GETTING JOB

GETTING JOB Ecclesiastes 9:10-12 Devotional:- “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or wisdom in the grave where you are going” (V10) NKJV      The economic situation in many countries has caused many people to become jobless. Statistics show that a good percentage of people are without a job, especially in this part of the world. This has led many families into a financial mess and has caused an increase in crime. You as a child of God must not remain a victim of joblessness. Sometimes we make our certificate a barrier to ourselves from getting jobs or creating jobs. Many people are higher than the jobs available. But you should know that it is a sin not to be working and yet be eating. (2 Thessalonians 3:10). As much as there are jobs and advertisements of vacancies, as many are jobless people.

OBEY THE LORD

OBEY THE LORD 

Scripture Reading: 1 John 3:1-5
Devotional:- “And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure” (V. 3)

    The act of obedience to God is an act of love and the act of love is an act of worship. A child that is always obeying the parents enjoys the favour of the parents. So, also as we obey the Lord in all that we do we gain the favour of God (Psalms 5:12). So, singing songs of praises to God while we are disobeying Him is not worship.

The word of God says, if you love me, you will obey my commandment (John 14:15). The word of God says, this is the love of God, that we keep His commandment. The importance of we keeping His commandment is that He guides us into His way of favour and we willingly follow Him to our blessings (Isaiah 48:17). The instructions of the Lord is for our good (Isaiah 1:19). The challenge with man is that the devil often wants him to feel that the way of God is not pleasurable.

Friend, we need to ask for the grace of God to help us to always obey the instructions of the Lord. This is love and this is faith. Every moment of our lives, we should allow the Holy Spirit to guide us (Proverbs 3:5-6). We should not put God’s instructions aside. He knows more than we do and He can lead us to success. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always obey you in all my ways.

“OBEDIENCE TO GOD IS COOPERATING WITH GOD TO FULFILL HIS COUNSEL”
