HAVE A MIND TO WORK
So we built the wall, and the entire wall was joined together up to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.
Nehemiah 4:6
If you are going to achieve anything for
the Lord you must have a mind to work. If you are going to advance God’s
kingdom you must have the mind to work. If you are going to change lives and
advance humanity you must have the mind to work.
There is a place for you at the top.
However, in order to get to the top, you must have a mind to work. You can be
the difference that you want to see and there will be profit in all your
labour.
In all labor there is profit, but idle
chatter leads only to poverty.
Proverbs 14:23
So put your hands to the plough and engage
in God’s work. You can do God’s work in your unique way, utilizing your unique
gift. You are necessary and you can advance God’s kingdom. Your unique
personality, gifts and creativity are needed in this world.
We are God’s servants and servants to one another.
If you don’t want to serve others you can’t go very far in life. The greatest
in the kingdom is the servant of all. Jesus said that He did not come to be
served but to serve. We are here to serve and make a difference.
For even the Son of Man did not come to be
served, but to serve and to give His life a ransom for many.
Mark 10:45
Whatever you do for the Lord is not in
vain. You are doing God’s work and advancing His kingdom. You can make tremendous
impact when you have a mind to work.
Therefore, my beloved, be steadfast,
immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing your labor is not
in vain in the Lord.
1 Corinthians 15:58
Thought of the day: I can make tremendous
impact when I have a mind to work.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for an
opportunity to work and advance Your Kingdom, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
