The Blessing of God in everyday work

in #steemchurch7 years ago

Hello friends of steemit today I want to share with you a reflection on The Blessing of God at Work.

The bilblia speaks of man and work, this is a relationship that constituted the Lord since the time of Adam, we can see this in Genesis 2:15; "So the Lord God took the man, and put him in the garden of Eden, that he might till it and keep it."

Adam

Note that God had already constituted a work or labor for man and was to take care of all the creation of God in the garden, it was a job that Adam had to fulfill and in return he would receive his pay for that work we can see in Gen 2 : 16;"And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may eat;"

Adam would receive his part without much effort since God allowed him to have authority over creation, provided that he was in obedience to God, but he also received his reward for his disobedience.

we can see in Gen 3: 17-19; "The man said, Because you obeyed the voice of your wife, and ate of the tree of which I commanded you, saying, You shall not eat of it: cursed is the ground for your sake: with pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life.
Thorns and thistles will produce you, and you will eat plants of the field.
With the sweat of your face you will eat the bread until you return to the ground, because from it you were taken; you are dust, and you will return to dust. "

Here we can see that because of the disobedience of Adam God rebuked him to work to be able to feed with effort and sweat and lost authority in everything that God had given him, since it was the consequence of his disobedience eating the tree of good and of evil.

Source

in the book of **Ecclesiastes 4: 4-6 he says: ** "I have also seen that every work and every excellence of works arouses the envy of man against his neighbor." This is also vanity and affliction of spirit. The fool crosses his hands and eats his same meat. Better a fist full with rest, than both fists filled with work and affliction of spirit. "

The work done with excellence attracts satisfaction in man and God's blessing for his life, otherwise when the work is done in an improper or unfair way it can bring curses for himself and his offspring, since all work can be for good or for bad , sometimes it can awaken envy, discord, revenge and other works of the flesh in other people, either colleagues or close persons, even in relatives, but this will often depend on our attitude as a family man how to respond before this kind of situations.

We can fall into discord and lawsuits or rather be a blessing to those who attack us unfairly.

God rewards the work done with honesty and responsibility Hebrews 6: 7-8: "For the earth that drinks the rain that often falls on it, and produces grass profitable to those for whom it is plowed, receives blessing from God; that which produces thorns and thistles is reprobated, is about to be cursed, and its end is to be burned. "

Let us appreciate how God can bless the work of our hands when the earth is honestly tilled and the fruit of that work will be a blessing at the time it is received, but when it is done improperly it will be a curse for our lives, whatever it may be. our action only the Father of the Skies will give us the reward we deserve in his time.

Sort:  


God revealed to Adam: "With the sweat of your face you will eat the bread" (Genesis 3:19). Apart from being a temporary law, this was a given law for the salvation of Adam's soul. There is no real division between spiritual, mental and physical work. Work is essential for our progress, for the development of our character and for many satisfactions more than idlers can never enjoy.

For believers, is the blessed life synonymous with the successful life? Is it the Christian version of the good life? A loving marriage, obedient children, a vibrant ministry, a healthy body, a successful career, trusted friends, financial abundance — if these are the characteristics of a blessed life, then having all of them should translate into an extraordinarily blessed life.

Our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ have shown us through His example and His teachings that work is as important in heaven as it is on earth. God worked to create the heavens and the earth; He caused the seas to be grouped together in one place and the dry earth to appear; he made the grass, the herbs and the trees grow on the earth; formed the sun, the moon and the stars; he created all the marine and terrestrial living beings and, finally, he placed Adam and Eve on earth to take care of her and to have dominion over all living beings.

Amen and God be glorified in all times and places

God himself is a worker, he created the heaven and earth, and he rested on the seventh day he created us likewise in his own image, and as a result of this we must carry on his work on earth, Jesus said I work, just as my heavenly father works.
As mankind we must never relent idleness is the devil's workshop and to conquer this, we must work ceaselessly like God has given us dominion to

Thanks for this charge.

Most times people keep praying for God's blessing but they are not willing to do what will attract God's blessings.
It is only when we are doing something that we can easily pray and ask God to bless the work of our hands.
When we are diligent with what we are doing with the fear of God, He will surely release His blessings upon us.

So it is God who urges us to bless us and more when we are honest, always thinking about doing the right ones in front of Him, but the pride of man and disobedience stops the bandits .... Amen.

it is good to serve the Lord so that his blessing can shine upon us. it is good as a christain to work well. our kind of work should be good. so that it can please God and also man. if the kind of work you do is bad, it can bring curse to you and your generations

God enjoys blessing us.

(Deuteronomy 28:2-8) “And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God: {3} “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country. {4} “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks. {5} “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. {6} “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. {7} “The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. {8} “The LORD will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.

This is my prayer: O Lord, my God, Creator and Ruler of the universe, it is Your Will that human beings accept the duty of work. May the work I do bring growth in this life to me and those I love and help to extend the Kingdom of Christ. I love this write-up.

SHALOM!

Amen and let it be the name of God Glorified

This is a wonderful and great message. we can see that because of the disobedience of Adam God rebuked him to work to be able to feed with effort and sweat and lost authority in everything that God had given him, since it was the consequence of his disobedience eating the tree of good and of evil. The work done with excellence attracts satisfaction in man and God's blessing for his life, otherwise when the work is done in an improper or unfair way it can bring curses for himself and his offspring, since all work can be for good or for bad , sometimes it can awaken envy, discord, revenge and other works of the flesh in other people, either colleagues or close persons, even in relatives, but this will often depend on our attitude as a family man how to respond before this kind of situations.

In truth, God always had the purpose of blessing the man in all things, but disobedience and sin cut short those blessings. Thanks for your comment

it is great as a christain to function admirably. our sort of work ought to be great. with the goal that it can please God and furthermore man. in the event that the sort of work you do is awful, it can convey revile to you and your ages

If the work that man performs is horrible, we can only lose the direction to the Father so that He can take us out and take us to the place that is to his liking ..
