August 3, 2010 God-Given Tasks

Today’s Bible Reading:Nahum 1; Nahum 2; Nahum 3; John 5 (The Message)

Scripture Focus:

John 5:36 But the witness that really confirms me far exceeds John’s witness. It’s the work the Father gave me to complete. These very tasks, as I go about completing them, confirm that the Father, in fact, sent me.

Observation:

God gave Jesus certain tasks to complete, and as he completed them, it showed that God was working through him.

Application:

God has given me certain tasks to complete. Each person has a calling, and even a season where God is asking him or her to walk a certain path and complete a certain job.

If I look at my tasks as God-given, they take on much more meaning. Suddenly they’re not trivial or unimportant. Completing them in a godly manner shows that God is working through me, and it’s a witness to others.

Prayer:

Father God, I can only walk one day at a time. Help me to complete my God-given tasks today with diligence and cheerfulness.
