What About You

WHAT ABOUT YOU

2 Cor 5:17-19
17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling
people to him.
NLT

We all have responsibilities towards God. Among other reasons God saved us so we can save lost souls for Him. Our text today says He has given us the task of reconciling people to Him.
To do this work God has generously empowered us just as Jesus did the disciples before sending them out (see Luke 9:1-2); He has empowered us with talents, gifts, experiences (God wants to use our past experiences either good or bad for His glory) and above all He has given us the Holy spirit .
The question is, what are you doing with everything the lord has put at your disposal for His work? Do not forget that our works will be tested as Paul stated (see 1 Cor 3:13). And Jesus concerning our works said he will reward everyone according to his work (Rev 22:12). What would you be rewarded for? Or would you walk through the face of the earth only to return to the master like the unworthy servant? (matt 25:25) God forbid!
Go into today with a consciousness of the fact that you have a God-given assignment to fulfill here on earth. Many in past times have accomplished their work for God; many are doing theirs, but what about you?

Prayer: Thank God for bringing you to this glorious day. Pray that God will give you grace to fulfill your destiny. Ask the lord to
connect you with the right people for destiny enhancement and disconnect you from the wrong people.
