TOPIC: UNLESS IT INCLUDES FAITH, IT’S NOT WORTHY OF BEING CALLED GODS DIRECTION.
TEXT: ECCL 9:11 I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
For many years safety first has been the motto of human race but it has never been the motto of leaders because a leader must face danger. He must take the risk and the blame and the brunt of the storms. If you want to be successful, you must either have a chance or take one because you can’t get your head above water if you never stick your neck out. The safest road soft underfoot, without sudden turnings without milestones, without sign post. Brethren, it is better to be a lion for a day than a sheep all your life. If you dare for nothing, you need hope for nothing and if you don’t risk anything you risk even more. Calculation never made a hero because every person has a chance to improve himself, but some just don’t believe in taking chances, being destined for greatness requires you to take risks and confront great hazards.
You will always miss 100% of the shots that you don’t take, when your chances are slim and none please go with slim. If you spend your whole life inside waiting for the storms, then you will never enjoy the sunshine because no one reaches the top without daring. A dream that does not include risk is not really worthy of being called a dream and the man who leaves nothing to chance will do few things badly, but he will do very few things if you will never take risks, you will never accomplish great things, everybody dies but not everyone has lived. Many people believed that you are really walking by faith when there is no risk but truth is that the longer you walk with God, the greater the risk and if you found yourself throughout life never scared, embarrassed, disappointed or hurt it means you have never taken any chances. God bless you.
