It is unfortunate that many genuine Christians are unaware:
1. What their WORK (job, profession, vocation, business, etc) is turning them into against the WORD OF GOD in Christ for them in this World. So sad, so bad!
2. What their WORK (job, profession, vocation, business, etc) is turning them into against the WILL OF GOD in Christ for them in this World. So sad, so bad!
3. What their WORK (job, profession, vocation, business, etc) is turning them into against the WAY OF GOD in Christ for them in this World. So sad, so bad!
Why it is true that the Bible says that whatsoever your hand finds to do, you should do it with all your might. It is equally true that whatsoever you will do must be done to glorify God. True! Take note, take heed! (Ecclesiastes 9:10; Matthew 5:13-16; Colossians 3:16,17).
I usually tell people that you should not just take up a work because of the obvious benefits, but you must also look at the hidden consequences of the job, profession, vocation, business, etc or what the job WILL BE TURNING YOU INTO AGAINST YOUR DIVINE DESTINY IN CHRIST in this present earthly World and in the future heavenly World after death. True!
Is it not sad that:
1. Many genuine Christians as LAWYERS because of their kind of work have become professional LIARS in order to please their clients and unknowingly displease their God. So sad, so bad!
Don't be deceived, lying is still a sin against GOD and attracts a curse and a consequence. Take note, take heed! (Revelation 21:8).
2. Many genuine Christians as POLITICIANS because of their kind of work have become political CORRUPT (thieves) in other to please their fellow politicians and unknowingly displease their God. So sad, so bad!
Don't be deceived, corruption (stealing) is still a sin against GOD and attracts a curse and a consequence. Take note, take heed! (Proverbs 29:24; 1 Peter 4:15).
3. Many genuine Christians as ACCOUNTANTS because of their kind of work have become personally STINGY in other to please themselves and unknowingly displease their God. So sad, so bad!
Don't be deceived, stinginess is still a sin against GOD and attracts a curse and a consequence. Take note, take heed! (Proverbs 13:7; Luke 6:38).
4. Many genuine Christians as members of the POLICE FORCE because of their kind of work have become powerful OPPRESSORS in other to please the higher bidder and unknowingly displease their God. So sad, so bad!
Don't be deceived, being an oppressor is still a sin against GOD and attracts a curse and a consequence. Take note, take heed! (Job 27:13-23).
5. Many genuine Christians as BUSINESS PERSONS because of their kind of business has become DECEIVERS and CHEATERS in other to please themselves and unknowingly displease their God. So sad, so bad!
Don't be deceived, deceiving to cheat is still a sin against GOD and attracts a curse and a consequence. Take note, take heed! (Malachi 1:14).
6. And so on...
What has your WORK (job, profession, vocation, business, etc) turned you into against the WORD, WILL and WAY of God in Christ for you in this World?
Jesus Christ made it clear to us thus:
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. YOU CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON. But SEEK YOU FIRST the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU. (Matthew 6:24,33; 1 Timothy 6:6-12).
Therefore, always remember that God is not mocked, whatsoever you SOW, you will also REAP. If you sow to the flesh, you will by the flesh reap corruption. If you sow to the Spirit, you will by the Spirit reap peace and many more. (Galatians 6:7-10).
Now is the time to do a HONEST CHECK of your standing with God as par the kind of work you are doing and REPENT and REPOSITION yourself where necessary before it is too late for you says the Spirit of God. Now is the time! (Ephesians 5:15-18).
The Bible says to us thus:
Wherefore LET HIM THAT THINKS HE STANDS TAKE HEED LEST HE FALL. There had no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but GOD IS FAITHFUL, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it. (1 Corinthians 10:12,13).
Don't be deceived, YOU CAN STILL MAKE IT in that job, profession, vocation, business, etc STANDING FOR GOD. Yes, you will face some challenges, oppositions, delays, etc standing for God, but God is too faithful and unable to fail you at last. In due time, He will REWARD YOU and DISTINGUISH YOU. Yes, He will! True! (Hebrews 1:19; Hebrews 11:6; 1 Peter 5:6-10; 1 Corinthians 3:6-15; Philippians 4:13,19).
This is because FAITHFUL is He who has called you and is ABLE to do it. Halleluyah! (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
God bless you.
