A MAN DILIGENT IN HIS BUSINESS

Diligence Can Take You Before Kings

ANCHOR SCRIPTURE

Proverbs 22:29 (KJV) “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.”

1. BE DILIGENT

Diligence means working hard, consistently and responsibly.

Don't just be gifted—be dependable.

2. PURSUE EXCELLENCE

Colossians 3:23 (KJV) “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord...”

Give your best even when nobody is watching.

Excellence attracts attention.

3. BE CONSISTENT

Success is built through small things done faithfully over time.

Don't work hard only when people are watching.

Consistency turns effort into achievement.

4. DEVELOP YOUR GIFT

Proverbs 18:16 (KJV) “A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.”

Your gift may open the door, but diligence helps you stay there.

Keep learning.
Keep improving.
Keep growing.

5. DON'T DESPISE SMALL BEGINNINGS

Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do it well.

Great opportunities often begin with small responsibilities.
