STRATEGIC POSITIONING AND PRODUCTIVITY (12)

*Good morning beloved. I believe your night was restful and refreshing. Scripture says, weeping may(has) endured for a night but joy comes in the morning. I do not know how you spent your night indeed but I have good news for you and it is that your joy comes this morning. Sorrow vanishes from you, pain travels far from you and never to return again. There shall be no loss whatsoever in your camp. The grace of God engenders total recovery of all that is required for your fulfilment and impact in Jesus name!

*Our text this month is Matthew 5:13-16 and it reads thus: “Your lives are like salt among the people. But if you, like salt, become bland, how can your ‘saltiness’ be restored? Flavourless salt is good for nothing and will be thrown out and trampled on by others. “Your lives light up the world. For how can you hide a city that stands on a hilltop? And who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it’s placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light. 16 So don’t hide your light! Let it shine brightly before others, so that your commendable works will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your Father in heaven.” (TPT).

*Another important role salt plays is that it ENHANCES THE COLOUR of a substance. This means that it improves the quality of colours inherent in the substance. It also adds value to the colour. This presupposes that such a substance has colour in it prior the introduction of salt but much more than having colour, it has the possibilities to be better than its previous state. The inclusion of salt therefore makes the difference by activating the potentials to be more colourful. It unlocks the hidden beauty such substance carries because colour speaks of beauty, value and greatness.

*The implication of this is that every institutional system and structure or organization where believers find themselves has inherent potentials of beauty, impact and dynamism but it has to be activated by the one whom God has sent in there to make that happen - you. It then becomes the role of the believer in Christ to unravel these hidden treasures of greatness and beauty. Believers are called to make happen, what ordinarily cannot make itself happen or others can not make happen.

*By our thoughts, words, actions and our impact, it is expected that the possibilities in and around us should be unlocked. I therefore charge you to take it upon yourself deliberately to bring out the best in the places where you work. Believe me sincerely, it is not everything that is bad about the system where you work. There are many good things in there that can displace that bad record but you must find them and begin to make them known.

*What products, services, strategies, values, relationships, personalities carry the beauty of your organization? Begin to showcase them. Give them more rooms for expression and encourage them to step up to their next levels. That is how to enhance colour. Task people to do more than they have been doing. If you have young people in your organization, encourage them to be well behaved and do their best. Let the hardworking and productive staff not be hidden at a corner or transferred to the hinterland. Put them at the front.

*I pray for you this morning that the beauty of Jesus and the difference He makes in and through the life of a man shall begin to find expression in and through you. May your best gifts, talents, skills, products and services begin to find expression. May your glory and that of your organization be revealed. May you come out of your hiding place. May you have room to stand before kings and make God known. I pray that you henceforth begin to add greater value to human life, systems and structures in Jesus mighty name!
