Hello everyone, we continue to talk about being zealous for God and today, our focus is to be zealous in serving the Lord and pursuing the purposes of God. As we consider the way God works in people’s lives, we know that each one has a special calling, a unique purpose and is enabled, wired, and designed differently by God to do what God has purposed for their lives. Paul talked about it and he said that he was living for ‘that for which’ Christ Jesus has laid hold of him. There is a ‘that for which’ or a purpose for which each one of us is living here and we are living for the Lord. Today, I want to encourage us to be enthusiastic regarding that purpose. In Romans chapter 12, verse 11, Paul wrote, he said, ‘never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord;’ this is the Amplified version. He is encouraging is as believers to be diligent which means that we are making a consistent effort to serve the Lord, put in our best, he says, aglow in the spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord. So, not with a spirit of dullness or a spirit of obligation or a spirit of heaviness where we feel that we have to do it and there is no other option. But God calls us to be willing workers in His vineyard and ultimately as we serve Him, we know that the increase will come from the Lord. With our eyes fixed on the Lord, each one of us can serve Him and give Him our best. I want us to be encouraged and stirred up to pursue the purposes of God and be zealous in serving the Lord. Some of the key things for us to really fired up to serve the Lord is firstly to know our purpose and secondly to partner together with God because we cannot complete this journey without journeying alongside God. I really want to invite us to make that time to seek the Lord, to know our purpose and every day journey together with the Lord, hear from Him, pray, worship Him and even as we do that, surely the Lord will strengthen us to move ahead in the path that He has shown us. Whatever we do, let us do it earnestly and unto the Lord. Colossians chapter 3, verse 23 says, ‘And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men.’ Our service of every kind is a service unto the Lord. Let’s keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and do what He has called us to do. Even as we do that, surely the Lord will bless the work of your hands. Let’s pray together, Heavenly Father, we thank you for every opportunity that you have given us to speak your word and be a blessing in different ways. I pray that you will move upon people’s hearts and many will arise to serve you and your kingdom and your people and that empowered by your Spirit, we together will experience a mighty move of the Holy Spirit among us. We just open ourselves to your powerful work and we invite you to come and stir us up, in Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
