THERE IS ALWAYS A LAST CHANCE, MAYBE THIS IS YOURS.
Luke 13:6-9
He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.
Jesus used to speak in parable to His followers. This is one of such parables, but this one requires your utmost attention.
A farmer planted a particular tree in his garden, hired a gardener to be working in that garden and had an expectation. What was his expectation? He expected the tree to bear fruits.
After the third year of hard work and investment in the garden, the tree refused to bear fruit. Though it grew to become a big tree full of leaves and life, but it was fruitless. The farmer therefore decided to cut it off.
The farmer was not moved by the size of the tree. He was not as much interested in greenness of the tree. What he wanted was fruit. He didn't plant it only to cover ground and produce leaves. The purpose of the tree was to bear fruit.
My dear friend, have you grown big and flourishing in life? Thank God for that. But are you fulfilling the original purpose why God planted you into the planet earth?
Do you realize God planted you into that office, that business, that ministry, that family, that community, and that place where you are with a specific expectation? Yes, God has expectations over your life. The question now is this:
ARE YOU FULFILLING WHAT GOD CREATED AND BLESSED YOU TO DO?
Thank God for the timely intervention and intercession of the man labouring in the farm.
He pleaded for more application of manure, but also pleaded for the last chance.
When the tree got another manure, it would be happy, but it never knew it was its last grace.
Yes, people are praying and God is keeping, preserving and increasing you. But it may be your last grace if you don't start to fulfill your purpose. God is not happy with a fruitless child. God is not happy with a selfish child. Grace has limit. Patience can be exhausted. Don't wait until you are hit hard before you take the issue of God's expectation over you serious.
Don't wait until you start loosing the grace, the blessings, the favour, and God's provisions before you stand to do that which God has commissioned you to do.
Be blessed.
My prayer for you today:
I pray that God will not remove and replace you in Jesus name Amen.
Scripture meditation for today - Revelation 2:5
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

WALKING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE LEADERS
Romans 8:14
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Tourists need guides. Pilgrims need someone to help them in their journey. Students need teacher. Apprentice needs master. Learners need trainer.
If you are traveling by air and you desire to arrive your desired destination alive, you need an experience pilot.
Everyone needs a leader or a mentor to be successful in life. The knowledge, experience and expertise of the leader are great assets that will help the follower not to be misguided. The commitment, constancy, and faithfulness of the follower are all essential for him to get to where he is going.
Nobody knows a product more than its designer and manufacturer. Nobody knows you more than your Maker. You don't even know yourself as much as God knows you. He formed you and put you here on earth to fulfill a predetermined purpose.
Now, if you are going to achieve your divine purpose, you must allow God to teach, train and lead you. A lot of people have led themselves into errors. Many have been led into problems by other people. When a blind man becomes a guide for another blind man, both will end up in a ditch.
As a Christian and God's child, you have no right to lead yourself. Your life is not yours. You can't live it as you like. You belong to Christ. He designed you. He formed you. He determined your purpose.
God who owns you and designed your life's purpose is the only One who knows how you will get there.
He is the one who sent His Holy Spirit to help you in your journey of life. He understands the way. He knows the terrain of the road. He has the strength to carry you where it becomes necessary.
When you allow the Spirit of God to lead you, you will never miss your mark.
Listen to this:
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual -1 Corinthians 2:12-13.
Can you see that the vital information and knowledge you need can only be imparted to you through the teachings of the Holy Spirit? As a child of God, you need to allow the Spirit of God to lead and teach you in order to fulfill your destiny. As you study the bible and build an interpersonal relationship with God through prayer, you will know Him more and start to enjoy His leadings. God bless you.
My prayer for you today: May the Spirit of the Almighty God guide and lead you so that you won't miss your way and mark in life in Jesus name Amen.
Scripture meditation for today: Galatians 5:16, 25
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
