GOOD LIKE YOUR FATHER

Genesis 1:31

Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good! And evening passed and morning came, marking the sixth day.


There is one thing we must have in mind, "it is the desire of our Heavenly Father that we should be like Him". He is good and He expects us to be good, we follow in His good nature. One of the attributes of the Heavenly Father's goodness is in the perfection of His work.


What can be said of your works?


Listen, the Psalmist sang:


Psalms 118:23

This is the Lord’s doing, and it is wonderful to see.


Look at those who walked with the Heavenly Father in scriptures, their works were wonderful to behold, is it when they worked in spiritual positions, Joseph and Daniel in interpretation of dreams and giving wise counsel; or the prophets when they delivered God's message or did miracles.


Their works were commendable when they were in political positions, Joseph and Daniel are still very good examples, no blemish was found in their work. What of the kings of Israel who were faithful to God, they ruled well and won battles or ensued peace by wisdom, the people rejoiced.


Even those who were servants or those who held the king's cups, their works were labeled good.


What is your work labeled as?


Are you like your Heavenly Father?


Colossians 3:23

Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.


I always say that a lazy person has no business in God's kingdom. Why do I say this? From Jesus' revelation:


John 15:2

He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more.


So dear brethren know that your work must be good as that of your Heavenly Father is, so put your mind at it, and of course He will help you.


Romans 12:6-8

In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you.

If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well.

If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.


Our work will be good just like that of our Heavenly.


So help us Good Lord.


He calls us blessed.


Love
