PASSION FOR EXCELLENCE

SCRIPTURE: Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. – Daniel 6:3
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your passion for excellence determines your portion in destiny.
 
Excellence is the quality of being outstanding. It is the key to eminence and prominence. In order to escape mediocrity or average existence, you must embrace excellence.
 
Your passion for excellence determines your portion in destiny. It is your passion for excellence that determines the level of your impact in your generation. You cannot do things shabbily and expect any meaningful mark in your generation.
 
Excellence is more evangelistic than mediocrity; it is more generation-impacting than mediocrity.
 
From our anchor scripture above, we can infer that Daniel rose to prominence in Babylon on the wings of excellence. So, excellence magnetizes prominence and prominence facilitates the making of impact.
 
According to Genesis 41:39-40, we also see that Joseph’s rise became confirmed the moment he deployed excellence with his potential in interpreting Pharaoh’s dreams. The magicians of Egypt tried but could not give the interpretations of Pharaoh’s dreams, but Joseph was able to do it. In other words, he did it better than anyone else.
 
Beloved, whatever you do, ensure you give it your best. Make up your mind to do things with excellence. 
 
Remember this: Your passion for excellence determines your portion in destiny.
