1 Corinthians 3:9(ESV)
For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, God's building.
We learned in our devotional yesterday that anyone regenerated in Christ with God’s life is God’s cultivated land. Christ must grow in us and produce out of us not fruit but the precious material of gold, silver, and precious stones for the building of God’s habitation on earth.
God’s work involves many different individuals with a variety of gifts and abilities. There are no superstars in this task, only team members performing their own special roles. We can become useful members of God’s team by setting aside our desires to receive glory for what we do.
Beloved, don’t seek the praise of men as you labour for Christ, it is comparatively worthless, Instead, seek approval from God as you labour for the price of the highest call.Thus, the building of God, the house of God and the church, is the increase of Christ, the enlargement of Christ in His own unlimitedness.Praise the Lord!!!
Prayer:
Abba Father, thank you for making me a worker in your field. Give me abundance of grace to stand for what you’ve called me for in this season in Jesus Name.Amen.
