Living for the Lord is not always a cakewalk. While He has many perks and blessings to bestow on those who follow Him, He also gives each of His children callings and tasks to accomplish in their faith walk. These works not only strengthen us and help us grow, but they also help the Lord reach souls with the message that He wants the whole world to hear. He may not ask you to do something bizarre or embarrassing like one of the prophets had to do, but the Lord has called each one of us to do a special work for Him, and has put us in the place where we can fulfill that calling. He has also given us the skills and tools and spiritual gifts necessary to accomplish our goals. All that He asks you to provide is your manpower—your hands, your feet, your tongue, your whole being.

“God has given each of you a gift from His great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God Himself is speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to Him forever and ever! Amen.” (1 Peter 4:10-11)

What has the Lord called you to do? Is it a task that seems bigger or harder than you imagined? Don’t worry; He does not give more than we can bear. And He does not ask us to do these things on our own. He is ready, willing and able to come alongside you and help you with your work. Don’t get discouraged, neither be afraid. For if the Lord has called you, you can only succeed as you submit to His will. He will never let you fail if you trust Him and obey His instructions, no matter how strange or illogical they may seem at first.

“This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9 NLT)

Don’t complain or grumble about what God gives you to do. Thank Him and give Him glory for what He wants to accomplish in your life. And as you do all with the strength and energy that God supplies, your life will bring glory to God through Yeshua our Messiah who helps you fulfill God’s will for you.

Do you ever feel small or insignificant in your faith? Do you think that you can’t measure up to the level of devotion that you see in other believers? Neither you nor I can allow the devil to lie to us that we are undeserving of ALL of God’s wonderful promises and blessings. Yeshua, our High Priest, has mediated a better covenant which was established on better promises. He fulfilled Jeremiah’s prophecy in Jeremiah 31 that says,

“I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. None of them will need to teach his neighbor or his brother saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all shall know Me, from the LEAST to the GREATEST of them. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” (Jeremiah 31: 33-34 & Hebrews 8:10-12)

Whether you are the least or the greatest (or somewhere in between) in your faith walk, ALL of God’s mercy is available to you. None of your sins are remembered if they are under the blood of Yeshua. The Lord God is your God, and you are His people. He is at work, even in you right now, to transform your mind and write His laws on your heart. Don’t give up! All you are doing, from the smallest deed to the greatest act of faith, is noticed and appreciated by the Lord. He has put all the resources of Heaven at your disposal to help you in your work, and He will reward you for your faithful service when you stand before Him one day.

“For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.” (2 Corinthians 1:20 NLT)

ALL of Yeshua’s promises for YOU are “Yes! And Amen!” Embrace His love and blessings today!
