Grace for Work – Elvis Agyemang
Life is in stages, what you are destined to do now, you will not be permitted to do it at the next stage.
Jesus would say at certain times my hour has not yet come and in other times He would say the hour has come for the son of man to be glorified. There are working seasons with God;
John 9:4 KJV
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
Don’t miss your season of service in this Kingdom. Whatever you are graced to do has an expiry date. It will have to give way for another grace to use your vessel to accomplish another purpose. Keep serving until new grace shifts you into a new responsibility.
Serve God gracefully at home, at office, at school, at church and at everywhere that Jesus must be exalted. Don’t frustrate grace by being idle. Apostle Paul said;
1 Corinthians 15:10 KJV
But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
Grace is for labour. Grace is for work. Grace is the free gift of divine help that empowers us to work for rewards. The evidence of Grace is in what you keep doing heartily in the name of Jesus, even when you are not fully appreciated by men. Whiles you work, keep this in mind;
1 Corinthians 15:58 KJV
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Please let this reality sink in you. Grace is not a reward. It is help you receive without anything you do. But that help comes in to empower you to do what will give you many rewards here on earth and in the regeneration. “Knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord”. In the eyes of men it may look vain but anything done with Jesus in mind will never be in vain.
May you find Grace in all you are destined to do this year in Jesus name.
