It seems as if once we get to a comfortable place in our lives, our zeal for the things of God starts to wane. Our pursuit was relentless until we reached our version of success. Everyone’s comfort level is different. Some are satisfied with having a good job and their own place to stay. Others want a great paying career, family, and luxurious house and car. No matter where we are in the spectrum of comfort, we all have to fight the spirit of complacency.
Complacency is designed to keep us satisfied on the same level without desiring to move ahead. The enemy attempts to persuade us not to do as much as we used to due to the fact we’ve reached our goal. One thing we must realize is God’s goal for us is so much higher than the goal we set for ourselves.
As long as we’re living, we should desire more. Not just for ourselves but, for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. God created and desires for us to move from faith to faith and from glory to glory.
Romans 12:11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.
