Meditate On
But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out
His special favor on me... I have worked harder than any of the other apostles;
yet it was not I but God who was working through me by His grace.
1 Corinthians 15:10, NLT
Grace To
Do All Things Through Christ
The apostle Paul “worked harder than any of the other
apostles.” But he attributed his success to the favor or grace of God in his
life.
My friend, God’s grace will never provide you with
reasons to just sit around and wait for a miracle to fall into your lap. No, it
will give you faith to believe that God is working in and through you despite
your limitations. It will give you a get-up-and-go-for-it spirit. It will make
you say, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians
4:13)!
So in whatever role or position you find yourself right
now, see the Lord’s favor empowering you to do what you need to with
extraordinary diligence, creativity and effectiveness. The more you lean on His
grace in all that you do, the more you allow Him to make you an excellent and
extraordinary employee, manager, business person, parent or minister. That’s
how you allow Him to work in and through you to bring you from one level of
success to another!
BLESSINGS
JOSEPH PRINCE
