Relying On God At Work At All Times
Who we are doing our work for matters and can affect the meaning we give to our work. If we respect the people we work with and feel positively about our organization, we are more likely to want to do our best. But when we’ve been mistreated, or have issues with people at work, it’s easy to become discouraged, frustrated and even angry. Our judgment of people can have a negative impact on our motivation to do our best work.
Joseph had every reason to be angry and bitter. He was thrown in prison for something he didn’t do. Yet, Joseph continued to rely on God and served the warden with excellence. Because of that, he was put in charge of all of the prisoners. When the baker and the cupbearer, who had been sent there, appeared upset, Joseph showed his concern. He listened to them describe their disturbing dreams and provided the interpretation that God showed him. His kindness led the cupbearer to recommend Joseph to Pharaoh after Pharaoh had a disturbing dream that no one could interpret. Even then, Joseph did not try to make himself look good. He told Pharaoh that no one can interpret dreams but God. Then he provided the interpretation God gave him.
Because Joseph was faithful in prison, God put him over all of Egypt (Luke 16:10). God was with Joseph all along, preparing him, giving him wisdom and orchestrating the circumstances to fulfill His purposes.
If our motivation to do our best is influenced by the behaviors of others, our commitment to give our best effort will fluctuate. But what if you always relied on God in your work? Doing our work for God empowers us to consistently produce excellent results. How can you increase your reliance on God at work today?
Prayer
Father, forgive me for the times I allow my judgment of others to impact my attitude toward my work negatively. Increase my faith that you will use all the work I do to honor you for good. Work in my heart so I can maintain a positive attitude. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
