YOU HAVE A PART TO PLAY

Ephesians 4:16

“From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.”[KJV]

“What have you done for Jesus…” , this line from a song written by my friend Uti touches my heart whenever I listen to it. It is rather sad that many believers have a “clinical” relationship with the Lord. This is what I mean, a patient goes to the doctor only when he is sick; such persons go to the Lord only when they have problems. Why do you serve God? Why do you go to church? Is it only to have all your problems solved? Do you go to the gathering of believers only to ‘tap’ anointing?

You see, friends, God has blessed you with gifts and talents. You have something to contribute too. As a joint in this body, you too can help the body to “be fitly joined together and compacted” by what you supply. You may not be on the pulpit, but you can pray for your pastor. You have something to contribute. Here is Paul “Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.” (Romans 12:6-8).

As you go into today, you can start contributing by sharing this devotional, giving out a tract, saying a prayer for a colleague.

Prayer: Thank God for blessing you with an opportunity to be contributor to what He is doing on the earth.

Pray for grace to contribute effectively wherever you find yourself.
