UNFORGIVEN

  UNFORGIVEN Genesis 4:1-11 Devotional:- “So the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen?” (v.6) NKJV It is ignorance for people to think unforgiven is a way of paying back people who offended them. Unforgiven is actually not against anyone but against oneself. It is always a trick of the enemy to steal our joy. Any time the enemy sees people happy, he always uses the trick of unforgiven to steal their joy. This is because he knows that joy will produce our strength (Nehemiah 8:10). Cain could not forgive his brother, and the enemy helped him develop his unforgiven into bitterness till he became a murderer and destroyed himself. He could not succeed on earth. Observe that when some people offends you, it makes you get bitter and unhappy. If you even try to keep it off your mind as though it does not affect you yet, when you remember or see the person, your mind suddenly becomes sorrowful and bitter.

MADE TO SERVE GOD

MADE TO SERVE GOD 

1 Corinthians 3:5-17
Devotional – “For we are both God's workers. And you are God's field. You are God's building. (V.9 NLT)


    God put you on earth to make contributions and make a difference with your life. Another purpose of your life is to serve the Lord wherever you are. You are created to add to the earth and not just to take from it. This purpose of your life is called ministry or service.

It is very important that you live in this consciousness, you were created to serve God (Ephesians 2:10). Wherever you are either in the school or in the office, be sure you are serving God and fulfilling your purpose. 

God saved you to serve Him. Your work, business or academic is also a work and a service to the Lord (Ephesians 6:5-7). God redeemed you to do His holy work everywhere in your life. It is service that gives value to your life (2 Timothy 1:9). Ministry is not only for pastors but for all members of the body of Christ. We are not to sit and wait for heaven, we are saved to serve other. To serve others and God with your profession is to use it to solve problems.

You are not only saved but called to serve God. Your call to salvation include your call to service (Matthew 11:28-30).  One of the reasons you need to connect to the church family is to serve other believers to fulfill your purpose. Some ministries are hidden and some are open but all are the same before the Lord. Small or hidden ministries often make the biggest difference. You are in that church to contribute a major part. Stop being self-centered. God commanded you to serve (Matthew 20:25-26). Remember, you will only be rewarded in eternity for your service here. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me not to fail you in my work
