I know we’ve all heard of the saying that work hard, play hard that it is the way to a successful life.
Well, that is correct but it has its limitations because the life we live in is first of all spiritual before it’s physical.
It’s good to work hard and play hard but it only addresses the physical aspect of life.
If you want to live a life of Victory from the supernatural angle of life, you need to start with prayer. This is why the topic of our post is Pray Hard and Work Hard.
Another way you can say it is to pray like you will never need to work and work like you will never need prayer.
If you can live like this, you will definitely succeed in life.
In this post, I will be writing about how you can develop your prayer life and how you can work hard to get effective results.
How to develop an effective prayer life
Prayer simply means communicating with God. That is speaking to God and God also speaking to us.
You can also say prayer is making your thoughts and intentions known to God.
Prayer is your spirit communicating with God. It is our spirit God interfaces with because God is a Spirit and those who must worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth.
The model for praying can be found in the Bible in Matt 6:9-13
You can read it and it will show you how to start your prayer, how to end your prayers and the things you need to pray about.
The most effective way to pray is by reading the word of God and declaring it. The word of God is powerful and it does tremendous works.
Don’t pray using vain words instead, you should pray using the word of God. The word of God is life and it gives life when spoken.
How to work hard to get productive results.
To work hard and get effective results, you need to work smart because it is possible to work hard and not get a productive result.
For instance, constructing a car manually is hard work but you will get less productive results when compared to someone doing construction with a machine.
The word SMART is an acronym for Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely.
That means for you to work and achieve productive results you should work in a certain way.
Specific – You should know exactly what you want to achieve.
Measurable – The work you do should have landmarks to help you determine the level of success you have achieved.
Attainable – Your work should be tasks that should be doable.
Realistic – You should consider the resources you have when working. The resources you have will determine your result. Simply put that input determines your output.
You need to work with time. Put a time to everything you do. This will make your time and work more valuable
Conclusion
The point of this post is that you need to pray regularly and you also need to work hard all the time.
You should not do one and leave the other undone. One of the reasons I notice people hinder their success in life is that they focus on one aspect and abandon the other. A lot of people focus on hard work and ignore prayer.
You can start by practicing payer and working hard and see the result it produces within days or weeks.
