Seeds Of Destiny 04 JANUARY 2021: GREAT EXPLOITS THROUGH EXCELLENCE

God is ready to make you a person of excellence and distinction in your generation. God wants to distinguish your life in your generation.

SCRIPTURE: Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Daniel 6:3.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Daniel was a man of great exploits because he embraced the lifestyle of excellence.

Previously, we saw that Our God is in search of people of excellence who would display His character of excellence to the world (Matthew 5:14-16). We also saw that God found Daniel as a person of excellence, and Daniel distinguished himself in his generation.

Beloved, through the vehicle of excellence, God lifted Daniel to a realm of relevance in both the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of men (Daniel 5:11-31). Through excellence, Daniel became a man of perpetual relevance who outlived four kings(Daniel 1:21, Daniel 6:28). Daniel made great impact; he changed the law of the land and made the king and the entire Babylonian Empire to recognize the living God (Daniel 6:25-27).

The angels of God shut up the mouths of the lions; God did not allow the enemies of Daniel to prevail over him even when they threw him into the lion’s den(Daniel 6:21-24).

Daniel was a man of great exploits because he embraced the lifestyle of excellence. Excellence is a key to great exploits in life. God is ready to make you a person of excellence and distinction in your generation. God wants to distinguish your life in your generation.

My counsel is, embrace the lifestyle of excellence and distinction. Refuse to be a nonentity; have nothing to do with mediocrity.

Remember this: Daniel was a man of great exploits because he embraced the lifestyle of excellence.
