Blessed for Doing His work

“When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be blessed” (Luke 12:43 NCV)

The above promise tells you how to receive a blessing from God. It's simple: stay busy doing what God has equipped you to do. The following passage asserts that God has created you in accordance with Jesus's handiwork to perform the good works he has prepared for you to do.

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” (Eph. 2:10 NIV)

Everybody has the ability to do good works, even you!

Depending on the gifting and skill level each person has received from God, the size and type of good works vary. Some can do much, some can do small, but everybody can do something.

“When someone has been given much, much will be required in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required.” (Luke 12:48 NLT)

Therefore

“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” (1 Cor. 15:58)

“For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do.” (Heb. 6:10)
