Text: John 4:34
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
We are all on this side of eternity for a definite purpose, and our days have been set by the One who sent us. Therefore, we must “work the works of Him who sent us while it is day, for the night is coming when no one can work.”
Serve Him now, while you have the opportunity. Remember your Creator and do His will while you still have the breath of life.
To fulfill your days is to know God personally and live under His guidance. It means surrendering and submitting to Him, agreeing with His ways, and walking in obedience to His will, ways, and counsel (Amos 3:3). It is to love what God loves and to hate what He hates—to love righteousness and reject iniquity.
A fulfilled life is lived when you do what God has ordained and designed you to do. Jesus declared, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work” (John 4:34).
One clear sign of fulfilling your purpose is the deep joy and satisfaction that comes from doing God’s will. This joy runs so deep that it sustains you even through rough seasons and raging storms.
Like the Apostle Paul, may we be able to declare at the end of our journey:
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for His appearing.” (2 Timothy 4:7–8, NIV)
Reflective Nugget: What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and lose his soul?
