“Do It Unto God”
October 2013
Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)
23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
The majority of people live life feeling under paid and under appreciated. On the road to greatness, it is not uncommon to have to do things outside of your comfort zone. However, many of us have been placed in positions we've never imagined being at this junction of life; making it easy to become lazy, distracted, and bitter. Switching your focus to God and developing a Kingdom mind set will give your soul the freedom it so desperately longs for. Whatever you do, whether it be working, serving, parenting, going to school, working out or taking care of a loved one; do yourself a favor and “Do It Unto God”! Doing what you do unto God will not only enrich your character, it will improve your quality of life and raise your capacity for greatness.
Week 1 Oct. 7 2013: No Dues, Just Due Season
Don’t believe the hype about having to pay your dues to get to the top. Jesus has already paid your debts in full! You are free to serve God with your whole heart in pursuit of fulfilling your Kingdom purpose on Earth. Your due season is God’s predetermined time of blessing for you. In the meantime, while you’re doing what you do, remind yourself you are working for the most high God. Allow this God consciousness to effect your attitude and your gratitude. The Holy Spirit is there right beside you to comfort and guide in your day to day tasks. How much more would you achieve if you imagined God as your boss each day?
Activate your faith by remembering although you may be underpaid today, there is an inheritance from God coming as a reward to you which is the big pay off. Don’t break before the breakthrough! Remember, you will reap if you hang in there. In the meantime, you might as well serve with joy and faith. Wherever life takes you, your only job is to serve God with all your heart and not faint before your due season!
Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

You don’t have to compromise your integrity or step on others to get ahead. What is more, you need not compete or force your way through an open door. When you “Do It Unto God”, your gift will make room for you! The talents God has placed within you are getting ready to break forth. You are no longer limited by your positioning. No matter where you are or what you are doing, your gift will get you to the next level. Trust it, nurture it and hold onto this word. It’s a simple one. Here is a daily mantra; “My gift is making room for me right now, in Jesus Name”. Now, that’s a powerful way to keep your "Faith Rocking"!
