Who are you from God's perspective? #24

As many of us head to work this morning, we see from God's Word that He sees us as co-workers in the ministry! Check this out:

2 Corinthians 6:1

6 We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.



Did you catch this "as workers together with Him" ? When you are a follower of Jesus it is understood that you are now a co-worker of God! You have a responsibility to minister to others! It is not your preacher's job! Well he has his responsibility to God too but what I mean is you have a job to do for the Lord! Here is your job description:



1. Love God

2. Love others

3. Share the gospel



Now as the 2 Corinthians verse goes on to say don;t take the grace of God in vain. Don't turn back on God! God in His mercy and grace has provided salvation to us as a gift through the death of His Son Jesus. Once we have received this gift do not think you can do whatever you want in life. You are now a servant of the most high God and have responsibilities to fulfill! Look at this verse:



1 Corinthians 6:20

For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.Now let me be clear here, you don't work for salvation, but you do prove salvation by serving Jesus joyfully! Do not take the grace and mercy of God lightly!



So this morning we see we are co-workers with God, we are to be faithful workers of God!
