Just Do You in 2025: Overcoming Distractions and Focusing on Your Purpose
In these last days, the enemy is working overtime to distract us from our God-given purpose. Distractions come in many forms, often disguised as harmless activities that consume our time without offering any real reward or compensation. It's crucial to recognize these distractions and take steps to eliminate them from our lives.
The Danger of Distractions
Daniel 7:25 (NIV)- "He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time."
a. Satan’s Strategy: The enemy seeks to wear out the saints, distracting them from their divine purpose.
2 Timothy 3:1-2 (NIV) "But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy."
a. *End Times Distractions: The last days are marked by self-centeredness and materialism, pulling people away from their spiritual focus.
The Cost of Distractions
Anything that consumes a significant portion of your time without offering substantial benefits can be a distraction. For instance, spending excessive time in front of the TV, passively consuming news, might not be beneficial. Ask yourself: Is this helping me pay my bills? Is it putting bread on my table? Or am I just contributing to the wealth of media personalities like Anderson Cooper, whose salary at CNN is around $20 million?
The term "media" originates from "medium," which has roots in the occult. The media's primary goal is to influence and shape public opinion. Today, news outlets often claim to make the news rather than just report it. Their focus is on attracting eyes and ears to boost ratings, which translates to money for the media companies and their stockholders.
The Need for Focus
These are days when we must be focused. Here are areas to concentrate on:
God-Given Assignment: Stay committed to the purpose God has placed in your heart.
Family: Invest time and energy in nurturing your family relationships.
Wealth Creation: Focus on building financial stability and creating wealth.
Personal Development: Continuously work on your growth and development.
Business: Dedicate time to growing and improving your business.
Friendship Creation: Build meaningful relationships with your neighbors and friends. Engage in activities like playing board games to de-stress from the negative noise around you.

Making Changes in 2025
In 2025, it's time to make some lifestyle changes. Politicians and lobbyists often operate with their own interests in mind, engineering society for their benefit. My advice to you is to focus on self-care and mind cleaning from these distractions. Reduce your intake of political and news distractions. Instead, listen to sermons and teachings that build you up in the most holy faith and motivate you.
Remember, you are much more than what others say you are. You are created in the image and likeness of God, designed to dominate your sphere of influence and leave a lasting legacy on earth. In 2025, it may seem selfish, but it's essential to remove yourself from distracting noises and "Just Do You!"
Conclusion
Here are five points to consider for making changes in your life:
1. Identify and Eliminate Distractions: Recognize what consumes your time without offering real benefits and take steps to remove these distractions.
2. Focus on Your Purpose: Stay committed to your God-given assignment and work towards fulfilling it.
3. Invest in Relationships: Spend quality time with your family and build meaningful friendships.
4. Prioritize Personal Growth: Continuously work on your personal development and growth.
5. Seek Spiritual Nourishment: Listen to sermons and teachings that build your faith and motivate you to achieve your goals.
By making these changes, you can ensure that 2025 is a year of focus, growth, and fulfillment. Remember, you have the power to overcome distractions and live a life of purpose and impact.
