*DAILY DEW 20/MAY/2025* *Diligence is Self-Motivated* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men."* (Colossians 3:23) _Bible Insight_ Self-motivation is that ability to drive oneself to work diligently, even when faced with challenges or setbacks. _Working Heartily_ In Colossians 3:23, Paul instructs believers to do their work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men. This verse highlights the importance of approaching our work with diligence and passion, motivated by a desire to please God. _Pleasing God_ When we work with the mindset of pleasing God, our diligence becomes self-motivated. We are driven by a sense of responsibility to Him, rather than external pressures or rewards. This motivation empowers us to excel in our endeavors. _Beyond Human Approval_ By focusing on pleasing God, we transcend the need for human approval or recognition. Our diligence is fueled by a deeper sense of purpose and accountability to Him. _Application_ The lesson from Colossians 3:23 is that diligence is self-motivated when we depend on pleasing God. By working heartily as for the Lord, we cultivate a strong work ethic and a sense of purpose that goes beyond human expectations. This principle transforms our approach to work and daily life. _MEDITATION:_ *"Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going."* (Jim Rohn) *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Mr_Positive_Impact* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_May,2025* ❤ *Facebook Link:* https://www.facebook.com/share/1ZXrcgLmwm/ Please follow *David Joshua Egbochuo* on Facebook for more positive impact contents.
