Start Small, Obey Big: A Charge to Men of Godly Value

Every great man you admire today once stood where you are—at the edge of a small beginning, faced with the decision to move or to wait. The truth is, there will never be a “perfect time” to start what God has placed in your heart. Many men waste precious years waiting for human approval before stepping into divine assignment. Brother, if God has trusted you with a vision, don’t despise it because it looks small. That small Bible study, that little prayer group, that simple business idea—it is God’s seed in your hands.

The trap of waiting for validation is deadly. If you need applause before obedience, you will never truly fulfill destiny. Men may not see what God has shown you, and that’s okay. Noah didn’t need a vote to build the ark; he needed obedience. What God has committed to you is not a suggestion; it’s a mandate. Say yes and start now. The oil flows when you pour it out, not when you keep it in the jar of hesitation.

Greatness begins in obscurity. When David killed lions and bears, no one clapped, but heaven took note. That same David who was ignored in the wilderness became a king. Do not underestimate the power of consistent obedience in small things. God measures faithfulness before He releases increase. Stop looking for stages; start building altars of faithfulness where you are.

This is your season to rise. Stop overthinking. Stop comparing your beginning with someone else’s middle. If you wait for perfect conditions, you will miss divine opportunities. Say yes, act now, and let heaven amplify what men ignore. God is not waiting for you to be famous; He is waiting for you to be faithful. Will you start today?

Assessment Questions:

1. Am I delaying obedience to God because I feel my resources or influence are too small?


2. Do I seek people’s validation more than God’s approval before acting on divine instructions?


3. What practical step can I take today to start, even if it feels insignificant?

BECOME AN INTENTIONAL MAN.

You were born a male but becoming a man is factor of a deliberate effort you must make daily through the strength of Christ.  To become the kind of man God has ordained you to become, you must understand the specific plan God ORDAINED for you. This can be done when you pay attention to God's personal dealing with you via His Word. Your first responsibility is to dwell in the presence of God. Your second responsibility is to submit to the instructions of the Father. Your third responsibility is to discover your dream (your calling or purpose or life assignment). Your third responsibility is to be intentional and diligent in your dream and produce result/solution. After all the above is in place, that's when you can think of dating/marriage.  These are not my words but how God dealt with Adam in the book of Genesis 2, before He presented a Woman to Him. So, if you think being a man is about chasing women and money. You are abusing yourself.  According to God's standard, the...

EMBRACE YOUR AUTHORITY

Dear Men of Godly Value, In the tapestry of life, you stand as pillars, either as fathers and husbands or as those destined for these sacred roles. Your strength lies not just in muscle and might, but in the clarity of your direction, forged by purpose and calling in Christ. Each step you take, every decision you make, contributes to the legacy you're building. As you navigate the complexities of life, remember the profound impact of fighting the good fight of faith. It is in this struggle that you find not only strength but also the unwavering clarity of your calling. Your authority as a male figure isn't rooted in dominance but in your commitment to divine purpose. Leading your generation, guiding your wife or lover, and nurturing your family all hinge on the authenticity of your connection with your calling. Without this alignment, the compass of your leadership may falter. So, embrace the journey, seek that constant clarity, and let the light of your faith illuminate your p...

THE NATURE OF A MAN'S VISION

Brothers, it is important for you to understand that the strenhth of your life dwells in the strength of your vision. Vision is the mental picture of the problems God has wired you to solve in the future through your purpose, calling or capacity. There is a healthy vision and unhealthy vision. A healthy vision is the type that is caught through the inspiration of God's Word in your heart. Unhealthy vision is the type that is feeds humans ego and pride. As a man, it is important for you to have a defined vision that is cultivated from God's Word. If you don't have a vision, you won't be able to feature in the future. As a man, where are you heading to in life, and what's dictating your direction in life? Is it God's personal dealings with you or human logic? Catching a vision starts with your self discovery, through the knowledge of God's Word. What do you see in the next five to twelve years from now? Whose problem are you hungry to solve? Whose pain do you ...
