Happy new month everyone and a welcome back to blogging to me. Before we get started with the normal rush hour activities, there's need to review the deals an individual can get by depending on human effort or on divine effort; our God in heaven's abilities to be successful in life.
What a man depends on determines the outcome of his productivity. Two people can run a race but may not arrive/finish at the same time. And it will not be the same amount of energy that will be exuded from them. One may finish and be panting and the other will not be breathless in same manner. How long it will take a man to reach his or her goals will depend on his/her source of dependence. In this view, one must also consider the durability of ones achievement from the means of achievement. So, let's look at the deals you get from depending on human effort and divine effort, then, you can choose your preferred choice.
Human Effort: You work much and earn little (An African preacher will put it this way; work like an elephant and eat like an ant).
Divine Effort: Work little and earn much(An African preacher will put it the other way; work like an ant and eat like an elephant. In this case, wisdom, planning and orderliness come into play). And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits Daniel 11:32.
Human Effort: Tiredness and body weariness determines the pace you can go. Yes! you can't cheat nature you must have been told.
Divine Effort:Tireless and continuous renewal of strength. But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint Isaiah 40:31.

Human Effort: Difficulty staying focus, making decisions and knowing the safest direction to follow. Especially in a world where people are very known to be copy cats.
Divine Effort: Easy to be focus and know the direction to take because you are not the one holding the rein. The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light Matthew 6:22.
Human Effort: Filled with disappointments. The easiest way to fail in life is to depend on the promises of man. I believe sometimes in life, you have been disappointed after been assured severally.
Divine Efforts: Filled with appointments. So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not
return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it
shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it Isaiah 55:11; But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him Hebrews 6:11
Human Effort: Expectant end/outcome is not guarantied.
Divine Effort: Expectant end/outcome is guarantied. For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off Proverbs 23:18.
