THE WAY OF THE ANT is diligence, good relationship, understanding times and season, thriving in challenging conditions and lots more.
Wisdom dictates that we go to the ant and learn of her way
Proverbs 6:6-8
“Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
[7]Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
[8]Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.”
LESSONS
- The ant has season for working and resting. if we rest when we ought to work it will badly reflect in our output. If you are given a task or you undertake to do a job, do it with all your heart. The ant is very disciplined with timing that is why you don’t see them through out the year.
1 Chronicles 12:32
“And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.”
- The ant do not joke with salutation, they respect one another. When an ant meets another on the way, they touch one another before proceeding on their journey. This speaks volumes. they don’t despise, they value their relationship.
In our endeavours, we will go far if we start by greeting that will progress over time to even partnership.
- The ant relies on other ants in execution of a task, they are not lone rangers. If one ant finds food, it means every other ant has seen food, you see them in a line carrying the food. Don’t be scare to share ideas with other.
- The ant never leaves an injured ant behind, Let’s earn to lift one another.
