A distraction is an obstacle to attention.

A distraction is an obstacle to attention.

Don’t allow anyone or anything distract you from the work God has planned for you to do.

Recognise that any concern, interest, or activity that takes your attention away from the things that really matter to God is a distraction, and you must refuse it.

Jesus said,

“Anyone who lets himself be distracted from the work I plan for him is not fit for the Kingdom of God”

(Luke 9:62 TLB).

Sometimes, you might want something so desperately that all your attention in prayer is given to it. Instead of praying progressively about your life and the lives of others, you spend your entire prayer time asking for this one thing. That’s a distraction!

The Bible says,

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart”

(Psalm 37:4 AMP).

Refuse to be distracted by the cares of this life. There’s so much God wants you to accomplish for Him, and that’s what you should be concerned about.

Refus to be anxious about anything, because you’re the King’s kid.

Your focus should be set on God and what He wants you to do for His glory and He’ll continually grant you the desires of your heart.

Can you identify anything (or anyone) that has constituted a distraction for you of late? Declare that you have God’s guidance and wisdom to deal with them, and that you remain focused on doing what God has called you to do.

STARVE your distractions and remain FOCUSED!
