Be Strong And Immovable
Always Work
Enthusiastically For The Lord
Scripture
1 Corinthians 15
58 So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.
Observation
I
watched someone this week exemplify this verse!
She
didn’t have to do what she did! It was not even her responsibility to do what
she did, but because no one else was willing to own the task she did it! And
she didn’t just do the job; she did it with a lot of joy, compassion, and with
great enthusiasm.
I
know that she made God smile! It is refreshing to be around people like that.
Going
the second mile, doing more than we are asked to do, doing what we do like we
are doing it for Jesus, these are all signs of a heart surrendered to Christ.
He
must increase and you and I must decrease!
If a soldier demands that you carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles.
Colossians 3:17
17 And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.
Colossians 3:23
23 Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.
Matthew 25
40 “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!’
Application
I
want to serve the Lord the way this young person did this week. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for allowing me to see Jesus in action through the life of
this young woman. I pray that You bless her and her family. Don’t ever let her
lose her love and her zeal for You. May Your face shine brightly on her. Give
her the desires of her heart, answer all of her prayers, and make her and her
husband’s plans successful!
