What is it that God has called you to do? Are you doing it or are you avoiding it? Are you telling others the Good News or are you allowing others to be infiltrated by the news that the world is telling? Are you being a candle for the Lord or are you allowing your light to be blown out by the way you act in life?
We have to know who we are called to be and we have to be who and what God has called us to be. We have to understand that our blessings are connected to our obedience. God said if we are willing and obedient we shall eat the good of the land. He said that we are to trust and to obey. He wants us to keep His commandments and His statutes for this is one way that we show that we love Him.
Trusting God is not easy but yet God said if we trust Him and obey Him, He will be our God. If we as employees can be obedient to our employer by taking control of the flesh, by getting up out of bed, by getting to work on time, and fulfilling the tasks that they ask of us without murmuring and complaining, how much more should we be able to take control of our flesh, get up and give time to God, and do the things He asks of us. After all, He is the giver of life and every good thing that comes with life (even our jobs).
It's time to take God at His Word and walk in obedience to that Word.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Jeremiah 42:6
Whether it is pleasant or unpleasant, we will listen to the voice of the Lord our God to whom we are sending you, so that it may go well with us when we listen to the voice of the Lord our God.”
