Love God Greatly - Psalm 119نمونہ

God’s desire is for His people to act and serve in unity and harmony with one another. When we have gained knowledge and become His servant, He desires us to serve and help others. He desires for us to pour out our gifts in service to the church and to others around us. Our knowledge and our gifts are not to edify and build up ourselves. They are to be used to glorify God through the expansion of the body of Christ. We may hesitate to serve and lead out of fear of failure. However, God knows us perfectly. He knows our weaknesses, our flaws, our failings. Yet, He chooses us anyway. In service to God, we are called to be faithful, not to be perfect. We are called to be available, not to be faultless. We are called to be part of the body…the part we were specifically designed to be. When we faithfully show up, God will do the rest. God is infinitely greater than any task that He assigns, and He remains faithful to us when we trust and obey.

Where is God calling you to serve Him? What fear or hesitation will you surrender to Him so that you can live out His commandments?

Father God, You are our Immanent God. You are totally self-sufficient, yet You choose Your imperfect children to carry out Your perfect plans. Lord, give us the boldness to take our rightful place in the body of Christ. Help us to unite and work together with understanding and compassion in our hearts. Remove any spirit of division, opposition, and chaos in Your Church. May we decrease individually so that You are magnified and glorified through us collectively. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
