Everything comes to him who hustles while he waits.
There is a lot of wisdom in this statement and it's very true. Work didn't come as a result of the fall of man and it's certainly not a cruse on humanity. Proverbs 15:19 says:The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain. As a matter of fact the apostle Paul said in Romans 12:10-11 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord. Everyday we should be about the Fathers business! Everything comes to him who hustles while he waits. We are stewards of God's resources, therefore everything I'm involved with entails His resources, which makes it His business.

Kingdom Commonwealth
Kingdom Commonwealth is something that is vastly misunderstood or something most individuals have no concept of at all. The Apostle Paul stated in Ephesians 2:12
That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world
When you accepted Christ as your Savior you became a citizen in God's Kingdom (Eph. 2:19, Colossians 1:13) and thus you were made a part of the commonwealth. First things first; one must understand that in a Kingdom the King is Lord. This means, the King owns everything. There is no such thing as private ownership in a Kingdom. Everything belongs to the King and his citizens have the responsibility to manage his resources. The Kings resources have been entrusted to the individual. The individual owns nothing, but because he is a part of the Kingdom and the Kingdom is a commonwealth, this means every citizen has access to everything and anything he/she may need.
Praise God for this wonderful revelation on citizenship and commonwealth! Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
All things we need because we are citizens of a commonwealth called the Kingdom of Heaven!
