The wages of sin is death - Rom 6:23. Along with death comes the curse, which is the empowerment to fail, toil and be broken in every area of life. When you live a life of sin, and death comes upon you then you will experience manifestations of death is every aspect of your life. Death and the curse result in oppression, bondage, failure, regression, repression, lack, sickness, etc. in every area of a man's life.
Thank God for the gift of eternal life in Christ Jesus - Rom 6:23. Because of this gift you now have access to the blessing, the empowerment to excel, prosper and succeed in every area of your life. The package of eternal life includes, freedom from bondage and oppression, wisdom, favor, prosperity, health, excellence, progression, etc.
When you accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior over your life, you joined the right camp and made a choice for eternal life. Now you must be committed to fighting to lay hold on your eternal life package through praying, meditating on God's word, renewing your mind by the word, spending time in God's presence, listening to anointed messages, reading anointed books, etc.

Hold onto Your Dream
Joseph was seventeen years old when he had a dream that He will one day be a ruler. This dream did not come into manifestation until he was thirty years old - Gen 41:46. By that time thirteen years had passed.
In that thirteen year interval, Joseph was thrown into a pit and sold into slavery by his brothers. He ran his slave masters household but was eventually imprisoned for a crime that he did not commit. In prison he was given responsibilities for leading the prison. In the same prison he met the chief baker and the chief butler. He helped both of them by interpreting their dreams.
However the chief butler forgot about Joseph. The chief butler finally remembered Joseph when no one else in the kingdom could interpret Pharaoh's dream. Joseph was then invited into the presence of Pharaoh. He interpreted Pharaoh's dream and was elevated supernaturally to be Prime Minister.
Through all those years from the pit to slavery and to the prison, in the natural, it did not seem like Joseph's dream was coming to pass. However God was working things out such that Joseph was being positioned for supernatural promotion. At every stage of his life, Joseph was being prepared to become Prime Minister.
He was developing the character, tenacity, wisdom and people skills that he will need to succeed as Prime Minister. Even though it did not look like it, every step he took brought him closer to fulfilling his God-given dream. His focus remained on God and He believed that God would do what He said He would do.
Whatever God has promised you, He will do. God is not man that He will lie - Num 23:19. He is faithful to do what He said He would do - Isa 55:11 and 1 Th 5:24. Your life may not look like your dream right now. But be encouraged and stay steadfast. Prioritize your relationship with God and believe in His word. You are merely going through a phase on the way to your manifestation. What God said about you will truly come to pass.

Remain Committed to Your Assignment
The Bible records in Acts 10:38 that Jesus was anointed by God with the Holy Spirit and consequently with power. This anointing was for a purpose. Further in Acts 10:38, it is recorded that Jesus went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil, for God was with Him. It is clear that Jesus understood that the anointing upon Him was not just for Him but it was for Him to complete His assignment; He remained focus on His assignment.
When you become born again, after accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior, your spirit was recreated and the Holy Spirit began to dwell in your spirit - Jn 14:16-17 & 1 Jn 4:4. The Holy Spirit embodies the power of God. God knew that for you to accomplish all that He has called you to do, you will need the Holy Spirit. Furthermore according to 1 Jn 2:20, you have an anointing from God by virtue of the Holy Spirit.
This gift of the Holy Spirit and the subsequent anointing is not just for your personal life. They have been given to you so that you can accomplish your assignment. However in order to maximize the power and anointing of God, you must remain focused and dedicated to your assignment. Jesus did not detour from His assignment. he stayed the course in spite of temptations and potential distractions. It was clear to all those who were around Him that He was on a mission to fulfill His destiny - Luk 2:49. Make a commitment to stay focused on your assignment and with the help of the Holy Spirit, you will accomplish all that you we called to do.

Stay Committed to Your Assignment
Apostle Paul was declaring in 2 Ti 4:7 that he has completed the assignment that God called him unto. He remained faithful to the call upon his life and finished his race. Paul also referred to fighting the good fight. This was a reference to all the temptations that he faced to quit, be distracted or to run another race entirely.
You see you will always face potential distractions on the path to fulfilling your God-given purpose. These distractions will attempt to derail you. In order to be able to declare success as Paul did, you must be committed to our purpose irrespective of the situation and the environment.
Fill yourself up with the Word to strengthen your spirit man, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. As you do these you will be able to resist every attempt to distract you off your course. Then at the end of it all you will say, "I have completed my assignment on earth".

The Word is the source of Wisdom
Psa 51:6.
"Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom." NKJV.
God desires that you place the His Word, which is the truth, in your inner man, i.e. in your spirit. You do this by reading, hearing, and meditating on the Word of God until you get to the point of revelation.
Then when you face a situation, God will stir up wisdom based on the planted Word in your spirit man. Therefore your manifestation of wisdom is determined by the amount of God's Word that you have deposited in your spirit.
So plant the Word in your heart and you will walk in wisdom at the appointed time.
