THAT I MAY KNOW HIM!(PHP.3:10)
HONESTLY WANT GOD TO MAKE YOU USABLE IN THESE TERRIBLE TIMES... CONSIDER YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY, (THE SATANIC TRUMP-CARD)(ISA.6:8) PART 3
Welcome back on board Flight(Christ Jesus Airlines) Hoping you enjoyed your flight.
From the first two parts of this subject, ( I don't know what you think,) but I feel we have established a fact that MONEY is a hindering factor in our desire of being used by God.
THIS NEXT LEVEL IS EVEN GOING TO BE MORE CONTROVERSIAL, I REALLY THINK SO, BECAUSE IT'S HIGHLY UNPOPULAR.
THIS THE PRACTICE Of WORKING ON SUNDAYS.
Perhaps, before I examine this practice as honestly and as objectively as I know how, I should begin with a (somewhat )personal experience, "somewhat," because it actually happened to my mom,and it became a guiding principle throughout her entire life on earth. She made sure to recount it to us,or anyone who cares enough to listen, whether you believe or not.
When I was 14 years old,(over five decades),a chorister in our local assembly of the Anglican church which was against the pentecostal revival then. She narrated to me a revelation of the RAPTURE she had. Yes,she was Godly gifted, though suppressed.
THE REVELATION
In the apparent revelation,she was watching her clothes on a Sunday,and then heard the sound of a trumpet and saw everyone running towards the sound,but her wet clothes were in hands and she was looking for a place to hang them and run along. She will see the clothes line and run to it, before she gets there, it's disappeared,she will see green grass ,but before she gets there,the grass will be no more.
AND HER SENSES NEVER TOLD HER TO THROW AWAY THE CLOTHES AND JOIN OTHERS IN THE RACE TO THE POSITION OF THE TRUMPET SOUND UNTIL SHE CAME OUT OF THE REVELATION. SINCE THAT DAY UNTIL HER DEATH, SHE OBSERVED SUNDAY AS THE JEWS OBSERVED THE SABATH.
Now,having clarified that,;
*WHAT IS OUR MOTIVE FOR WORKING ON SUNDAYS?*
Of course,as Christians,we call Sunday the Christian SABATH. Don't we think we should give It the
respect it deserves;
Moreover also I gave them my SABBATHS, to be a SIGN BETWEEN ME and THEM, that they might know that I AM THE LORD THAT SANCTIFY THEM. (Eze 20: 12)
What I have here is not to debate on which day should be observed, but as Christians (majority of Pentecostals and Evangelicals) there's no denying that we have accepted Sunday as our Sabbath,but are we treating It as such?
Is it not clear in God’s Word that He wants His people to gather together for worship and service to Him? Does not Hebrews 10.25 show, clearly, that God’s will for His Own is that they not forsake the gathering together?
Now, if God wants you in Church on Sunday, but you work on Sunday, then there is a problem. Is there not? "But pastor, I work on Sunday." I know. That’s the problem.
Why do you work on Sunday? "I think it’s important." You are mistaken. Nothing is more important than the saints gathering on Sunday.
"My position is more than a job. It’s a calling." Again, you are mistaken. Your job is only a job. When one receives a calling it comes from God, and the result is that he ministers to those who gather together on Sundays.
God’s Word and God’s Will are NEVER at cross purposes, so it is NEVER God’s Will for you to work on Sunday. NEVER. Therefore, when someone works on Sunday it is never to obey God, it is NEVER to glorify God.
Rather, it is to earn money, because I promise you, if you weren’t getting paid to work on Sunday you wouldn’t work on Sunday.
Now, perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps I am naive and misguided. But I am persuaded that it is almost certain that a person who works on Sunday works for the money such a job pays him. And if you are willing to work on Sunday for money then it must be the LOVE of MONEY that MOTIVATES you to so disobey God and to so abandon His revealed Will.
But That’s Not All. There Is Also The Means That Are Abandoned By Working On Sundays
By means of grace, the puritans referred to involvement in certain things, participation in certain practices, that God would use to impart saving grace to the lost soul and would impart sustaining grace to the saved soul.
I have something for you to consider. Is there anything which is more obviously a means of grace than the gathered meeting of God’s people for the preaching of God’s Word? My friend, nothing is more important an activity for every human being to involve in, to immerse in, than the preaching of the Word of God. It’s the means of grace. Not the only means of grace, but certainly the preeminent one.
Yet when one works on Sundays he abandons the means of grace. He forsakes it for work. He lowers its importance relative to earning money. That is at least foolish. And it is very likely prideful. Because we need God’s grace. Can’t do without it. It’s necessary for life.
As Well, Consider The Mess Created In Families By Working On Sundays
What mess is created in families by working on Sundays? The mess of confusion. Utter Especially the young ones. Confusion enough to prevent them from getting converted? Confusion enough to persuade them that they won’t need to go to Church when they reach adulthood? Yes.
You see, God’s desire is for you to love Him with all your heart, mind and soul. And to love God is to obey God, Second John 6. As well, to love God is to give Him glory, which means to treat Him as if He is most important PERSON IN OUR LIVES WHICH HE TRULY IS...NO GOD,NO US...NO ARGUMENT EXCEPT PERHAPS, YOU'RE AN ATHEIST.
Okay. You say God is most important, but you act like the job is more important. You say God should be glorified, but you behave in such a way that He is not properly glorified. And you expect your children to fear the Lord your God?
It’s a joke. It’s not going to happen. A God Who is feared is a God Who is obeyed. So if your kids do not see you obey God it is quite clear that the message you send to them by your actions is that God is not really a God Who is to be feared, not really a God Who is to be obeyed.
I am afraid that people who work on Sundays have perhaps erred from the faith. And though I do not want this to happen to you, I expect that someday those who work on Sundays will be PIERCED THROUGH with MANY SORROWS as a result of this sin of LOVING MONEY SO MUCH that they will EVEN WORK on SUNDAYS to GET IT.
So, what do I think you should do? If you work on Sundays, QUIT YOUR JOB. But what is the FIRST CONSIDERATION that enters your mind when you ENTERTAIN the NOTION of QUITTING YOUR JOB so you can go to Church on Sundays? You won’t make as MUCH MONEY at ANY OTHER JOB. So, it’s the MONEY that KEEPS YOU on a JOB that WORKS YOU on SUNDAYS. SOUNDS LIKE LOVE OF MONEY TO ME. These are just a few ways Satan is deceiving us with the love of money.
So,you see the many ploys the devil uses in keeping a lot of us under his lock and key, through the LOVE OF MONEY. NOW, YOU HAVE HEARD IT, I HAVE HEARD IT...ARE WE GOING TO WORK ON IT OR IGNORE IT?
May His Grace and Mercy be sufficient for us to make the right decision that will glorify God in our lives Amen!
ON OUR RETURN,BY HIS GRACE AND MERCY, WE TALK AGAIN ABOUT PASTORS AND THIS SUBJECT.
