Text: 1 Corinthians 15:58
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
One of the attributes of God is Omniscience. That means he is the All Knowing God. He knows all we do in secret and in the open. He knows the intentions behind all we do. People may misunderstand you and label you a controversial person but God understands you perfectly. Afterall, he made you and knows your hidden talents, strengths and weaknesses.
He knows all your labour and sacrifices both little and great to advance his kingdom. He is familiar with your struggles and your pains. Others may not appreciate your efforts but God surely does. Don’t let the devil discourage you by making you feel no one appreciate what you do.
When king Hezekiah was faced with a prophetic and divine death threat, he reminded God about all his faithful walk with God, he said, “ Remember now, O Lord, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly. 2 Kings 20:3.
Dorcas came back to life because her works while alive spoke for her even in death, and her life was restored- Acts 9:36-43
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.. 1 Corinthians 15:58.
Action Nugget: Continue steadfastly and soldier on valiantly, your labour prompted by love will not be in vain in the Lord.
