Life is meaningless without God
"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom." Ecclesiastes 9:10.
These words were written by a man who was one of the greatest and wealthiest Kings on Earth - King Solomon. Solomon succeeded his father David as king at the early age of 20. He humbled himself before God in prayer and asked God for supernatural wisdom to lead the great people of Israel. God granted his request and Solomon became the wisest and wealthiest King during his time.
In order to secure his kingdom for a peaceful reign he arranged many marriages and political alliances with the neighboring kings. He built the greatest Palace, Temple, had many wives, children, fame and fortune, yet he was plagued by insecurity and depression in his later years. His search for satisfaction and security was almost scientific in its approach and through this process he discovered that life without God is a long, meaningless, and fruitless search for enjoyment.
True happiness and satisfaction is not in our power to accumulate or attain things, because we always want more than we can have, and sometimes have more than we want. His conclusion was that life is meaningless without God. Therefore, true satisfaction comes from being our best in who we are; doing our best in what we do; and living our best life each day.
Live as if today is all that you have and plan as if you have a hundred more years to dream dreams. Life is what you make it. You can create and rule your world to be the best, do your best and receive what's best with God's help.
Kingdom Declaration:
I will be my best and do my best to fulfill the mission of Jesus Christ to fill the earth with His glory.
