“We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.” (2 Corinthians 5:8-11 KJV)
Today, I want to exhort you on the need to labour to be accepted of Him, whether we be absent or present with Him. Indeed we must labour to be accepted of Christ whether we live or die. We must labour, it is not a leisure walk, but it will take hard
work and labour. The Apostle Paul teaches that
we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ; and every man will recieve from Him a reward for what we did, whether good or bad.
We shall all be judged and rewarded. It is my
prayer that you will labour to be accepted of Him. I
pray that you will awaken and not live your life any how but to live in such a way that will be pleasing to Christ.
You must;
- Understand your mission
- Publish your visions
- Set faith goals
- Develop inspiring strategies
- Set up functional structures
- Give yourself wholly to your pursuit
- Maintain your focus
- Beware of things that destroy kings
These are the seven keys that will help you to labour to be accepted of Him;
Stay blessed; I love you!
