Are You Doing Something for God?

“To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.”

COLOSSIANS 1:27-28

Ponder This

When I was a young Christian, I started out to do many things for the Lord, but it was a great day when I discovered God didn’t want me to do anything for Him. As a matter of fact, I couldn’t do anything for Him. You may say, “That’s confusing. I thought you were supposed to serve the Lord?”

Yes, but we don’t serve on our own. The Christian life is not difficult; the Christian life is totally impossible. None of us can live the Christian life. There’s only one person who ever lived the Christian life—Jesus! If the Christian life is lived where you live, it will be Jesus living in and through you.

Now, we all know we’re not saved by our own works. We all know salvation is a miracle. And we know the Christian life commences with a miracle, and we know it’s going to conclude with a miracle when we’re caught up to meet our Lord in the air. Not only does it commence with a miracle and conclude with a miracle, but it also continues with a miracle.

When was a time you felt like you were “doing something” for God?
Why is it important to rely on Christ as we live out our faith and serve God?
