THURSDAY MYSTERIES
TOPIC: REMEMBER YOUR HOUSE
TEXT: (JOSHUA 24:15b)
"But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." (KJV)
Our emphasis today would be on Joshua' statement;
"Me and my House".
It's a good thing to serve the Lord and walk in His ways, build intimacy with Him, and have a personal relationship with Him. But how about your house? Joshua said;
"we will serve the Lord".
Are you a kind of father or mother that's not interested on who your children serves? Are you a wife that's not interested on who your husband serves? Are you a kind of pastor that's just seeing ministry as a business that you're not interested on who the congregation are serving?
However, don't think that your house only refers to your family, besides even Joshua that made this statement, he was not only asking his family but the entire children of Israel. That brings us to the next scripture;
"As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith." (GALATIANS 6:10 KJV)
Joshua said as; "as for me and my house".
But in our time we have a greater house known as "The Household of Faith".
What's your contribution so far in regards to increasing this household? Or are we satisfied with the current number of people that are serving the Lord? When last did you have that dissatisfaction that you can also contribute your effort towards populating the household of faith? This hunger would only come to your spirit when you're ready to the take the bold step as written in this scripture;
"But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." (II TIMOTHY 4:5 KJV)
Therefore, as Believers you don't need a special ordination service as an Evangelist before you do evangelism, we're to do the work of an evangelist. Therefore, don't wait for the ordination, do the work.
As Believers one of our core mandate is to preach the Gospel of Christ unto all the nations of the earth. Turning their hearts to serve the only true God who sent His only begotten son Jesus Christ to die in order to save the world, that they all can also be part and members in The Household of Faith.
MYSTERY 1: When a Believer is not Self-Centered in his Faith, his Goal would be working towards populating the Household of Faith.
MYSTERY 2: Ignoring your Household in regards to them serving God is not you trying to fulfill the scripture that says "salvation is personal". Rather its a negligence of duty in regards to doing the work of an Evangelist.
PRAYER: O Lord my God I thank you for today and your Word, I pray that you help me do the work of an evangelist effectively that I would be able to populate the household of faith, in Jesus name Amen.
Beloveth be bless 🙏
