It’s not in vain

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord.

Primary Text

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be firm (steadfast), immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord [always being superior, excelling, doing more than enough in the service of the Lord], knowing and being continually aware that your labor in the Lord is not futile [it is never wasted or to no purpose].” 1 Corinthians 15v58 (AMP)

Are you losing motivation and questioning the purpose of your work for the Lord? Don’t be. Remain steadfast, and immovable in it, in fact abound in this work, knowing that whatever you do for the Lord is not in vain. The good Lord continue to strengthen you to do every work He will have you do in Jesus name, amen. His grace is sufficient for you and His strength is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12v9). Galatians 6v9&10 (AMP) encourages us that “And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith [those who belong to God’s family with you, the believers].”

Supplementary Text

“Dear friends, even though I am talking like this I really don’t believe that what I am saying applies to you. I am confident you are producing the good fruit that comes along with your salvation. For God is not unfair. How can He forget your hard work for Him, or forget the way you used to show your love for Him – and still do – by helping His children? And we are anxious that you keep right on loving others as long as life lasts, so that you will get your full reward. Then, knowing what lies ahead for you, you won’t become bored with being a Christian nor become spiritually dull and indifferent, but you will be anxious to follow the example of those who receive all that God has promised them because of their strong faith and patience.” Hebrews 6v9-12 (TLB)

Prayer

Father, I thank You for Your Word. I pray for the strength to continue to do all of Your will, all of the time in Jesus name, amen.
