“In a noisy world full of comparison, competition, and distractions you must Stay Focused On Your Ministry, because it’s easy to lose sight of your calling. But real fruitfulness comes when you fix your eyes on what God assigned to you—no more, no less. This is your reminder to tune out the noise and stay locked in your ministry.”

“And to make it your ambition to live quietly and peacefully, and to MIND YOUR OWN AFFAIRS and work with your hands, just as we directed you, so that you will behave properly toward outsiders [exhibiting good character, personal integrity, and moral courage worthy of the respect of the outside world], and be dependent on no one and in need of nothing [be self-supporting].” 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 AMP

With the advent of social media, many pastors are whiling away their time, commenting on matters that neither edify nor bring them closer to their mission. Worst still, it doesn’t put food on the table. What a shame!

A sign of weak character is when you see a minister who should be a standard become one who goes around poking their nose into matters that don’t concern them. Going all frenzy on not being able to stand unrighteousness, which is just a blatant lie, Stay Focused On Your Ministry

Dear God’s servant, be busy doing your own thing. Enough of trying to comment on other people’s posts. Enough of spying on other ministers who probably walked out on your ministry, Stay Focused On Your Ministry.

The Apostle Paul said, “Learn to be quiet.” It’s not everything you see that you say. It’s not everything you hear that you correct. It’s not everyone who says this or that that you try to listen to. It’s a great sign of a weak character. To learn to be quiet gives the idea that sometimes, it doesn’t come naturally. Sometimes, even though a person knows that it is common sense, yet, he or she must be taught this great principle. Learn to be quiet.

Then the Apostle Paul says, “Mind your own business.” He is saying:

a. Pay attention to your work.

b. No more busybody.

c. Face your front.

d. What others do or say, especially if it isn’t within your scope of influence, should be overlooked.

e. Don’t have a mental problem called “The Messianic Complex.”

f. Try to stop using your internet data irresponsibly.

When you do this, you will live a quiet and honorable life, which many times eludes some servants of God. It’s as though they have lost their dignity and self respect, to the point that they are easy targets for insults and abuse.

He, the Apostle Paul, also said, “You should work with your own hands.”

Stop being lazy.

Stop having an entitlement mentality.

Stop saying you are full-time in ministry when you actually don’t do ministry.

Stop wasting time watching TV, browsing on your phone, and commenting on matters that aren’t your business.

Do well to comment and share
