JOBS FOR EVERYONE!!!
Wow, what a promise! During a so-called recession in the United States, the USA and other governments around the world are constantly working and planning to create more jobs. No jobs = no food, no house and other serious problems concur. Well, one thing is for sure even with all the promises of alleviating the poor, the poor will always be around. I hate to burst that bubble and I myself would like to see poverty stricken people taken care of but God is the only one with the power, and resources to alleviate the poor population of the world and He said that “ye have the poor with you always,…”. But…
On the other hand Christ did promise jobs to everyone. Now there is true relief! Mark 13:35 says “For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.” Well, there you have it you do have a job opportunity, God left to every man his work. I believe that can be looked at in two perspectives. Number one, God left us His work - the work of salvation, the work of preaching and teaching the Word of God to every creature. Then number two, God left every man his own work - your race, your own course in life within which if you follow after Christ you will fulfill your work just as the apostle Paul!!! Just a thought from my devotions today.
