive grace to take practical steps at making the right improvement decisions about my life; I'm intentional about breaking into the right circles of people who would challenge me to do better for myself. I quit complaining; I quit unhealthy rivalry and strive for true excellence in all ramifications of my life, in Jesus name.
