The Power of Consistency (Part 2)!

INSPIRE Devotionals With Emmanuel Afiawari Friday, April 10, 2026 Topic: THE POWER OF CONSISTENCY (Part 2)! Memory Verse: ‭‭"‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good" - Ecclesiastes 11:6 KJV‬ Bible Text: ‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭‭ ‭2 Kings 13:18 NIV‬ 18. Then he said, “Take the arrows,” and the king took them. Elisha told him, “Strike the ground.” He struck it three times and stopped. INSPIRATION: Talking about consistency, Paul has this to say, "‭Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up" (Gal. 6:9). In other words, harvest awaits you if you do not give up. One reason many give up too soon is that they seek a quick harvest and care less about its timing. Process is a factor with God and if you short-circuit the processes, you're sure to miss out on the desired outcome. Most people have lost out of their prayed up expectations because they lacked the will to be consistent. Impatience is not a godly virtue, and no amount of justification can turn it into a virtue. So, you'd do well to shun all forms cynicism, negative remarks and all unsavoury comments that discourage you from your cause. Strike your sword as many times as possible because what's at stake is mightier than your immediate understanding. Keep sowing and never stop investing in your goals. TODAY'S TAKE HOME: ‭‭Do not just be consistent with what you do, be twice as creative in your imagination as you are with consistency. PRAYER: Dear Lord, please help me to be creatively consistent with what I do; give me the grace to be resilient while setting my mind on the goal. Help me to follow the example of endurance, despising shame, so I can win the crown in all of my endeavours, in Jesus name.
