The Wisdom Of Sons
Apostle Grace Lubega
1 Corinthians 9:18 (MSG); So am I getting anything out of it? Yes, as a matter of fact: the pleasure of proclaiming the Message at no cost to you. You don’t even have to pay my expenses!
It is maturity never to attach a price to your service in the gospel.
When you charge for the gospel, it demonstrates a lack of the wisdom in your sonship.
Sons do not require wages, sons understand that their portion is the INHERITANCE.
I have seen worshippers who will not minister at a conference until they are paid money; for them it is money before service.
I know Christians who cannot play instruments in church services unless they are paid for it; I know pastors who will not preach until they are paid for it.
Never seek to serve a man of God simply because of a pay cheque.
Serve with the purity of heart that knows that God is your TRUE REWARD.
Inheritance comes to such as these because they can be trusted with the household; they will not destroy those given to their care because in them, there is often no grain of selfishness.
FURTHER STUDY: Matthew 10:8, 2 Corinthians 12:15
GOLDE NUGGET:
Sons do not require wages, sons understand that their portion is the INHERITANCE.
PRAYER: Father, I thank you for this wisdom. These great truths build in me the character of a true minister of the gospel. My Lord, I understand that freely I have received and thus I freely give. My heart is in this gospel Lord, I can never seek for money as a reward. I serve with the joy of knowing that you and you alone are my portion.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
