"Surely the Lord GOD will do
nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants
the prophets."
(Amos 3:7 KJV)
How do you feel when some
makes a commitment to you then decides never to keep it? Can you imagine
the prophet being less than a man of his word? Wouldn't that be
devastating? Fortunately, we are blessed that God uses faithful men and
women to deliver His word. Notice how keeping a commitment used to be a
rather serious matter. It was understood that a promise had been made and it
wasn't honorable to break it. Today, it seems more likely that a commitment is
considered very flexible. We even find our own government being less than their
words at an accelerated pace. It appears that Promise is Broken in 2012
and 2013 will resonate with the same slogan! Have you trusted someone only
to be disappointed by that person in the long run? Don't you deserve
commitment?
The power of prophecy will help you achieve the life you want when you follow the Prophet's instructions. Read and discover these powerful principles to increase you alongside the prophetic word, then follow my simple instructions afterwards...
Here are Four Keys to Total Commitment:
-
A commitment kept shows
respect for others
Fannie Mae once said, "An ounce of performance is worth pounds of promises." When a promise is made to do something, there is another something or someone else counting on you. -
A commitment kept shows
respect for yourself
You are putting your personal integrity and reputation on the line. You are never willing to fail someone else who is depending on you. -
A commitment kept shows you
understand yourself
Sometimes I have over-committed. I think I can do more than I can. I have promised more than I can deliver based on my available time or abilities. A commitment that I can't keep is much worse than no promise at all. -
A commitment kept is
essential for success
From a business perspective, a company or a salesman that makes a promise that something will happen or a product will be delivered on a specified date could soon be out of business if that commitment isn't kept.
