SEEKING FOR JOB IN THE MIDST OF JOBS
The
growth of of unemployed increases day by day, every year some million numbers
of graduate join the number of the unemployed. There is more request for jobs
than there are jobs and so the teeming population of the unemployed remains jobless
doing nothing.
If
you are a Christian, you can’t be jobless unless you are disobedient to God; if
you have not been doing something for a very long time is because you are lazy
and and disobedient or you don’t believe that there is God.
Lu
10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers
are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth
labourers into his harvest.
There
is so much work to be done in the Kingdom of God and there are fewer labourers
and yet you are complaining that there is no JOB?
God
is calling out for anyone and every one to join in working for the salvation of
souls and He is a great rewarder to all those who would say yes.
When
I was in school I dedicated every Saturday for evangelisms when I go alone from
house to house and on the streets preaching and when I came out of school, my
mum wanted me get a job but when it wasn’t forth coming, I didn’t sat at home,
I dedicated my life to teaching children in my neigborhood God’s word. Though I
didn’t know much about the bible (infact I do steal people’s sermon then to
preach) I would teach them anyway, pray with them and I continued. I know God
needed workers, why should I be begging men for job when God is offering me one
which doesn’t require my qualifications but only my availability?
Does
God pay if I decide to work for Him? the answer is yes, infact, I started by
teaching kids in my rural area, today am teaching nations and most importantly,
none of my mates who are doctors or lawyers or engineers could boast of having
a better life than what God is rewarding me with.
The
blessing of working for God though culminates in heaven, but it starts right
here on earth.
Jesus
said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers
or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the
gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and
brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and
in the age to come eternal life. Mark 10:29-30
God
would pay you with house and properties, riches and wealth, health and healing,
joy and peace when you chose to answer His call to win souls for the kingdom.
God pays with money, with what money can buy and with what money can never buy.
Someone
may say, but God didn’t call me like appearing to me in a dream or me having
any special encounter well, pastor Promise didn’t have any special encounter
himself, he just love God and wanted to join the train of soul winners.
Christ
has said to all believers, ‘And he said to them, "Go into all the world
and preach the gospel to the whole creation’. Mark 16:15
No
man who sincerely serves God that is poor in any way, and no organization or
government or company can reward you than God. One day one of my cousins asked
me, what are my doing for a living? I replied, going from street to street to
preach, she replied, I mean, how do you pay your bills? And I said, by teaching
kids and going from street to street preaching. She got confused because though
she is a Christian but she doesn’t believe God can reward someone literalily
without the person having to beg people for support.
Today
I invite every Christian who loves God to answer His calling to win souls. I’ll
offer you some basic ministerial training (right now there are already more
than 80 soul winners undergoing this training through a well managed whatsapp
group) that’ll assist you be more effective as a soul winner for God.
If
you are in Harare, I invite you to join The Ministers Chapel and grow as a soul
winner. Being a soul winner for God is the best job you can ever do because it
has the best reward both here on earth and in eternity.
I’ll
begin to take in new people who would want to undergo this basic ministerial
training though whatsapp group; this training would sure give you an edge in
soul winning.
God
bless you
