1 Corinthians 15:58 (NKJV) 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
What is the work of the Lord in our own lives?
The work of the Lord is different for each one of us. Most times, it will be wherever God has placed us. It is in that place that we need to focus on how and what He wants us to do.
It may be in our own personal situation. Or it might be on a job that we have. It could be in a school that we attend. It could be within our family or in our marriage, etc.
Anything that is right in front of us, and we are positioned to deal with, is our work. And we need to take it seriously.
We need to do His work in such a way that we give it our all and we do it by His strength, His wisdom and the leading of His spirit.
We need to do it as if we are doing it unto Him. We’re not doing it to please anyone other than our Father. And as we do so, we will be serving God and helping others.
It’s very simple. Wherever we are at any given time, we work with whatever opportunities God presents to us. And we do it the very best we can.
Colossians 3:23 (NKJV) 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men…
We can’t let man dictate to us how things should be done. We need to have an understanding of how our Father in heaven would like it done, and do it His way.
Be immovable and know that taking such a stance will be not for our own gain, but pleasing to God.
