YOU SHALL EAT OF YOUR LABOUR: Devotion for Saturday August 29, 2015

YOU SHALL EAT OF YOUR LABOUR      Saturday August 29, 2015

Text: Isaiah 3:9 – 15       Memory verse: v 10

Ecclesiastics 6:2 say something that should make us pray about God’s blessings upon our lives. There is abundant encouragement to the righteous to trust in God, and for sinners to repent and return to Him. In today’s world, sinful living often appears glamorous, exciting, and clever. But sin is wrong, regardless of how society perceives it, and, in the long run, sin will make us miserable and destroy us. God tries to protect us by warning us about the harm we will cause ourselves by sinning. However, to the righteous, there is the promise that all will be well, they shall eat of their labour.

Eventually the righteous will receive God’s reward, and the wicked will receive their punishment. It is disheartening to see the wicked prosper, while we (Christians) struggle to obey God and follow his plan. However, let us keep holding on to God’s truth and take heart! God will bring about justice in the end, and He will reward those who have been faithful. Beloved, be faithful to the end.

Food for Thought: Are you still faithful to Him?

Prayer: Lord, make me faithful to you and grant that I will eat of my labour.
