Joining God’s Work
But Jesus answered them, “My Father has been working until now [He has never ceased working], and I too am working.” – John 5:17 AMP
I remember years ago being in a prison setting at a church revival meeting that was taking place over the course of several days.
I was a part of the intercessory prayer team, and part of my assignment during those meetings was to provide prayer support and encouragement to any of the men who may have been in need of such.
That wasn’t such an easy task, because it seemed that noone cared to ask for help; and most were only interested In coming to church to meet up with buddies from down the hall, and so on. It was a grievous sight to witness.
Yet, in spite of all of the negativity and chaos present in some of those meetings, it was in that environment that I learned the truth and reality of what Jesus said in the verse mentioned above, “My Father has been working until now [He has never ceased working]” .
When I took my eyes off of what was going wrong, and set my heart to seek and search out where God was working, He gave me the privilege to join Him In His work, and see many men eternally changed forever.
Right now our society is Chaotic, to say the least; but I humbly assure you that Our Father is still at work, in spite of.
Will we seek Him and join Him?
Father, we pray that you would open our eyes to see what you are doing in the earth at this time and season, and allow us the privilege to join you in that work.
In Christ’s Love,
Pastor Lowe
