Action – A Proof of Dissatisfaction

THURSDAY, 03 APRIL 2025

TOPIC: ACTION – A PROOF OF DISSATISFACTION

SCRIPTURE: And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us. Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.” 2 Kings 6:1-2

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Even if you don’t like your current circumstances, until you make practical moves to leave where you are, nothing will change.

It has been established that a major key to greatness, progress, and prosperity in life is dissatisfaction with current situation. If you are satisfied with where you are, you can hardly experience any progress, change or breakthrough in life. However, when you reach a point of deep dissatisfaction with poverty, mediocrity, failure, or stagnation, you are beginning to position yourself for success, increase, and prosperity.

Beloved, maybe you are saying, “I am dissatisfied with my current state, yet nothing has changed.” The truth is this: It is the moves you make that confirm your dissatisfaction with your situation, and not just your feeling or thought.  If your dissatisfaction remains a thought or feeling without action, your situation will never change. True dissatisfaction should propel you to take deliberate, intentional and practical steps that bring about progress and transformation.  Even if you don’t like your current circumstances, until you make practical moves to leave where you are, nothing will change. It is the steps you take that prove that you genuinely want something better out of life.

If you are truly dissatisfied with failure, you will take bold and strategic steps to rise above it.

For example, if a lady is still living with a man she is not married to and claims she dislikes the situation, her claims may not be taken seriously. It is only when she takes steps to leave or make amends that it becomes evident that she genuinely wants a change. Staying there and doing nothing means she is comfortable with her situation, whether she admits it or not.

Remember this: Even though you don’t like your current status in life, until you take bold, desperate actions to change your situation, nothing will shift.

ASSIGNMENTS:

1. Identify practical steps you need to take to move from where you are to where you need to be.
2. Take immediate action—do not delay or procrastinate.

PRAYER: Father, I receive the grace to take decisive and practical action steps to leave where I am and move to where I ought to be. Help me to overcome the spell of procrastination so I can act with urgency, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
