Word of the Day: Receive God's blessing at work
23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
Colossians 3:23-24
The work God gives you is a blessing. Remember that many people don't even have a job. Some jobs may be very tiring or poorly paid, and God doesn't like this; He looks at injustice with sadness. The same chapter of Colossians says that those who commit injustice will receive the injustice they commit. No one will go unpunished.
However, one thing is certain: whatever your job, you should do it willingly, as for the Lord. Keeping this in mind will change your perspective. Instead of seeing your work as an unbearable burden, you will see it as a wonderful opportunity to serve God.
God wants to help you so that you can sustain yourself and do a good job. Pray to God, and talk to Him from the heart about your work. If you are unemployed, ask Him to give you a good job. If your work situation is challenging, pray for God to grant you strength and patience until you find a new job.
If your work situation is great and you are happy with your job, thank God for this great blessing and glorify Him in the way you work.
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Colossians 3:17
Receive God's blessing in your life this morning.
Yesterday's Word
Word of the day: Seek God and show Him your face
Many times, we don't feel fulfilled in life because we don't seek God or allow Him to change us. Receive this truth today: He loves you and wants to transform your life!
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:18
This verse invites us to deeply reflect on the spiritual transformation that occurs when we surrender to the Lord. It begins with the encouragement that all of us, as Christians, are called to live with unveiled faces. This means we don't need to hide who we are before God, for He knows us deeply and accepts us as we are.
When we turn to the Lord and seek His presence, something wonderful happens. We begin to reflect His glory, just as a mirror reflects the light shining upon it. As we behold the glory of God, we are transformed from glory to glory. This means that as we grow in our relationship with God, His image becomes more visible in us.
This transformation is not our own doing, but the work of the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. It is He who enables us to grow spiritually, to develop the character of Christ, and to reflect His glory to the world. Therefore, our role is to continually seek God's presence, allowing the Holy Spirit to work in us, and transforming us into His image.
May we embrace this promise of transformation, and daily seek the presence of God, so that with unveiled face, we may reflect His glory and be transformed from glory to glory by the Spirit of the Lord.
Day Before Yesterday's Word
God Is Waiting for You to Come Back
God wants to forgive you! Perhaps you're feeling separated and far from God, because you've done something wrong and your conscience weighs heavily on you.
Sin builds walls between us and God. Do you want to break these walls down and return to God's arms? The reality is that He is eager to forgive you. Thanks to Jesus' blood the path to forgiveness has been made simple!.. repent and confess your sin to God.
“Come now, let us settle the matter,”
says the Lord.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.
Isaiah 1:18
God is faithful and just. He will forgive you. Don't let pain or shame stop you from repenting. No matter how great your sin is, God is greater, and His love knows no bounds. His great love will cover your sins. He sent Jesus Christ to die for you on the cross; that's how immense His love for you is.
Don't reject God's love; don't delay in approaching Him to receive His forgiveness.
My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.
Psalm 51:17
Do you feel sorry for your sins? Tell God! He won't reject you; quite the opposite. The heavenly Father waits for you with open arms. He desires to receive you as His child. Give Him your whole being today.
