Working for Jesus – Pastor Ty Choate

This is a subtitle for your new post

Day by Day believers are to live a life of consistent devotion and service to Christ: Colossians 3:23–24 – “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.”

This Involves 4 Truths:

1. Daily Surrender - Giving Each Day to Christ Every morning is a new opportunity to surrender our will to Jesus.

2. Faithful in the Small Things Working for Jesus isn’t always obvious - it’s often in the unnoticed acts of kindness, integrity, and

diligence.

3. Strength for Today, Hope for Tomorrow - Serving Jesus can be tiring, but He renews us daily.

4. Working for the Reward That Lasts - Our labor for Jesus has eternal significance.

Craig Groeschel says,

“Most of life and ministry is boring! But boring is the Pathway to Greatness! Consistency + Faithfulness x Time = a Lasting Impact.

These things close the Gap between good intentions and action! Keystone habits are small and consistent but causes a chain reaction that triggers right behaviors in other areas. Focus on one small habit…”

Commit to working for Jesus day by day—in every task, every conversation, and every moment. Even when no one is watching!

Amen?

Hope and Perspective by Pastor Ty In the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life” we see a great change in the character, George Bailey. What is different about George Bailey's life after Clarence (Angel) shows him what life would have been like without him? In terms of circumstances, absolutely nothing. At this point, for all he knows his life is exactly as it was a few hours before; Clarence did nothing to change that. The Bailey Building and Loan has still lost $8000- it could be forced to close and people could lose their life savings and jobs, rumors of embezzlement – the family ruined – George’s Arrest -Scandal! But George has changed! He has a new Attitude… a new Perspective on what’s really important Family, Friends and his Faith in God. It’s easy to forget in the movie that the real change has nothing to do with money and affection on Christmas Eve. The real change is within his soul. For the first time George Bailey is looking at life with new eyes. Same for a group of shepherds at the first Christmas – they had a change I attitude/perspective in Luke 2 the angels put on a celebration to announce the birth of Jesus. The shepherds went and found the baby Jesus. Their station in life had not changed but their attitude had: The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. (V20) May this Christmas give us a new perspective and a vertical focus all year long.
