Theme; Our Labor in the Lord is not in Vain

Introduction:

When we work, we are expecting for a Salary at the middle or end of the month. But how about when we work in the vine yard of our Lord? Will He gives us a salary, award, payments, or not?

Let us interpret this text

What is the Meaning Of the word Labor?

“ Our Labor in the Lord is Not in Vain”

This Word means-The aggregation of all human physical and mental effort used in creation of goods and service.

What kinds of labor that It is not Vain from the sight of God? What Kinds of labor that is in vain in the sight of God?

A; Labor in our Spiritual Food

John 6:27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food

that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his 

Labor that is not vain in the eyes of God

We can do it by investing our time reading the Bible and listening to His Divine Message Every Sunday

B; Help the brethrensActs 20:35 

In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak,

remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Hebrews 6:10 God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped

his people and continue to help them.

We can do this by helping one another who are in need, not thinking what we can get from them not because you are force but because you are move by the Holy Spirit

"“Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during the plowing season and

harvest you must rest."Exodus 34:21 NIV

C; Observance on the seventh Day

In the sight of God it is very Important that you will set aside one Day to praise and worship him. This is the reason Why He Gives you life, why he bless you, why he protected you, why he heals you…. And so on..! Did you faithfully set aside one Day for God? If not, its not too late start it now?

“Simply let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.” Matthew 5:37

What is the Labor that is in vain to God?

A; Example on MarthaLuke 10:38-42

v;38  As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him.V;39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. V;40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”v;41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, v;42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.

Mark this important words from Jesus.. “Martha, Martha,”  “you are worried and upset about many things.

Our God is a Rich God, He will bless Those who are doing, and seeking his Kingdom.

His righteousness and all this things shall be added unto you.
