DO IT WELL Monday December

Text: Ecclesiastics 9:10 Memory verse: v 10
Because
the feelings of intensity will be stilled at death, do whatever is done with
all the zeal and gusto you can muster. This is the advice of Solomon. Whatever
you have the opportunity and ability to do, do it with unwearied diligence, and
vigour and expedition. Adam Clarke Commentary states what is necessary to be
done in this life, in reference to one another “1. Turn from sin 2. Repent. 3. Frequent the ordinances of God, and
associate with the upright. 4. Read the Scriptures. 5. Pray for pardon. 6.
Believe on the Lord Jesus that you may obtain it. 7. Look for the gift of the
Holy Spirit. 8. Bring forth in their seasons the fruits of it-(a) Repentance,
(b) Faith; and (c) The Holy Spirit. 9. Live to get good. 10. And to do good.
11. And refer every purpose and act to the eternal world.”
How
well are you doing these things? We should understand that the responsibility
on us is to use every opportunity to do good, preach the word of God and affect
others for good. As you go out today, ensure you do good to someone either by
preaching or charity.
Food for Thought: How can you show love and concern for people?
Prayer: Help me O Lord to have genuine concern for your church and Christians at large in Jesus name.
