TOPIC: GOD IS AT WORK IN YOU
Memory Verse: John 5:17
“But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.”
Bible Reading: Romans 8:28
“28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
APPRENTICESHIP OF GOD
Learning a trade as an apprentice isn’t an easy task. It takes determination, sacrifice and self-control. An apprentice can be older in age than his/her master, can be a graduate, master holder or even married person while the master is still single. Whatever your qualification or status, you have to obey your master. He can send you on errand while he continues with work. He can shout at you, insult you and ridicule you as your boss. The only reason for accepting all these is to learn the skill in the trade.
This is how it is with our God, although, He is God over all and above all but He sometimes allows us to experience shame, reproach, rejection and mockery before we acquire the needed skills to brings out His purpose for our lives. During those period, God is bringing out the best in us in order to be a master tomorrow.
In the days of King David as a boy, He acquired the needed skills; he was trained in the bush, He was built on how to war and defeat with the sling. He was trained on how to cast out evil spirit with His instrument and the Praise of God. He was already a leader of mighty men while King Saul was after him. God is impacting skills into us with what we are going through. He is working all things for our good. As long as we love God, He is giving us the needed skills for the mission ahead of us. He is building in us the ruggedness we will need ahead. He is working for our good. Be a faithful Apprentice, you will soon be freed.
Have a Great Day.
