Choose to Serve God
Text: _now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee_ (Job 22:21)
You need to build a closer relationship with God. Learn to enjoy a close walk with God. If you read your Bible only on Sundays when you go to church, and after that, you close it until next Sunday, you can’t build a closer relationship with God. If you eat your earthly food three times daily, why do you think you can go without spiritual food for a whole day? I see God releasing grace upon you to be able to practice His Word. You need to find a place to serve God in the church. There are several units in the church where you can serve God. Don’t just be a benchwarmer in the church; God rewards only labourers. He doesn’t reward benchwarmers or onlookers. If you don’t belong to any unit or wing that is contributing something to the Kingdom of God, go and join one; stop sitting down in church and ‘warming the bench’. From today, be a contributing member in the body of Christ. As you keep doing that, God will keep rewarding you in the name of Jesus Christ!
If as a single for example, you find it difficult to pray, read your Bible, attend fellowship or be in service in the Kingdom and if your heart is not panting after God, the chances that you will develop these habits after marriage are slim. No serious-minded believer will want to go into a relationship with an unserious Christian. The Word of God says: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). I want you to know that a good husband or a good wife is an addition. Find a place, therefore, to serve God and He will give you the right partner. Choose kingdom service today!
Prayer:
Father, I receive grace to build a firm relationship with You. May I never miss out of You pursuing the wrong things in Jesus’ Name.
