No Little People in God's Kingdom
Good morning, Immanuel. The King of Heaven has nobilitized our lives with dignifying purpose! God is for us! Let’s go for it today!
“And say to Archippus, ‘See that you fulfill the ministry that you have received in the Lord’” (Colossians 4:17).
We tend to think of ministry today as something for professionals. But the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 that God gave “us the ministry of reconciliation.” Who is us? Answer: anyone who is “in Christ Jesus.” If you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, you have received a ministry in the Lord.
Your life in Christ is not aimless, meaningless, or dull. Eternal gains are at stake in your ministry. You are a soldier of the cross, called to battle against spiritual forces of evil at work in the world today.
You may feel only weakness. But your weakness in His hands is a powerful weapon for the liberation of souls and the expansion of His glorious kingdom. Any intrusive thought that tends to dampen your zeal for the ministry you’ve received from our Lord cannot be from God.
Dear Immanuel family, the King of Heaven has nobilitized our lives with dignifying purpose! God is for us! Let’s go for it today!
