You pray on Sunday. You hustle on Monday. But they never talk to each other. The Sons of Issachar had one skill — they understood the times and knew what to do. David surrounded himself with these men. That's one reason he prospered. But here's the problem: you can't develop that skill if you're fragmented.

Here's what hit me:

→ Fragmentation creates noise — you can't hear God over your own chaos

→ Your business decisions are disconnected from your spiritual discernment

→ Integrated leaders don't hustle — they discern, wait, and move with God David didn't miss moments. He could read the times because he was whole. His worship informed his warfare. His private relationship with God shaped his public decisions.

The question is: Are you seeing the times clearly, or are you so fragmented that you're missing what's right in front of you? — — —
