The story of the King who when
travelling gave talents to his servants, is a typical example of how people
miss getting to their “there”. Especially when they refuse to work with
instructions and give accountability. Three servants out of the many were chosen
for this purpose. Remember they were chosen out of the benevolence of the King.
It was an opportunity for them be freed from servitude forever. (Copy and tweet).
We understand no King or leader will choose people for a
task without first training them. (Copy and tweet).
Two of the servants saw themselves as people who were free and took the
opportunity with both hands. They worked with everything they were given and profitted
from it. The other failed to put into practise the instruction and failed bitterly.
When the King came back, he demanded accountability which
only two servants successfully did. They had obeyed the instructions, rendered
their accounts with excellence whilst the unprofitable servant did the exact
opposite. It was from the King’s final judgement that we know they were even
taught how to give their money to the bankers for profit. His lack of a satisfying accountability
brought a harsh judgement of the King on him. He was subsequently sentenced to
eternal pain and poverty.
Know that of a surety, a person’s ability to work with
instructions determines how their results will be. (Copy and tweet). It also typifies a person’s
preparedness to achieve success. Anyone who excelled or is excelling is a
person given to instructions and accountability. Until you read the instruction
on the manual of your life, I am afraid you won’t achieve as much as you
thought. (Copy and tweet). You won’t be able to honestly account for every
gift God has given you and fail to be significant as you desire. By now am sure
you must have a clear idea of how your “there” will look like as your every
effort will never go unrewarded. (Copy and tweet).
I recently visited a very prominent individual and the most
thought on my mind which I subsequently asked was how does it feel when one
gets to their “there”? I was expecting him to tell me about the everyday
strategies and the dos and don’ts but the answers I received were quite
different; dreams beget dreams I was told, and that it’s very rewarding. (Copy
and tweet).
