CORINTHIANS 9:6-8
The King’s
business must be done in haste. It is very urgent. God expects you to obey His
instructions immediately. For instance soul winning must be done now. The more
you procrastinate the more souls die and head for hell thereby heaping the
blood of many on your head.
“I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.” (John 9:4)
Today is still the most opportune time to do God’s work. Win souls when you can. Do great things for the Lord when you have the means to do it. Pay your tithes while you can today. Restitute your ways now that you have the opportunity. Pray while you can. A time is coming when according to Ecclesiastes 12:1 the complacency would have gotten you to a point of no interest or fire for God. You are not getting any younger. After several years in Christ, what have you achieved for the Lord? Energy spent in serving the Lord will be renewed because it has been well spent.
Besides, the work of God must be done right from the heart. Ecclesiastes 9:10 says anything you want to do, do it with all your heart and might. If you want to praise God, do it from the bottom of your heart and with all you might. In addition, God’s work must be done cheerfully and joyfully 2 Corinthians 9:7 says God loves one who gives cheerfully. This means that He hates those who do His work or give to Him grudgingly. God will not reward labours that are cheerless and full of grumbling. You had better not give than to give with complaints.
Lastly, do God’s work, based on your love for Him. Pay your tithe, sow towards the building project, praise and worship Him because you love Him. You will have an enduring reward. Begin to serve the Master acceptably from today.

comes, when no man can work.
