Choices and Raising kings~means raising yourself first.

 
Just because people hear does mean they heard it or they will do it. 

If you are striving to get better, then you are always growing. And if you are always growing, then you are not comfortable.
 
To be the best, you have to be willing to be uncomfortable, and embrace it as a part of your growth process.
 
The best can see where there is room for improvement and their humility and passion drives them to improve.
 
The average ones however, don't see it or don't want to see it. 

​Even more disheartening for me is to study and share the Word of God, know people hear the Word, but do nothing with it. It is takes longer than they think it should, so they give up and return to their old ways. They refuse to act on the Word and wait for the promises of God.

It is in the application of the word that we are successful and become who God intended us to be. Hearing alone is not enough. I encourage you to go back and read the notes you took. Meditate and study what you wrote. Memorize the scripture and what God spoke to you, then and only then will you be able to apply it and application will change your life.

I fear the Lord. I believe that if He tells me something, I am a steward of that something. I must multiply it. God considers us wicked and lazy if we are not a good steward. Read Mathew 25:14-26. For further study check out this article:

ACTION STEPS: I have given you plenty to do already. Read and then re-read this Blog today and don't just hear it, but do something with what you have heard. If you attended the "Raising Kings Intensive" ask yourself, "What have I done to change the reflection of the women in the mirror? Is she better because of her encounter with the Lion on the mountain?" Patience is what you do while you wait.
